Composite operators from the operator product expansion: what can go wrong?

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

The operator product expansion is used to compute the matrix elements of composite renormalized operators on the lattice. We study the product of two fundamental fields in the two-dimensional sigma-model and discuss the possible sources of systematic errors. The key problem turns out to be the violation of asymptotic scaling.
