Using a generalized proper-time method, we obtain expressions for the fermion density and the QED effective Lagrangian for an external magnetic field at finite chemical potential. The effective Lagrangian and the density are here written in…
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 revisit the calculation of the fermion self-energy in QED in the presence of a magnetic field. We show that, after carrying out the renormalization procedure and identifying the most general perturbative tensor structure for the modified…
Domain wall fermions are a new lattice fermion formulation which preserves the full chiral symmetry of the continuum at finite lattice spacing, up to terms exponentially small in an extra parameter. We discuss the main features of the…
We are studying finite fermion density states in Maxwell QED$_{2+1}$ with external magnetic field. It is shown that at any fermion density the energy of some magnetized states may be less than that of the state with the same density, but no…
The nucleon electromagnetic form factors continue to be of major interest for experimentalists and phenomenologists alike. They provide important insights into the structure of nuclear matter. For a range of interesting momenta they can be…
The domain wall approach to lattice fermions employs an additional dimension, in which gauge fields are merely replicated, to separate the chiral components of a Dirac fermion. It is known that in the limit of infinite separation in this…
Three current models of QCD in (1+1) dimensions are examined and extended in light-front coordinates. A pion of high momentum is found to have an infinite extent along its direction of motion.
A serious difficulty in conventional lattice field theory calculations is the coupling between the chiral and continuum limits. With both staggered and Wilson fermions, the chiral limit cannot be realized without first taking the limit of…
The impact of a strong electromagnetic background field on otherwise perturbative QED processes is studied in the momentum-space formulation. The univariate background field is assumed to have finite support in time, thus being suitable to…
We investigate, analytically and numerically, the fermion determinant of a new action on a (1+1)-dimensional Euclidean lattice. In this formulation the discrete chiral symmetry is preserved and the number of fermion components is a half of…
We study the Euclidean effective action and the full fermion propagator for a Dirac field in the presence of a scalar field with a domain wall defect, in 2+1 dimensions. We include quantum effects due to both fermion and scalar field…
We investigate the effects of thermal fluctuations on the spontaneous magnetic condensate in three dimensional QED coupled with P-odd Dirac fermions. Our results show that the phenomenon of the spontaneous generation of the constant…
A mechanism for determining fermion masses in four spacetime dimensions is presented, which uses a scalar-field domain wall extending in a fifth spacelike dimension and a special choice of Yukawa coupling constants. A bounded and discrete…
The realization of global symmetries can depend on the geometry of the underlying space. In particular, compactification can lead to spontaneous breaking of such symmetries. Four-dimensional QCD with fundamental representation fermions…
For the Lorentz gauge the influence of various Gribov gauge copies on the fermion propagator is investigated in quenched compact lattice QED. Within the Coulomb phase besides double Dirac sheets the zero-momentum modes of the gauge fields…
The influence of a magnetic field on the mass generation in 2+1 dimensional QED is considered.It is shown that the magnetic field is a catalyst of the generation of a fermion dynamical mass. The mass arises in the system with arbitrary…
Two dimensional QCD is bosonized to be an integrably deformed Wess-Zumino-Witten model under proper limit. Fermions are identified having indices of the Grassmann manifold. Conditions for integrability are analyzed and their physical…
We investigate some properties of a system of Dirac fermions in 2+1 dimensions, with a space dependent mass having domain wall like defects.These defects are defined by the loci of the points where the mass changes sign. In general, they…
We examine the chiral limit of domain wall fermions in quenched QCD. One expects that in a quenched simulation, exact fermion zero modes will give a divergent, 1/m behavior in the chiral condensate for sufficiently small valence quark…
