Gapped Chiral Fermions

In principle, there is no obstacle to gapping fermions preserving any global symmetry that does not suffer a ’t Hooft anomaly. In practice, preserving a symmetry that is realized on fermions in a chiral manner necessitates some dynamics beyond simple quadratic mass terms. We show how this can be ach...
