RU–95–79 A Lecture on Chiral Fermions.
نویسنده
چکیده
This is an informal and approximate transcription of a talk presented at the DESY workshop, September 27–29, 1995. The basic message is that real and long overdue progress is taking place on the problem of regulating non–perturbatively chiral gauge theories. Several approaches are reviewed with emphasis on the overlap and some of the questions raised about it. No claim for completeness or objectivity is made.

Algorithms for Dynamical Fermions
This is the write-up of three lectures on algorithms for dynamical fermions that were given at the ILFTN workshop ‘Perspectives in Lattice QCD’ in Nara during November 2005. The first lecture is on the fundamentals of Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods and introduces the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm and symplectic integrators; the second lecture covers topics in approximation theory and the...

The effective action induced by chiral fermions can be written, formally, as an overlap of two states. These states are the Fock ground states of Hamiltonians for fermions in even dimensional space with opposite sign mass terms coupled to identical static vector potentials. A perturbative analysis of the overlap in the continuum framework produces the correct anomaly for Abelian gauge fields in...

A recent application of an index relation of the form, dim ker M − dim ker M † = ν, to the generation of chiral fermions in a vector-like gauge theory is reviewed. In this scheme the chiral structure arises from a mass term with a non-trivial index.The essence of the generalized Pauli-Villars reg-ularization of chiral gauge theory,which is based on this mechanism,is also clarified.

A commercially available ruthenium(II) PNP-type pincer catalyst (Ru-Macho) promotes the formation of α-chiral tert-butanesulfinylamines from racemic secondary alcohols and Ellman's chiral tert-butanesulfinamide via a hydrogen borrowing strategy. The formation of α-chiral tert-butanesulfinylamines occurs in yields ranging from 31% to 89% with most examples giving >95:5 dr.

The chiral extension of Quantum Chromodynamics (XQCD) adds to the standard lattice action explicit pseu-doscalar meson fields for the chiral condensates. With this action, it is feasible to do simulations at the chiral limit with zero mass Goldstone modes. We review the arguments for why this is expected to be in the same universality class as the traditional action. We present preliminary resu...
