چکیده
An expression for the lattice eeective action induced by chiral fermions in any even dimensions in terms of an overlap of two states is shown to have promising properties in two dimensions: The correct abelian anomaly is reproduced and instantons are suppressed.

Chiral symmetry and lattice QCD
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 کاملProbing the chiral phase transition of N f = 2 clover fermions with valence overlap fermions
FOR THE DIK-COLLABORATION Overlap fermions are a powerful tool for investigating the chiral and topological structure of the vacuum and the thermal states of QCD. We study various chiral and topological aspects of the finite temperature phase transition of N f = 2 flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions, using valence overlap fermions as a probe. Particular emphasis is placed upon the analysi...
متن کاملChiral Fermions on the Lattice
We discuss topological obstructions to putting chiral fermions on an even dimensional lattice. The setting includes Ginsparg-Wilson fermions, but is more general. We prove a theorem which relates the total chirality to the difference of generalised winding numbers of chiral projection operators. For an odd number of Weyl fermions this implies that particles and anti-particles live in topologica...
متن کاملFurther discussions on a possible lattice chiral gauge theory
In a possible SUL(2) lattice chiral gauge theory with a large multifermion coupling, we try to further clarify the threshold phenomenon: the possibility that the right-handed three-fermion state turns into the virtual states of its constituents (free chiral fermions) in the low-energy limit. Provided this phenomenon occurs, we discuss the chiral gauge coupling, Ward identities and the gauge ano...
متن کاملDetermining gA using non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson fermions
On the lattice, for Wilson fermions, the chiral Ward Identity is only approximately true, due to discretisation effects. We have a finite renormalisation constant ZA(g) to determine by demanding that a Ward Identity is obeyed to O(a) (with n = 2 for O(a) improved fermions). The ALPHA collaboration [1] has found ZA for quenched fermions using the Schrödinger functional and PCAC; here, alternativ...
متن کاملRealizing chiral fermions in the type IIB matrix model at finite N
We discuss how chiral fermions can appear in the type IIB matrix model, which is considered to be a nonperturbative formulation of superstring theory. In particular, we are concerned with a constructive definition of the theory, in which we start with a finiteN configuration and take the large-N limit later on. We point out that there exists a certain necessary condition which the structure of ...
