Aspects of chiral symmetry and the lattice

M Creutz - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2001 - APS
This article is a pedagogical exploration of the nonperturbative issues entwining lattice
gauge theory, anomalies, and chiral symmetry. After briefly reviewing the importance of …

Axial symmetries in lattice QCD with Kaplan fermions

V Furman, Y Shamir - Nuclear Physics B, 1995 - Elsevier
A lattice definition of QCD based on chiral defect fermions is discussed in detail. This
formulation involves (infinitely) many heavy regulator fields, realized through the introduction …

A Construction of lattice chiral gauge theories

R Narayanan, H Neuberger - Nuclear Physics B, 1995 - Elsevier
Path integration over Euclidean chiral fermions is replaced by the quantum mechanics of an
auxiliary system of non-interacting fermions. Our construction avoids the no-go theorem and …

An introduction to chiral symmetry on the lattice

S Chandrasekharan, UJ Wiese - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2004 - Elsevier
The SU (Nf) L⊗ SU (Nf) R chiral symmetry of QCD is of central importance for the
nonperturbative low-energy dynamics of light quarks and gluons. Lattice field theory …

QCD with domain wall quarks

T Blum, A Soni - Physical Review D, 1997 - APS
We present lattice calculations in QCD using Shamir's variant of Kaplan fermions which
retain the continuum SU (N) L× SU (N) R chiral symmetry on the lattice in the limit of an …

Interacting topological insulator and emergent grand unified theory

YZ You, C Xu - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
Motivated by the Pati-Salam grand unified theory [JC Pati and A. Salam, Phys. Rev. D 10,
275 (1974) 0556-2821 10.1103/PhysRevD. 10.275], we study (4+ 1) d topological insulators …

Surface states and chiral symmetry on the lattice

M Creutz, I Horvath - Physical Review D, 1994 - APS
In a Hamiltonian formalism we study chiral symmetry for lattice fermions formulated in terms
of Shockley surface states bound to a wall in an extra spatial dimension. For hadronic …

Chiral lattice gauge theories via mirror–fermion decoupling: A mission (im) possible?

E Poppitz, Y Shang - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2010 - World Scientific
This is a review of the status and outstanding issues in attempts to construct chiral lattice
gauge theories by decoupling the mirror fermions from a vectorlike theory. In the first half, we …

Lattice formulation of the standard model

M Creutz, M Tytgat, C Rebbi, SS Xue - Physics Letters B, 1997 - Elsevier
Combining the Kaplan surface mode approach for chiral fermions with added terms
motivated by Eichten and Preskill suggests the possibility for a lattice regularization of the …

Domain wall fermions and chiral gauge theories

K Jansen - Physics Reports, 1996 - Elsevier
We review the status of the domain wall fermion approach to construct chiral gauge theories
on the lattice. In this model an extra, fifth dimension is added and our 4-dimensional world …
