How well do domain wall fermions realize chiral symmetry?

چکیده

In the domain wall fermion formulation, chiral symmetry breaking in full QCD is expected to fall exponentially with the length of the extra dimension. We measure the chiral symmetry breaking due to a finite extra dimension in two ways, which can be affected differently by finite volume and explicit fermion mass. For quenched QCD the two methods generally agree, except for the largest extent of the extra dimension, which makes the limit uncertain. We have less data for full QCD, but see exponential suppression for the method where we have data.

Optimal lattice domain-wall fermions.

I show that the conventional formulations of lattice domain-wall fermion with any finite N(s) (in the fifth dimension) do not preserve the chiral symmetry optimally and propose a new action which preserves the chiral symmetry optimally for any finite N(s).

Staggered Domain Wall Fermions

Staggered Domain Wall Fermions (SDWF) combine the attractive chiral properties of staggered fermions with those of domain wall fermions. SDWF describe four flavors with exact U(1)×U(1) flavor chiral symmetry. An extra lattice dimension is introduced and the full SU(4)×SU(4) flavor chiral symmetry is recovered as its size is increased. Here, the free theory of SDWF is described and a preliminary...

Decays with Domain Wall Fermions: Towards Physical Results

We are using domain wall fermions to study K → ππ matrix elements by measuring K → π and K → 0 matrix elements on the lattice and employing chiral perturbation theory to relate these to the desired physical result. The residual chiral symmetry breaking of domain wall fermions with a finite extent in the fifth dimension impacts these measurements. Using the Ward-Takahashi identities, we investig...

Domain Wall Fermions with Exact Chiral Symmetry

We show how the standard domain wall action can be simply modified to allow arbitrarily exact chiral symmetry at finite fifth dimensional extent. We note that the method can be used for both quenched and dynamical calculations. We test the method using smooth and thermalized gauge field configurations. We also make comparisons of the performance (cost) of the domain wall operator for spectrosco...
