I review some of the difficulties associated with chiral symmetry in the context of a lattice regulator. I discuss the structure of Wilson Fermions when the hopping parameter is in the vicinity of its critical value. Here one flavor…
Recently, two solutions have been proposed to the long standing problem of $\mathcal{CP}$-symmetry on the lattice, which is particularly evident when considering the construction of chiral gauge theories. The first, based on a lattice…
The construction of massless Majorana fermions with chiral Yukawa couplings on the lattice is considered. We find topological obstructions tightly linked to those underlying the Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem. In contradistinction to chiral…
A model for lattice fermion is proposed which is, (i) free from doublers, (ii) hermitian, and (iii) chirally invariant. The price paid is the loss of hypercubic and reflection symmetries in the lattice action. Thanks to the…
We give a simple derivation of the Virasoro constraints in the Kontsevich model, first derived by Witten. We generalize the method to a model of unitary matrices, for which we find a new set of Virasoro constraints. Finally we discuss the…
Chiral fermions resisted being put on the lattice for twenty years. This raised the suspicion that asymptotically free chiral gauge theories were not renormalizable outside perturbation theory and therefore could not be mathematically…
Introducing a new and universally applicable discretizing technique, I construct a class of local and unitary lattice theories of Weyl neutrinos; this solves a longstanding and allegedly unsolvable problem in quantum field theory. En route,…
I review the ongoing attempts to define chiral gauge theories using the lattice regularization.
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.
Overlap formalism deals with the construction of chiral gauge theories on the lattice. These set of lectures provide a pedagogical introduction to the subject with emphasis on chiral anomalies and gauge field topology. Subtleties associated…
We summarize our recent investigations of lattice QCD with dynamical overlap fermions. We sketch algorithmic issues and our approach to solving them. We show our measurement of the topological susceptibility. We describe a computation of…
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 propose a formulation of lattice fermions with one-sided differences that is hermitian, chirally symmetric (barring a bare mass term) and completely free of doubling. To obtain the axial anomaly in perturbation theory it was necessary to…
We propose an algebraic lattice supersymmetry formulation which has an exact supersymmetry on the lattice. We show how lattice version of chiral conditions can be imposed to satisfy an exact lattice supersymmetry algebra. The species…
A formalism of gauge and Lorentz covariant Schwinger-Dyson equation is built up for fermion propagator in presence of arbitrary external gauge field within ladder approximation. Different type external electromagnetic field dependent trial…
A global anomaly in a chiral gauge theory manifests itself in different ways in the continuum and on the lattice. In the continuum case, functional integration of the fermion determinant over the whole space of gauge fields yields zero. In…
The functional integral representation for fermionic observables on the lattice is studied. In particular, Grassmannian representations of the scalar $\hatJ^{(S)}$ and pseudoscalar $\hatJ^{(P)}$ currents and pseudoscalar correlator are…
We begin with a brief overview of lattice calculations using chiral effective field theory and some recent applications. We then describe several methods for computing scattering on the lattice. After that we focus on the main goal,…
Some time ago Kaplan proposed a new model for the description of chiral fermions on the lattice by adding an extra dimension for the fermions. A variant of this proposal was introduced by Shamir and can be used to describe vector-like…
