We only require generalized chiral symmetry and $gamma_5$-hermiticity, which leads to a large class of Dirac operators describing massless fermions on the lattice, and use this framework to give an overview of developments in this field. Spectral representations turn out to be a powerful tool for obtaining detailed properties of the operators and a general construction of them. A basic unitary operator is seen to play a central r^ole in this context. We discuss a number of special cases of the operators and elaborate on various aspects of index relations. We also show that our weaker conditions lead still properly to Weyl fermions and to chiral gauge theories.

Instead of the Ginsparg-Wilson (GW) relation we only require generalized chiral symmetry and show that this results in a larger class of Dirac operators describing massless fermions, which in addition to GW fermions and to the ones proposed by Fujikawa includes many more general ones. The index turns out to depend solely on a basic unitary operator. We use spectral representations to analyze the new class and to obtain detailed properties. We also show that our weaker conditions still lead properly to Weyl fermions and to chiral gauge theories.
We propose a novel approach to the Graphene system using a local field theory of 4 dimensional QED model coupled to 2+1 dimensional Dirac fermions, whose velocity is much smaller than the speed of light. Performing hybrid Monte Carlo simulations of this model on the lattice, we compute the chiral condensate and its susceptibility with different coupling constant, velocity parameter and flavor number. We find that the chiral symmetry is dynamically broken in the small velocity regime and obtain a qualitatively consistent behavior with the prediction from Schwinger-Dyson equations.
We still extend the large class of Dirac operators decribing massless fermions on the lattice found recently, only requiring that such operators decompose into Weyl operators. After deriving general relations and constructions of operators, we study the basis representations of the chiral projections. We then investigate correlation functions of Weyl fermions for any value of the index, stressing the related conditions for basis transformations and their consequences, and getting the precise behaviors under gauge transformations and CP transformations. Various further developments include considerations of the explicit form of the effective action and of a representation of the general correlation functions in terms of alternating multilinear forms. For comparison we also consider gauge-field variations and their respective applications. Finally we compare with continuum perturbation theory.
We define a family of Schroedinger Functional renormalization schemes for the four-quark multiplicatively renormalizable operators of the $Delta F = 1$ and $Delta F = 2$ effective weak Hamiltonians. Using the lattice regularization with quenched Wilson quarks, we compute non-perturbatively the renormalization group running of these operators in the continuum limit in a large range of renormalization scales. Continuum limit extrapolations are well controlled thanks to the implementation of two fermionic actions (Wilson and Clover). The ratio of the renormalization group invariant operator to its renormalized counterpart at a low energy scale, as well as the renormalization constant at this scale, is obtained for all schemes.
We study the effect of dynamical gauge field on the Kaplans chiral fermion on a boundary in the strong gauge coupling limit in the extra dimension. To all orders of the hopping parameter expansion, we prove exact parity invariance of the fermion propagator on the boundary. This means that the chiral property of the boundary fermion, which seems to survive even in the presence of the gauge field from a perturbative point of view, is completely destroyed by the dynamics of the gauge field.
