Among the many far-reaching consequences of the potential existence of a magnetic monopole, it induces topological zero modes in the Dirac equation, which were derived by Jackiw and Rebbi 46 years ago and have been elusive ever since. Here,…
We study the zero modes of the Abelian Dirac operator in any odd dimension. We use the stereographic projection between a $(2n-1)$ dimensional space and a $(2n-1)$ sphere embedded in a $2n$ dimensional space. It is shown that the Dirac…
We define an analogue of the Dirac operator for the degenerate affine Hecke-Clifford algebra. A main result is to relate the central characters of the degenerate affine Hecke-Clifford algebra with the central characters of the Sergeev…
In this paper, we define two generalisations of Dirac operators for Drinfeld's Hecke algebra. One generalisation, Parthasarathy operators inherit the notion of the Dirac inequality. The second generalisation, warped Dirac operators are such…
The existence of normalizable zero modes of the twisted Dirac operator is proven for a class of static Einstein-Yang-Mills background fields with a half-integer Chern-Simons number. The proof holds for any gauge group and applies to Dirac…
We study properties of the zero and near-zero eigenmodes of the overlap Dirac operator in compact U(1) gauge theory. In the confinement phase the exact zero-modes are localized as found by studying the values of the inverse participation…
We present a detailed mass classification of all possible zero-energy modes in one-dimensional Dirac systems. By introducing a linear mass term into the Dirac Hamiltonian, we find that the topologically protected zero-energy modes have the…
We derive the vector-like four dimensional overlap Dirac operator starting from a five dimensional Dirac action in the presence of a delta-function space-time defect. The effective operator is obtained by first integrating out all the…
We discuss some properties of zero and near-zero modes of the Dirac operator, as observed in a recent simulation of 2-flavor QCD. The quarks have been implemented with the so-called Chirally Improved Dirac operator, which obeys the…
Asymptotic behaviors of zero modes of the massless Dirac operator $H=\alpha\cdot D + Q(x)$ are discussed, where $\alpha= (\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \alpha_3)$ is the triple of $4 \times 4$ Dirac matrices, $ D=\frac{1}{i} \nabla_x$, and…
We revisit the problem of determining the zero modes of the Dirac operator on the Eguchi-Hanson space. It is well known that there are no normalisable zero modes, but such zero modes do appear when the Dirac operator is twisted by a $U(1)$…
The overlap Dirac operator at nonzero quark chemical potential involves the computation of the sign function of a non-Hermitian matrix. In this talk we present an iterative method, first proposed by us in Ref. [1], which allows for an…
We study the eigenvalue problem for a one-dimensional Dirac operator with a spatially varying ``mass'' term. It is well-known that when the mass function has the form of a kink, or \emph{domain wall}, transitioning between strictly positive…
The lattice studies in QCD demonstrate the nontrivial localization behavior of the eigenmodes of the 4D Euclidean Dirac operator considered as Hamiltonian of $4+1$ dimensional disordered system. We use the holographic viewpoint to provide…
We consider supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems in arbitrary dimensions on curved spaces with nontrivial gauge fields. The square of the Dirac operator serves as Hamiltonian. We derive a relation between the number of supercharges…
We compute the spectrum of the Dirac operator on 3-dimensional Heisenberg manifolds. The behavior under collapse to the 2-torus is studied. Depending on the spin structure either all eigenvalues tend to $\pm\infty$ or there are eigenvalues…
We investigate numerically the effect of regulating fermions in the presence of singular background fields in three dimensions. For this, we couple free lattice fermions to a background compact U(1) gauge field consisting of a…
We study two special cases of the equivariant index defined in part I of this series. We apply this index to deformations of Spin$^c$-Dirac operators, invariant under actions by possibly noncompact groups, with possibly noncompact orbit…
We analyze zero modes of the Dirac operator for SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We find that the zero modes are strongly localized in all 4 directions. The position of these lumps depends on the boundary conditions we use for the Dirac…
