Noncompact gauge fields on a lattice: SU(n) theories

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

Recently it has been found that in a noncompact lattice regularization of the SU(2) gauge theory the physical volume is larger than in the Wilson theory with the same number of sites. In its original formulation the noncompact regularization is directly applicable to U(n) theories for any n and to SU(n) theories for n=2. In this paper we extend it to SU(n) for any n and investigate some of its properties.
