Fixed Point Action and Topology in the CP^3 Model

Abstract

We define a fixed point action in two-dimensional lattice CPN1{\rm CP}^{N-1} models. The fixed point action is a classical perfect lattice action, which is expected to show strongly reduced cutoff effects in numerical simulations. Furthermore, the action has scale-invariant instanton solutions, which enables us to define a correct topological charge without topological defects. Using a parametrization of the fixed point action for the CP3{\rm CP}^{3} model in a Monte Carlo simulation, we study the topological susceptibility.
