A no-go theorem for the Majorana fermion on a lattice
Abstract
A variant of the Nielsen--Ninomiya no-go theorem is formulated. This theorem states that, under several assumptions, it is impossible to write down a doubler-free Euclidean lattice action of a single Majorana fermion in 8k and 8k+1 dimensions.
