By generalizing the Fujikawa approach, we show in the path-integral formalism: (1) how the infinitesimal variation of the fermion measure can be integrated to obtain the full anomalous chiral action; (2) how the action derived in this way…

Actions for $D=2$, $N=2$ supergravity coupled to a scalar field are calculated, and it is shown that the most general power-counting renormalizable dilaton gravity action has an $N=2$ locally supersymmetric extension. The presence of chiral…

We formulate the renormalization procedure using the domain wall regularization that is based on the heat-kernel method. The quantum effects of both fermions and bosons (gauge fields) are taken into account. The background field method is…

In frames of dS/CFT correspondence suggested by Strominger we calculate holographic conformal anomaly for dual euclidean CFT. The holographic renormalization group method is used for this purpose. It is explicitly demonstrated that…

Four-dimensional chiral gauge theory can be formulated as the boundary theory on a five-dimensional manifold in a manner that may be realized on a finite lattice. There are interesting features of these theories which defy a purely…

We point out that a fermion determinant of a chiral gauge theory on a 2D torus has a phase ambiguity proportional to the Polyakov loops along the boundaries, which can be reproduced by the overlap formalism. We show that the requirement on…

I report on recent progress in the study of mass generation in non-abelian gauge theories, and concentrate on the origin of constituent masses in QCD. I argue that a consistent formalism has been developed to describe chiral symmetry…

The use of the dimensional regularization in the on-mass-shell renormalization scheme sometimes fails to locally cancel the ultraviolet divergence for a class of diagrams in the two-loop order. The mechanism is discussed based on an example…

Chiral U(1) anomaly is derived with mathematical rigor for a Euclidean fermion coupled to a smooth external U(1) gauge field on an even dimensional torus as a continuum limit of lattice regularized fermion field theory with the Wilson term…

We investigate the property of the effective action with the chiral overlap operator, which was derived by Grabowska and Kaplan. They proposed a lattice formulation of four-dimensional chiral gauge theory, which is derived from their…

Violation of the $U(1)$ axial symmetry in QCD is stricter than the chiral $SU(2)$ breaking, simply because of the presence of the quantum axial anomaly. If the QCD gauge coupling is sent to zero, the strength of the $U(1)$ axial breaking…

The anomaly implies an obstruction to a fully chiral covariant calculation of the effective action in the abnormal parity sector of chiral theories. The standard approach then is to reconstruct the anomalous effective action from its…

Smooth manifolds of G_2 holonomy, used to compactify M-theory to four dimensions, give only abelian gauge groups without charged matter multiplets. But singular G_2-manifolds can give abelian or nonabelian gauge groups with chiral fermions.…

We study quantum dilaton coupled spinors in two and four dimensions. Making classical transformation of metric, dilaton coupled spinor theory is transformed to minimal spinor theory with another metric and in case of 4d spinor also in the…

We evaluate for arbitrary even dimensions the classical continuum limit of the lattice axial anomaly defined by the overlap-Dirac operator. Our calculational scheme is simple and systematic. In particular, a powerful topological argument is…

We consider N Dirac fermions on a 4-dimensional Euclidean space with a quadratic interaction given by arbitrary external Clifford-valued fields. The divergence of the axial current satisfies on the classical level a relation that is…

We demonstrate that the technique of abelian bosonization through duality transformations can be extended to gauging anomalous symmetries. The example of a Dirac fermion theory is first illustrated. This idea is then also applied to…

There is evidence for existence of massless Dirac quasi-particles in graphene, which satisfy Dirac equation in (1+2) dimensions near the so called Dirac points which lie at the corners at the graphene's brilluoin zone. It is shown that…

A popular physical picture of the mechanism behind the four-dimensional chiral anomaly is provided by the massless Dirac equation in the presence of constant electric and magnetic background fields. The magnetic field creates highly…

Chiral gauge theories in two dimensions with (0,2) supersymmetry are central in the study of string compactifications. Remarkably little is known about generic (0,2) theories. We consider theories with branches on which multiplets with a…
