We show that the 3450 U(1) chiral fermion theory can appear as the low energy effective field theory of a 1+1D local lattice model, with an on-site U(1) symmetry and finite-range interactions. The on-site U(1) symmetry means that the U(1)…
It is generally believed that the 1+1D model for a single chiral fermion does not exist by itself alone on lattice. The obstruction to such a lattice realization is the failure to reproduce the quantum anomalies of a chiral fermion in…
A non-perturbative lattice regularization of chiral fermions and bosons with anomaly-free symmetry $G$ in 1+1D spacetime is proposed. More precisely, we ask "whether there is a local short-range quantum Hamiltonian with a finite Hilbert…
Chiral field theories describe large classes of matter, from the edges of Quantum Hall systems to the electroweak sector of the Standard Model, but defining them on the lattice has been an ongoing challenge due to a no-go theorem precluding…
It is shown that discrete-time quantum walks can be used to digitize, i.e., to time discretize fermionic models of continuous-time lattice gauge theory. The resulting discrete-time dynamics is thus not only manifestly unitary, but also…
I demonstrate how chiral fermions with an exact gauge symmetry can appear on the d-dimensional boundary of a finite volume (d+1)-dimensional manifold, without any light mirror partners. The condition for the d-dimensional boundary theory to…
We combine a pair of independent Weyl fermions to compose a Dirac fermion on the four-dimensional Euclidean lattice. The obtained Dirac operator is antihermitian and does not reproduce anomaly under the usual chiral transformation. To…
We investigate a U(1) lattice chiral gauge theory with domain wall fermions and compact gauge fixing. In the reduced model limit, our perturbative and numerical investigations show that there exist no extra mirror chiral modes. The…
We propose a Hamiltonian framework for constructing chiral gauge theories on the lattice based on symmetry disentanglers: constant-depth circuits of local unitaries that transform not-on-site symmetries into on-site ones. When chiral…
We analyze the dynamics of an $SU_L(2)\otimes U_R(1)$ chiral gauge theory on a lattice with a large multifermion coupling $1\ll g_2 < \infty$. It is shown that no spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs; the ``spectator'' fermion $\psi_R(x)$…
In the 1+1D ultra-local lattice Hamiltonian for staggered fermions with a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, there are two conserved, integer-valued charges that flow in the continuum limit to the vector and axial charges of a massless Dirac…
A free fermion without doubler is formulated on 1+D dimensional discrete Minkowski space-time. The action is not hermitian but causes no harm. In 1+3 dimensional massless case the equation describes a single species of Dirac particle in the…
We discuss the problem of formulating the continuum limit of chiral gauge theories ($\chi$GT) in the absence of an explicitly gauge-invariant regulator for the fermions. A solution is proposed which is independent of the details of the…
Feynman rules for the vacuum amplitude of fermions coupled to external gauge and Higgs fields in a domain wall lattice model are derived using time--dependent perturbation theory. They have a clear and simple structure corresponding to…
We report on recent progress with the definition of lattice chiral gauge theories, using a lattice action that includes a discretized Lorentz gauge-fixing term. This gauge-fixing term has a unique global minimum, and allows us to use…
We present a numerical treatment of a novel non-perturbative lattice regularization of a $1+1d$ $SU(2)$ Chiral Gauge Theory. Our approach follows recent proposals that exploit the newly discovered connection between anomalies and…
In the last century the non-perturbative regularization of chiral fermions was a long-standing problem. We review how this problem was finally overcome by the formulation of a modified but exact form of chiral symmetry on the lattice. This…
A recently proposed formulation of chiral lattice gauge theories is reviewed, in which the locality and gauge invariance of the theory can be preserved if the fermion representation of the gauge group is anomaly-free.
We consider anomaly free combinations of chiral fermions coupled to $U(1)$ gauge fields on a 2D torus first in the continuum and then on the lattice in the overlap formulation. Both in the continuum and on the lattice, when the background…
In this paper, we propose that a simple model, in which fermions coupled to a dynamical lattice gauge field, can be engineered via the Floquet approach. The model possess both a independent Maxwell term and the local $Z_{2}$ gauge symmetry.…
