Algorithmic progress in recent years made it possible to simulate QCD with Nf=2 flavours of O(a)-improved Wilson fermions at very light quark masses. We present the current results for baryon spectrum states, the nucleon axial coupling and…

Chiral defect fermions in the background of an external, $2n$ dimensional gauge field are considered. Assuming first a finite extra dimension, we calculate the axial anomaly in a vector-like, gauge invariant model for arbitrary $n$, and the…

We discuss a novel manifestation of the $SU(2)$ global anomaly in an $SU(2)$ gauge theory with an odd number of chiral quark doublets and arbitrary Yukawa couplings. We argue that the massive 4-dim.($D=4$) Euclidean Dirac operator is…

Electroweak vacuum transition processes (sphalerons) in the early Universe provide a possible explanation of the baryon asymmetry. Anomaly theory suggests that these electroweak baryon number non-conserving processes are accompanied by the…
