Lattice Gauge Actions for Fixed Topology

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

We test a set of lattice gauge actions for QCD that suppress small plaquette values and in this way also suppress transitions between topological sectors. This is well suited for simulations in the epsilon-regime and it is expected to help in numerical simulations with dynamical quarks.
