Simulating the Schroedinger functional with two pseudo-fermions: algorithmic study and the running mass

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We present an algorithmic study for the simulation of two massless flavors of O(a) improved Wilson quarks with Schroedinger functional boundary conditions. The algorithm used is Hybrid Monte Carlo with two pseudo-fermion fields as proposed by M. Hasenbusch. A gain in CPU cost of a factor two is reached when compared to one pseudo-fermion field due to the larger possible step-size. This study is integrated in the ALPHA project for the computation of the running of the renormalized quark mass. We include an update on these physics results.
