An algorithm for Landau gauge fixing in Lattice QCD
نویسندگان
چکیده
An algorithm for gauge fixing to the minimal Landau gauge in lattice QCD is described. The method, a combination of an evolutionary algorithm with a steepest descent method, is able to solve the problem of the nonperturbative gauge fixing. The performance of the combined algorithm is investigated on 8, β = 5.7, and 16, β = 6.0, lattice SU(3) gauge configurations.

A global optimization method for Landau gauge fixing in Lattice QCD
An algorithm for gauge fixing to the Landau gauge in the fundamental modular region in lattice QCD is described. The method, a combination of an evolutionary algorithm with a steepest descent method, is able to solve the problem of the nonperturbative gauge fixing. The performance of the combined algorithm is investigated on 8, β = 5.7, and 16, β = 6.0, lattice SU(3) gauge configurations. Latti...

We compare two Landau gauge fixing methods, aiming to find the global maximum of the gauge fixing functional. Moreover, a systematic effect of Gribov copies in the gluon and ghost propaga-tors computed in Landau gauge is presented and discussed.
متن کاملInfrared Features of the Lattice Landau Gauge QCD
The infrared properties of lattice Landau gauge QCD of SU(3) are studied by measuring gluon propagator, ghost propagator, QCD running coupling and Kugo-Ojima parameter of β = 6.0, 16, 24, 32 and β = 6.4, 32, 48 lattices. We study Gribov copy problem by parallel tempering (PT) gauge fixing of β = 2.2, 16 SU(2) configurations. Rather unexpected features of the unique gauge(fundamental modular gau...
متن کاملLandau gauge fixing on GPUs
We explore the performance of CUDA in performing Landau gauge fixing in Lattice QCD, using the steepest descent method with Fourier acceleration. The code performance was tested in a Tesla C2070, Fermi architecture. We also present a study of the string tension at finite temperature in the confined phase. The string tension is extracted from the color averaged free energy and from the color sin...
متن کاملImproved Landau Gauge Fixing and Discretisation Errors ∗
Gauge fixing in lattice gauge theory simulations is crucial for many calculations e.g. the study of gauge dependent quantities such as the gluon propagator [1]. However, the standard lattice Landau gauge condition [2] is the same as the continuum condition, ∑ μ ∂μAμ = 0, only to leading order in the lattice spacing, a. The focus of this talk is to use mean-fieldimproved perturbation theory [3] ...
