چکیده

The spatial discretization of the single-cone Dirac Hamiltonian on surface a topological insulator or superconductor needs special "staggered" grid, to avoid appearance spurious second cone in Brillouin zone. We adapt Stacey from lattice gauge theory produce generalized eigenvalue problem, form ${\mathcal H}\psi=E {\mathcal P}\psi$, with Hermitian tight-binding operators H}$, P}$, locally conserved particle current, and preserved chiral symplectic symmetries. This permits study spectral statistics fermions each four symmetry classes A, AII, AIII, D.

A lattice fermion without doubling

A free fermion without doubler is formulated on 1+D dimensional discrete Minkowski space-time. The action is not hermitian but causes no harm. In 1+3 dimensional massless case the equation describes a single species of Dirac particle in the continuous space-time limit. In 1+1 dimensional massless case the equation is the same as the automaton equation by ’t Hooft and describes a chiral fermion....

The rooting issue for a lattice fermion formulation similar to staggered fermions but without taste mixing

To investigate the viability of the 4th root trick for the staggered fermion determinant in a simpler setting, we consider a two taste (flavor) lattice fermion formulation with no taste mixing but with exact taste-nonsinglet chiral symmetries analogous to the taste-nonsinglet U(1)A symmetry of staggered fermions. Creutz’s objections to the rooting trick apply just as much in this setting. To co...

Dirac-Kähler fermions and exact lattice supersymmetry

We discuss a new approach to putting supersymmetric theories on the lattice. The basic idea is to start from a twisted formulation of the underlying supersymmetric theory in which the fermions are represented as grassmann valued antisymmetric tensor fields. The original supersymmetry algebra is replaced by a twisted algebra which contains a scalar nilpotent supercharge Q. Furthermore the action...

Chiral Dirac fermions on the lattice using Geometric Discretisation

The theorem of Nielsen and Ninomiya [3] came with a topological proof of the fact that under reasonable assumptions, fermion doubling is unavoidable on the lattice. A key element of the proof was the periodicity of the Brillouin zone thus setting the approach in momentum space. In other arguments [4], [5] it was argued that doubling is already present when one starts one step back and consider ...

A solution to the fermion doubling problem for supersymmetric theories on the transverse lattice

Species doubling is a problem that infects most numerical methods that use a spatial lattice. An understanding of species doubling can be found in the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem which gives a set of conditions that require species doubling. The transverse lattice approach to solving field theories, which has at least one spatial lattice, fails one of the conditions of the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem...
