We propose a lattice action including unphysical Wilson fermions with a negative mass m_0 of the order of the inverse lattice spacing. With this action, the exact zero mode of the hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator H_W(m_0) cannot appear and…

We find the lattice spacing dependence of the eigenvalue density of the non-Hermitian Wilson Dirac operator in the $\epsilon$-domain. The starting point is the joint probability density of the corresponding random matrix theory. In addition…
An algorithm to simulate full QCD with 3 colours at nonzero chemical potential on the lattice is proposed. The algorithm works for small values of the chemical potential and can be used to extract expectation values of CPT invariant…
We study the eigenvalue spectrum of different lattice Dirac operators (staggered, fixed point, overlap) and discuss their dependence on the topological sectors. Although the model is 2D (the Schwinger model with massless fermions) our…
We consider the effect of discretization errors on the microscopic spectrum of the Wilson Dirac operator using both chiral Perturbation Theory and chiral Random Matrix Theory. A graded chiral Lagrangian is used to evaluate the microscopic…
Covergent eigensolutions of the Dirac Equation for a relativistic electron in an external Coulomb potential are obtained using the Lanczos Algorithm. A tri-diagonal matrix representation of the Dirac Hamiltonian operator is constructed…

The overlap lattice-Dirac operator contains the sign function $\epsilon (H)$. Recent practical implementations replace $\epsilon (H)$ by a ratio of polynomials, $H P_n (H^2)/Q_n (H^2)$, and require storage of $2n+2$ large vectors. Here I…
We construct new Ginsparg-Wilson fermions for QCD by inserting an approximately chiral Dirac operator - which involves ingredients of a perfect action - into the overlap formula. This accelerates the convergence of the overlap Dirac…
We provide convergence rates for Krylov subspace solutions to the trust-region and cubic-regularized (nonconvex) quadratic problems. Such solutions may be efficiently computed by the Lanczos method and have long been used in practice. We…
