1 A construction of the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model on the lattice with exact gauge invariance Y. Kikukawa Institute of Physics, University of Tokyo based on : D. Kadoh and Y.K., JHEP 0805:095 (2008), 0802:063 (2008) D.~Kadoh, Y.~Nakayama and Y.K., JHEP 0412, 006 (2004) Y. Nakayama and Y.K., Nucl. Phys. B597, 519 (2001)

2 the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model (^^; (SU(2)x U(1) sector of the standard model without SU(3) color int.) a chiral gauge theory with SU(2)L x U(1)Y gauge symmetry breaking via Higgs mechanism baryon number violation due to chiral anomaly but... etc. Weakly coupled theory, Still, non-perturbative dynamics may be relevant no gauge-invariant regularization is known (cf. dimensional reg.) non-perturbative definition is missing

3 previous attempts to put on the lattice... Eichten-Preskill approach (symmetry/symmetry breaking) Wilson-Yukawa model (Smit, Swift, Aoki) Rome (gauge-fixing) approach (Testa et al, Golterman-Shamir) domain-wall + Eichten-Preskill hybrid (Creutz) Mirror GW fermion approach (Poppitz) etc. in this talk... a gauge-invariant construction of GWS model on the lattice use of overlap Dirac operator (the Ginsparg-Wilson relation) cf. U(1) chiral gauge theory with exact gauge invariance Luscher (99) the first invariant / non-perturbative regularization of the model all SU(2) togological sectors with vanishing U(1) magnetic fluxes

4 plan of this talk 1. chiral lattice gauge theories based on overlap D / the G-W rel. 2. gauge anomalies in the lattice SU(2)L x U(1)Y chiral gauge theory 3. topology of the space of SU(2)xU(1) lattice gauge fields 4. our approach & results explicit construction of the smooth measure term proof of the global integrability conditions [reconstruction theorem] 5. discussion an extention to the standard model (the inclusion of SU(3) ) possible applications

Luscher(99) locality? gauge invariance? integrability? [ admissibility cond. cf. Hernandez, Jansen, Luscher(98) ] [ gauge anomaly cancellations ] [ topology of the space of gauge fields non-trivial due to Admissibility cond. ] * different situation from Dirac fermions in Vector-like theories like QCD

7 applying this formulation to quarks and leptons... our results on the lattice GWS model : 1. explicit construction of the smooth measure term, which fulfills requirements of locality, gauge invariance & local integrability L η = i i (v i,δ η v i )= x η µ (x)j µ (x) η µ (x) =η (2) µ (x) η (1) µ (x) 2. proof of the reconstruction theorem (global integrability conditions) key issues...

13 Reconstruction theorem In the topological sectors with vanishing U(1) magnetic flux, if there exist local current jµ(x) a (a =1, 2, 3),j µ (x) which satisfy the following four properties, it is then possible to reconstruct the fermion measure ( the basis {v j (x)} ) which depends smoothly on the gauge fields and fulfills the fundamental requirements such as locality, gauge-invariance, integrability and lattice symmetries:

14 the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model on the lattice finite volume case covers all SU(2) topological sectors with vanishing U(1) magnetic fluxes global integrability is proved rigorously some non-perturbative applications? ex. a computation of the effect of quarks & leptons to the sphaleron rate at finite temp. (at one-loop) infinite volume case a local counter term constructed non-perturbatively the first gauge-invariant regularization of the EW theory (cf. dimensional reg. ) may be used in perturbation theory ex. computations of higher order EW contr. to muon g-2
