Chiral gauge theories revisited
A characteristic feature of the electroweak interactions is that the leftand righthanded components of the fermion fields do not couple to the gauge fields in the same way. The term chiral gauge theory is reserved for field theories of this type, while all other gauge theories (such as QCD) are referred to as vector-like, since the gauge fields only couple to vector currents in this case. At fi...
متن کاملLattice Chiral Gauge Theories
I review the substantial progress which has been made recently with the non-perturbative construction of chiral gauge theories on the lattice. In particular, I discuss three different approaches: a gauge invariant method using fermions which satisfy the Ginsparg–Wilson relation, and two gauge non-invariant methods, one using different cutoffs for the fermions and the gauge fields, and one using...
متن کاملA Note on “Anomalous” Chiral Gauge Theories
We show that, the lattice regularization of chiral gauge theories proposed by Kaplan, when applied to a (2+1)-dimensional domain wall, produces a (1+1)-dimensional theory at low energy even if gauge anomaly produced by chiral fermions does not cancel. But the corresponding statement is not true in higher dimensions. Chiral gauge theories deserve deeper study because nature exhibits left-right a...

Some general considerations on the problem of non-perturbative definition of Chiral Gauge Theories are presented.
متن کاملLattice Chiral Gauge Theories through Gauge Fixing
After an introduction in which we review the fundamental difficulty in constructing lattice chiral gauge theories, we discuss the analytic and numerical evidence that abelian lattice chiral gauge theories can be non-perturbatively constructed through the gauge-fixing approach. While a complete non-abelian extension is still under construction, we also show how fermion-number violating processes...
