Phase structure of twisted Eguchi-Kawai model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the phase structure of the four-dimensional twisted Eguchi-Kawai model using numerical simulations. This model is an effective tool for studying SU(N) gauge theory in the large-N limit and provides a nonperturbative formulation of the gauge theory on noncommutative spaces. Recently it was found that its ZN symmetry, which is crucial for the validity of this model, can break spontaneously in the intermediate coupling region. We investigate in detail the symmetry breaking point from the weak coupling side. Our simulation results show that the continuum limit of this model cannot be taken.

Twisted Eguchi-Kawai Reduced Chiral Models
We study the twisted Eguchi-Kawai (TEK) reduction procedure for large N unitary matrix lattice models. In particular, we consider the case of twodimensional principal chiral models, and use numerical Monte Carlo (MC) simulations to check the conjectured equivalence of TEK reduced model and standard lattice model in the large-N limit. The MC results are compared with the large-N limit of lattice...
متن کاملNoncommutative Principal Chiral Models
Twisted Eguchi-Kawai reduced chiral models are shown to be formally equivalent to a U(1) noncommutative parent theory. To make contact with the continuum noncommutative theory, a double scaling large N limit for the reduced model is required. We show a possible limiting procedure, which we propose to investigate numerically. We also include some preliminary numerical results.
متن کاملA solvable twisted one-plaquette model
We solve a hot twisted Eguchi-Kawai model with only timelike plaquettes in the deconfined phase, by computing the quadratic quantum fluctuations around the classical vacuum. The solution of the model has some novel features: the eigenvalues of the time-like link variable are separated in L bunches, if L is the number of links of the original lattice in the time direction, and each bunch obeys a...
متن کاملNon-commutative Principal Chiral Model
Twisted Eguchi-Kawai reduced chiral models are shown to be formally equivalent a U(1) non-commutative parent theory. The non-commutative theory describes the vacuum dynamics of the non-commutative charged tachyonic field of a brane system. To make contact with the continuum non-commutative theory, a double scaling large N limit for the reduced model is required. We show a possible limiting proc...
متن کاملA survey of large N continuum phase transitions
The main focus of this talk is the physics of large N QCD on a continuum torus. A cascade of phase transitions associated with the breaking of U(1) symmetries will be discussed. The continuum Wilson loop as a function of its area will be discussed along with its universality properties and the associated double scaling limit. Some recent progress in twisted Eguchi-Kawai is presented. Gauge fiel...
