Anyonic order parameters for discrete gauge theories on the lattice
We present a new family of gauge invariant non-local order parameters ∆α for (non-abelian) discrete gauge theories on a Euclidean lattice, which are in one-to-one correspondence with the excitation spectrum that follows from the representation theory of the quantum double D(H) of the finite group H . These combine magnetic flux-sector labeled by a conjugacy class with an electric representation...
متن کاملMonopole Order Parameter in Su (2) Lattice Gauge Theory *
We present the results of the numerical calculation of the probability distribution of the value of the monopole creation operator in SU (2) lattice gluodynamics. We work in the maximal abelian projection. It occurs that at the low temperature, below the deconfinement phase transition the maximum of the distribution is shifted from zero, which means that the effective constraint potential is of...
متن کاملLattice Gauge Theory
Supercomputers have recently become a crucial tool for the quantum field the-orist. Applied to the formalism of lattice gauge theory, numerical simulations are providing fundamental quantitative information about the interactions of quarks, the fundamental constituents of those particles which experience nuclear interactions. Perhaps most strikingly, these simulations have provided convincing e...
متن کاملPositivity and topology in lattice gauge theory
With certain smoothness assumptions, continuum Yang-Mills field configurations in four dimensional spacetime can be classified by a topological winding number [1]. This realization has played a major role in our understanding of the importance of nonperturbative phenomena in the SU(3) gauge theory of the strong interactions [2]. This winding number is uniquely defined for smooth fields; however...
متن کاملLattice gauge theory: A retrospective
I am honored to have this opportunity to give the final talk at this wonderful meeting. I was originally asked to talk about “Lattice gauge theory: past, present, and future.” Well, I really don’t know much about the future, and if I did, I would be out trying to develop the ideas. As for the present, well you have for the last few days been hearing all about it, and there is too much for me to...
