Fermion production despite fermion number conservation
Wolfgang Bock, James E. Hetrick, Jan Smit
Lattice proposals for a nonperturbative formulation of the Standard Model easily lead to a global U(1) symmetry corresponding to exactly conserved fermion number. The absence of an…

Chiral gauge theories on the lattice and restoration of gauge symmetry
Wolfgang Bock, Jan Smit, Jeroen C. Vink
We investigate a proposal for the construction of models with chiral fermions on the lattice using staggered fermions. In this approach the gauge invariance is broken by the coupli…

Staggered fermion approach to chiral gauge theories on the lattice
W. Bock, J. Smit, J. C. Vink
The staggered fermion approach to build models with chiral fermions is briefly reviewed. The method is tested in a U(1) model with axial vector coupling in two and four dimensions.
