We discuss the naive lattice fermion without the issue of doublers. A local lattice massless fermion action with chiral symmetry and hermiticity cannot avoid the doubling problem from the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem. Here we adopt the forward…

We propose a practical formulation of the overlap Dirac operator in lattice QCD that employs the diagonal Kenney-Laub rational iterates - expressed via their partial fraction decomposition - to approximate the matrix sign function. We…

We still extend the large class of Dirac operators decribing massless fermions on the lattice found recently, only requiring that such operators decompose into Weyl operators. After deriving general relations and constructions of operators,…

First, we review the Dirac operator folklore about basic analytic and geometrical properties of operators of Dirac type on compact manifolds with smooth boundary and on closed partitioned manifolds and show how these properties depend on…

We define a sparse hermitian lattice Dirac matrix, $H$, coupling $2n+1$ Dirac fermions. When $2n$ fermions are integrated out the induced action for the last fermion is a rational approximation to the hermitian overlap Dirac operator. We…

Consider a formally self-adjoint first order linear differential operator acting on pairs (2-columns) of complex-valued scalar fields over a 4-manifold without boundary. We examine the geometric content of such an operator and show that it…

Representing massless Dirac fermions on a spatial lattice poses a potential challenge known as the Fermion Doubling problem. Addition of a quadratic term to the Dirac Hamiltonian circumvents this problem. We show that the modified…

Ellipticity of boundary value problems is characterized in terms of the Calderon projector. The presence of topological obstructions for the chiral Dirac operator under local boundary conditions in even dimension is discussed. Functional…

The paper is concerned with the completeness property of root functions of the Dirac operator with summable complexvalued potential and non-regular boundary conditions. We also obtain explicit form for the fundamental solution system of the…

A way to identify the would-be zero-modes of staggered lattice fermions away from the continuum limit is presented. Our approach also identifies the chiralities of these modes, and their index is seen to be determined by gauge field…

A spinor theory on a space with linear Lie type noncommutativity among spatial coordinates is presented. The model is based on the Fourier space corresponding to spatial coordinates, as this Fourier space is commutative. When the group is…

A new non-Abelian gauge transformation for two-forms is introduced. Construction is based on a fixed map from the spacetime to the loop space which attachs a closed loop to each point of the spacetime. It is argued that this set-up is…

Recently, Grabowska and Kaplan proposed a four-dimensional lattice formulation of chiral gauge theories on the basis of a chiral overlap operator. We compute the classical continuum limit of the fermion number anomaly in this formulation.…

In this paper the conformal Dirac operator on the sphere is defined to be operating on the space of square-integrable Clifford algebra-valued functions. The spinorial Laplacian of order d>0 is defined and used to establish Sobolev embedding…

We present an adaptive multigrid solver for application to the non-Hermitian Wilson-Dirac system of QCD. The key components leading to the success of our proposed algorithm are the use of an adaptive projection onto coarse grids that…
