Abstract

The implementation of chiral symmetry on the lattice discussed in Chap. 7 was an unsolved puzzle for many years. The problem has continuously inspired the lattice community and led to a variety of formulations for fermions on the lattice. So far we have focused on two kinds of fermions in our presentation, Wilson-type and overlap fermions. Wilson fermions provide a simple robust and easy-to-use discretization, while overlap fermions implement chiral symmetry in the most transparent way.
