We develop a Hamiltonian formalism for simulating interacting chiral fermions on the lattice while preserving unitarity and locality and without breaking the chiral symmetry. The fermion doubling problem is circumvented by constructing a Fock space endowed with a semi-definite norm. When projecting our theory on the the single-particle sector, we recover the framework of Stacey fermions, and we demonstrate that the scaling limit of the free model recovers the chiral fermion field. Technically, we make use of a matrix product operator norm to mimick the boundary of a higher dimensional topological theory. As a proof of principle, we consider a single Weyl fermion on a periodic ring with Hubbard-type nearest-neighbor interactions and construct a variational generalized DMRG code to demonstrate that the ground state for large system sizes can be determined efficiently. As our tensor network approach does not exhibit any sign problem, we can add a chemical potential and study real-time evolution.

  1. Ginsparg-Wilson Hamiltonians with Improved Chiral Symmetry

    hep-lat 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A tunable family of Ginsparg-Wilson Hamiltonians is constructed in which the chiral charge becomes progressively more quantized as k increases, though locality degrades.

  2. Exact chiral symmetry with quantum signal processing

    hep-lat 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    QSP implements the overlap fermion Hamiltonian with Ginsparg-Wilson violation O(ε_e) at cost only a log(1/ε_e)/κ factor above Wilson-Dirac, trading qubits for gates versus domain-wall fermions.

  3. Finite-Element Matrix Product States for Continuum Models in One Dimension

    quant-ph 2026-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A variational tensor-network framework for continuum 1D models that encodes non-orthogonal finite-element basis overlaps as an MPO and solves a generalized DMRG eigenvalue problem.

  4. Perfect Particle Transmission through Duality Defects

    hep-th 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Wavepackets in quantum spin chains pass perfectly through duality defects and emerge as string-dressed excitations, because such defects are unitary conjugations of the uniform Hamiltonian.
