Dynamical fermions in lattice quantum chromodynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
The thesis will present results in Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) with dynamical lattice fermions. The topological susceptibilty in QCD is determined, the calculations are carried out with dynamical overlap fermions. The most important properties of the quark-gluon plasma phase of QCD are studied, for which dynamical staggered fermions are used.

Advanced Algorithms for the Simulation of Gauge Theories with Dynamical Fermionic Degrees of Freedom
The topic of this thesis is the numerical simulation of quantum chromodynamics including dynamical fermions. Two major problems of most simulation algorithms that deal with dynamical fermions are (i) their restriction to only two mass-degenerate quarks, and (ii) their limitation to relatively heavy masses. Realistic simulations of quantum chromodynamics, however, require the inclusion of three ...
متن کاملHamiltonian lattice quantum chromodynamics at finite density with Wilson fermions
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at sufficiently high density is expected to undergo a chiral phase transition. In Lagrangian SU(3) lattice gauge theory, the standard approach breaks down at large chemical potential μ, due to the complex action problem. (QCD at large μ is of particular importance for neutron star or quark star physics). The Hamiltonian formulation of lattice QCD doesn’t encounter s...
متن کاملChiral properties of dynamical Wilson fermions
Quantum Chromodynamics with two light quark flavors is considered in the lattice regularization with improved Wilson fermions. In this formulation chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by cutoff effects linear in the lattice spacing a. As a consequence the isovector axial currents require improvement (in the Symanzik sense) as well as a finite renormalization if they are to satisfy the continuum...
متن کاملChiral perturbation theory for twisted mass QCD
Quantum Chromodynamics on a lattice with Wilson fermions and a chirally twisted mass term for two degenerate quark flavours is considered in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. The pion masses and decay constants are calculated in next-to-leading order including terms linear in the lattice spacing a. We treat both unquenched and partially quenched QCD. We also discuss the phase structu...
متن کاملExperiences with dynamical chirally improved fermions
We simulate Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in four Euclidean dimensions with two (degenerate mass) flavors of dynamical quarks. The Dirac operator we use is the so-called chirally improved Dirac operator. We discuss the algorithm used for the simulation as well as the checks and some results on lattices up to size 8 for fermion mass parameters down to 0.1. This is the first attempt to introduce d...
