Comment on Geometric Interpretation of Ito Calculus on the Lattice

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

A covariant nature of the Langevin equation in Ito calculus is clarified in applying stochastic quantization method to U(N) and SU(N) lattice gauge theories. The stochastic process is expressed in a manifestly general coordinate covariant form as a collective field theory on the group manifold. A geometric interpretation is given for the Langevin equation and the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation in the sense of Ito.
