Chiral properties of domain wall fermions with improved gauge actions
arXiv:hep-lat/0110074
Abstract
We study the chiral properties of quenched domain wall fermions with several gauge actions. We demonstrate that the nearly translationally invariant modes in the fifth dimension that dominate the residual mass for Wilson gauge action can be substantially suppressed using improved gauge actions. In particular, we study the Symanzik action, the Iwasaki action, the DBW2 action and compare them to the Wilson action.
