Description

We will look at the challenges faced in a field theoretic formulation of path-integral for chiral fermions in Euclidean signature. We point out a possible resolution to these challenges using the worldline formalism. To discuss the chiral nature of the theory, we consider a worldline action for Kahler-Dirac fermions on the lattice, and discuss the relationship to random walks and the 1D Ising model. (In collaboration with Latham Boyle.)
