It has been suggested to project out a number of low-lying eigenvalues of thefour-dimensional Wilson--Dirac operator that generates the transfer matrix ofdomain-wall fermions in order to improve simulations with domain-wall fermions.We investigate how this projection method reduces the residual chiralsymmetry-breaking effects for a finite extent of the extra dimension. We usethe standard Wilson as well as the renormalization--group--improved gaugeaction. In both cases we find a substantially reduced residual mass when theprojection method is employed. In addition, the large fluctuations in thisquantity disappear.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figures, references updated, comments adde
