The Integrated Density of States for the Wilson Dirac Operator

Mathematical Physics 2010-10-11 v2 math.MP

Abstract

It is shown that gauge field-dependent fermion Dirac operators from lattice QCD form an ergodic operator family in the probabilistic sense, provided the gauge field is an ergodic random field. As a consequence, the integrated density of states of such Dirac operators in the thermodynamic limit exists and is almost surely independent of the chosen gauge field configuration.
