- Abstract: We discuss the chiral fermion in the Hamiltonian formalism of lattice gauge
theory. Although the naive chiral charge operator does not commute with the
Hamiltonian, the commutable one can be defined for the overlap fermion. The
eigenvalues of the energy and the chiral charge can be defined simultaneously.
We study how the eigenvalue spectrum reflects chiral properties of systems,
such as a chiral chemical potential and the axial anomaly. We also show that
the Wilson fermion is a chiral fermion in one dimension.
