Exact Chiral Fermions and Finite Density on Lattice

چکیده
Any μ2-divergence is shown analytically to be absent for a class of actions for Overlap and Domain Wall Fermions with nonzero chemical potential. All such actions are, however, shown to violate the chiral invariance. While the parameter M of these actions can be shown to be irrelevant in the continuum limit, as expected, it is shown numerically that the continuum limit can be reached with relatively coarser lattices for 1.5 ≤ M ≤1.6.

Axial U(1) symmetry in the chiral symmetric phase of 2-flavor QCD at finite temperature
We discuss the fate of the axial U(1) symmetry in 2-flavor QCD at finite temperature, where the non-singlet chiral symmetry is restored. We first summarize the previous theoretical investigation on the relation between the eigenvalue density of the Dirac operator and the axial U(1) symmetry. We show that the eigenvalue density near the origin behaves as λ γ with γ > 2 in the chirally symmetric ...
متن کاملAre Topological Charge Fluctuations in QCD Instanton Dominated?
We consider a recent proposal by Horváth et al. to address the question whether topological charge fluctuations in QCD are instanton dominated via the response of fermions using lattice fermions with exact chiral symmetry, the overlap fermions. Considering several volumes and lattice spacings we find strong evidence for chirality of a finite density of low-lying eigenvectors of the overlap-Dira...

Four lectures about chiral symmetry and dynamical fermions in QCD. 1) Chiral symmetry in continuum QCD with an eye toward lattice simulations. 2) Lattice fermions with exact chiral symmetry: staggered fermions, fermions in five dimensions, chiral fermions in four dimensions. 3) A typical lattice simulation from beginning to end: the simulation algorithm, designing observables to measure some de...
متن کاملFermion determinant and chiral anomaly on a finite lattice
The fermion determinant and the chiral anomaly of lattice Dirac operator D on a finite lattice are investigated. The condition for D to reproduce correct chiral anomaly at each site of a finite lattice for smooth background gauge fields is that D possesses exact zero modes satisfying the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. This is also the necessary condition forD to have correct fermion determinant (...
متن کاملChiral Anomaly and Index Theorem on a finite lattice
The condition for a lattice Dirac operator D to reproduce correct chiral anomaly at each site of a finite lattice for smooth background gauge fields is that D possesses exact zero modes satisfying the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. This is also the necessary condition for D to have correct fermion determinant ( ratio ) which plays the important role of incorporating dynamical fermions in the func...
