Lattice study of nucleon properties with domain wall fermions

Domain wall fermions (DWF) are a new fermion discretization scheme with greatly improved chiral symmetry. Our final goal is to study the nucleon spin structure through lattice simulation using DWF. In this paper, we present our current progress on two topics toward this goal: 1) the mass spectrum of the nucleon excited states and 2) the iso-vector vector and axial charges, $g_{V}$ and $g_{A}$, of the nucleon.
