We determine the location $\lambda_c$ of the mobility edge in the spectrum of the hermitian Wilson operator in pure-gauge ensembles with plaquette, Iwasaki, and DBW2 gauge actions. The results allow mapping a portion of the (quenched) Aoki…
We examine the N=2 Wess-Zumino model defined on the $d=2$ Euclidean lattice in connection with a restoration of the Leibniz rule in the limit $a\to0$ in perturbatively finite theory. We are interested in the difference between the Wilson…

As computing resources are limited, choosing the parameters for a full Lattice QCD simulation always amounts to a compromise between the competing objectives of a lattice spacing as small, quarks as light, and a volume as large as possible.…
The vacuum polarization due to chiral fermions on a 4--dimensional Euclidean lattice is calculated according to the overlap prescription. The fermions are coupled to weak and slowly varying background gauge and Higgs fields, and the…
