An expression for the lattice effective action induced by chiral fermions in any even dimensions in terms of an overlap of two states is shown to have promising properties in two and four dimensions: The correct abelian anomaly is…

An expression for the lattice effective action induced by chiral fermions in any even dimensions in terms of an overlap of two states is shown to have promising properties in two dimensions: The correct abelian anomaly is reproduced and…

The overlap formulation is applied to calculate the chiral determinant on a two-dimensional torus with twisted boundary conditions. We evaluate first the continuum overlap, which is convergent and well-defined, and yields the correct string…

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…

The vacuum polarization due to chiral fermions on a 4--dimensional Euclidean lattice is calculated according to the overlap prescription. The fermions are coupled to weak and slowly varying background gauge and Higgs fields, and the…

The overlap formula for the chiral determinant is presented and the realization of gauge anomalies and gauge field toplogy in this context is discussed. The ability of the overlap formalism to deal with supersymmetric theories and…

The probability amplitude for tunneling between the Dirac vacua corresponding to different signs of a parity breaking fermionic mass $M$ in $2+1$ dimensions is studied, making contact with the continuum overlap formulation for chiral…

A few years ago some attention has been given to a fermionic action on the lattice, with a Wilson-like term which is chirally invariant but breaks the hypercubic space-time lattice symmetry. This action describes two Dirac fields in the…

Recently, Narayanan and Neuberger proposed that the fermion determinant for a lattice chiral gauge theory be defined by an overlap formula. The motivation for that formula comes from Kaplan's five dimensional lattice domain wall fermions.…

We discuss the chiral fermion in the Hamiltonian formalism of lattice gauge theory. Although the naive chiral charge operator does not commute with the Hamiltonian, the commutable one can be defined for the overlap fermion. The eigenvalues…

Taking into account of the boundary condition in the fifth direction which is derived from the lattice Wilson fermion, we develop a theory of five-dimensional fermion with kink-like and homogeneous masses in finite extent of the fifth…

After a brief introduction to the overlap two examples relating to topological properties of chiral fermion systems in interaction with gauge fields are presented: It is shown how the overlap preserves the continuum structure of exact…

Dynamical nature of the gauge degrees of freedom and its effect to fermion spectrum are studied at $\beta=\infty$ for two- and four-dimensional nonabelian chiral gauge theories in the vacuum overlap formalism. It is argued that the…

Overlap fermion on the lattice has been shown to properly reproduce topological aspects of gauge fields. In this paper, we review the derivation of Overlap fermion formalism in a torus of three space-time dimensions. Using the formalism, we…

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…

It is shown that the lattice overlap correctly reproduces the chiral determinant on a two dimensional torus in the presence of nontrivial background Polyakov loop variables.

We extend work by Callan and Harvey and show how the phase of the chiral fermion determinant in four dimensions is reproduced by zeromodes bound to a domain wall in five dimensions. The analysis could shed light on the applicability of…

We propose a new formulation of chiral fermions on a lattice, on the basis of a lattice extension of the covariant regularization scheme in continuum field theory. The species doublers do not emerge. The real part of the effective action is…

We study a relativistic spin-1/2 fermion subjected to a Dirac oscillator coupling and a constant magnetic field. An interplay between opposed chirality interactions culminates in the appearance of a relativistic quantum phase transition,…

In a Hamiltonian formalism we study chiral symmetry for lattice Fermions formulated in terms of Shockley surface states bound to a wall in an extra spatial dimension. For hadronic physics this provides a natural scheme for taking quark…
