Odd-flavor Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm for Lattice QCD
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss hybrid Monte Carlo algorithms for odd-flavor lattice QCD simulations. The algorithms include a polynomial approximation which enables us to simulate odd-flavor QCD in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. In order to make the algorithms exact, the correction factor to the polynomial approximation is also included in an economical, stochastic way. We test the algorithms for nf = 1, 1+1 and 2+1 flavors and compare results with other algorithms.

Odd-flavor Simulations by the Hybrid Monte Carlo a
The standard hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm is known to simulate even flavors QCD only. Simulations of odd flavors QCD, however, can be also performed in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm where the inverse of the fermion matrix is approximated by a polynomial. In this exploratory study we perform three flavors QCD simulations. We make a comparison of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorit...
متن کاملSchwarz-preconditioned HMC algorithm for two-flavor lattice QCD
The combination of a non-overlapping Schwarz preconditioner and the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm is shown to yield an efficient simulation algorithm for two-flavour lattice QCD with Wilson quarks. Extensive tests are performed, on lattices of size up to 32×24, with lattice spacings a ≃ 0.08 fm and at bare current-quark masses as low as 21MeV.

We present a polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (PHMC) algorithm as an exact simulation algorithm with dy-namical Kogut-Susskind fermions. The algorithm uses a Hermitian polynomial approximation for the fractional power of the KS fermion matrix. The systematic error from the polynomial approximation is removed by the Kennedy-Kuti noisy Metropolis test so that the algorithm becomes exact at a finite ...
متن کاملNon-Hermitian Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo
In this thesis algorithmic improvements and variants for two-flavor lattice QCD simulations with dynamical fermions are studied using the O(a) improved Dirac-Wilson operator in the Schrödinger functional setup and employing a hybrid Monte Carlo-type (HMC) update. Both, the Hermitian and the Non-Hermitian operator are considered. For the Hermitian Dirac-Wilson operator we investigate the advanta...
متن کاملAn Exact Algorithm for Any-flavor Lattice QCD with Kogut-Susskind Fermion
We propose an exact simulation algorithm for lattice QCD with dynamical KogutSusskind fermion in which the Nf -flavor fermion operator is defined as the Nf/4-th root of the Kogut-Susskind (KS) fermion operator. The algorithm is an extension of the Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (PHMC) algorithm to KS fermions. The fractional power of the KS fermion operator is approximated with a Hermitian Cheby...
