Lattice theories of chiral fermions.
We present a Hamiltonian formulation for gauged non-anomalous chiral theories on a spatial lattice. The formulation has the desirable properties that it provides exact chiral symmetry in the mass + 0 limit, with a correct fermion spectrum and correct weak coupling perturbation theory for QED. It can be generalized to non-Abelian theories. The disadvantage of the formalism is that it is complica...

The Overlap-Dirac operator provides a lattice regularization of massless vector gauge theories with an exact chiral symmetry. Practical implementations of this operator and recent results in quenched QCD using this Overlap-Dirac operator are reviewed.
متن کاملChiral Fermions on the Lattice
In the last century the non-perturbative regularization of chiral fermions was a longstanding problem. We review how this problem was finally overcome by the formulation of a modified but exact form of chiral symmetry on the lattice. This also provides a sound definition of the topological charge of lattice gauge configurations. We illustrate a variety of applications to QCD in the p-, the εand...
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 کاملChiral symmetry and lattice fermions
Lattice gauge theory and chiral perturbation theory are among the primary tools for understanding non-perturbative aspects of QCD. I review several subtle and sometimes controversial issues that arise when combining these techniques. Among these are one failure of partially quenched chiral perturbation theory when the valence quarks become lighter than the average sea quark mass and a potential...
