A Possible Aoki Phase for Staggered Fermions
Abstract The phase diagram for staggered fermions is discussed in the context of the staggered chiral Lagrangian, extending previous work on the subject. When the discretization errors are significant, there may be an Aoki-like phase for staggered fermions, where the remnant SO(4) taste symmetry is broken down to SO(3). We solve explicitly for the mass spectrum in the 3-flavor degenerate mass c...
متن کاملThe Aoki phase for N f = 2 Wilson fermions revisited ∗
In studies of chiral symmetry breaking it is desirable to start from an (almost) chirally invariant formulation of lattice fermions. At present this is best realized by using fermions satisfying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation, e.g. using the overlap operator, or by working with the domain wall framework [1]. In such approaches Wilson fermions are still important as an input. For the Wilson-Dirac ...
متن کاملstaggered fermions ∗
We address the locality problem arising in simulations, which take the square root of the staggered fermion determinant as a Boltzmann weight to reduce the number of dynamical quark tastes from four to two. We study analytically and numerically the square root of the staggered fermion operator as a candidate to define a two taste theory from first principles. Although it has the correct weight,...
متن کاملStaggered Domain Wall Fermions
Staggered Domain Wall Fermions (SDWF) combine the attractive chiral properties of staggered fermions with those of domain wall fermions. SDWF describe four flavors with exact U(1)×U(1) flavor chiral symmetry. An extra lattice dimension is introduced and the full SU(4)×SU(4) flavor chiral symmetry is recovered as its size is increased. Here, the free theory of SDWF is described and a preliminary...
متن کاملLocality with staggered fermions
We address the locality problem arising in simulations, which take the square root of the staggered fermion determinant as a Boltzmann weight to reduce the number of dynamical quark tastes. A definition of such a theory necessitates an underlying local fermion operator with the same determinant and the corresponding Green’s functions to establish causality and unitarity. We illustrate this poin...
