The fermionic part of the Schr\"odinger functional of QCD is formulated in the lattice regularization with the staggered fermion. The boundary condition imposed on the staggered fermion field are examined in terms of the four-component…
In order to study the running coupling in four-flavour QCD, we review the set-up of the Schr\"odinger functional (SF) with staggered quarks. Staggered quarks require lattices which, in the usual counting, have even spatial lattice extent…
Using the Schr\"odinger functional (SF) with a single staggered fermion field we calculate the SF coupling in four-flavour QCD for a wide range of energies and lattice sizes up to $L/a=16$. Preliminary results for the continuum…
Staggered fermions are constructed for the transverse lattice regularization scheme. The weak perturbation theory of transverse lattice non-compact QED is developed in light-cone gauge, and we argue that for fixed lattice spacing this…
A modified formulation of the Schr\"odinger functional (SF) is proposed. In the continuum it is related to the standard SF by a non-singlet chiral field rotation and therefore referred to as the chirally rotated SF ($\chi$SF). On the…
We revisit the strong coupling limit of the Schwinger model on the lattice using staggered fermions and the hamiltonian approach to lattice gauge theories. Although staggered fermions have no continuous chiral symmetry, they posses a…
Following Symanzik we argue that the Schr\"odinger functional in lattice gauge theories without matter fields has a well-defined continuum limit. Due to gauge invariance no extra counter terms are required. The Schr\"odinger functional is,…
Lattice simulations on SU(2) and SU(3) gauge theories with matter fields in the fundamental, adjoint and two index symmetric representations are needed to determine if these theories are near or within the conformal window as required for…
The set-up of the QCD Schr\"odinger functional (SF) on the lattice with staggered quarks requires an even number of points $L/a$ in the spatial directions, while the Euclidean time extent of the lattice, $T/a$, must be odd. Identifying a…
We study a model of strongly correlated spinless fermions on a kagome lattice at 1/3 filling, with interactions described by an extended Hubbard Hamiltonian. An effective Hamiltonian in the desired strong correlation regime is derived, from…
We show that it is possible to construct a lattice Schroedinger functional for standard Wilson fermions, where the expectation values of ${\cal R}_5$-even operators are O($a$) improved, up to terms coming from the boundaries.
A way to identify the would-be zero-modes of staggered lattice fermions away from the continuum limit is presented. Our approach also identifies the chiralities of these modes, and their index is seen to be determined by gauge field…
The chirally rotated Schr\"odinger functional ($\chi$SF) with massless Wilson-type fermions provides an alternative lattice regularization of the Schr\"odinger functional (SF), with different lattice symmetries and a common continuum limit…
The Schroedinger functional provides a valuable tool to perform non-perturbative renormalization on the lattice, in particular in a mass independent scheme. We study two different types of chirally rotated Schroedinger functional boundary…
In a series of publications [\ref{LNWW},\ref{Schroedinger}], L\"uscher et al. have demonstrated the usefulness of the Schr\"odinger functional in pure SU(2) and SU(3) gauge theory. In this paper, it is shown how their formalism can be…
We define Weyl fermions on a finite lattice in such a way that in the path integral the action is gauge invariant but the functional measure is not. Two variants of such a formulation are tested in perturbative calculation of the fermion…
In order to better understand what to expect from numerical CORE computations for two-dimensional massless QED (the Schwinger model) we wish to obtain some analytic control over the approach to the continuum limit for various choices of…
We discuss some large effects of dynamical fermions. One is a cutoff effect, others concern the contribution of multi-pion states to correlation functions and are expected to survive the continuum limit. We then turn to the preparation for…
