Magnetic skyrmions are localized chiral spin textures, which offer great promise to store and process information at the nanoscale. In the presence of asymmetric exchange interactions, their chirality, which governs their dynamics, is…

We numerically study the SU(2) gauge theory with two dynamical flavors of the domain-wall fermions in fundamental representation. The meson spectra and the residual mass are measured on three lattice volumes and at two values of gauge…
We calculate one loop corrections to the domain-wall quark propagator in QCD. We show how the wave function is renormalized in this theory. Especially we are interested in the behavior of the massless fermion mode, which exists near the…

The chiral anomaly is based on a non-conserved chiral charge and can happen in Dirac fermion systems under the influence of external electromagnetic fields. In this case, the spectral flow leads to a transfer of right- to left-moving…

The strange quark mass has been computed using a lattice action which possesses continuum--like chiral symmetry to good precision, namely the domain wall fermion action. This talk surveys this action and the recent calculation of m_s by the…
We compute non--perturbatively the renormalization coefficients of scalar and pseudoscalar operators, local vector and axial currents, conserved vector and axial currents, and $O_{LL}^{\Delta S=2}$ over a wide range of energy scales using a…
Chiral fermions can (presumably) be constructed by introducing two regulators, one for the gauge fields (e.g. a lattice), and another for the fermion functional integrals in a fixed (regulated) gauge field. This talk discusses cutoff…
We consider interactions of fermions with the domain wall bubbles produced during the first order phase transitions. New exact solution of Dirac equations and reflection coefficient are obtained.
When a quantum field theory has a symmetry, global or local like in gauge theories, in the tree or classical approximation formal manipulations lead to believe that the symmetry can also be implemented in the full quantum theory, provided…
We evaluate renormalization factors of the domain-wall fermion system with various improved gauge actions at one loop level. The renormalization factors are calculated for quark wave function, quark mass, bilinear quark operators, three-…

Within the domain wall-mediated electroweak baryogenesis, we study fermion scattering off a CP-violating wall in the background of an uniform magnetic field. In particular, we calculate the asymmetry between the reflection coefficients for…
Novel chirally symmetric fermion actions containing the minimum amount of fermion doubling have been recently proposed in the literature. We study the symmetries and renormalization of these actions and find that in each case, discrete…
