We prove the existence of the dynamics automorphism group for Hamiltonian QCD on an infinite lattice in R^3, and this is done in a C*-algebraic context. The existence of ground states is also obtained. Starting with the finite lattice model…
We study quantum chromodynamics (QCD) on a finite lattice $\Lambda$ in the Hamiltonian approach. First, we present the field algebra ${\mathfrak A}_{\Lambda}$ as comprising a gluonic part, with basic building block being the crossed product…
We present an operator-algebraic approach to the quantization and reduction of lattice field theories. Our approach uses groupoid C*-algebras to describe the observables and exploits Rieffel induction to implement the quantum gauge…
The local Gauss law of quantum chromodynamics on a finite lattice is investigated. It is shown that it implies a gauge invariant, additive law giving rise to a gauge invariant ${\mathbb Z}_3$-valued global charge in QCD. The total charge…
The Hamiltonian limit of lattice gauge theories can be found by extrapolating the results of anisotropic lattice computations, i.e., computations using lattice actions with different temporal and spatial lattice spacings ($a_t\neq a_s$), to…

As the continuum limit is approached, lattice QCD simulations tend to get trapped in the topological charge sectors of field space and may consequently give biased results in practice. We propose to bypass this problem by imposing open…
We solve the local Gauss law in lattice QCD in the presence of matter charges. This corresponds to constructing singlet states using Schwinger Bosons and Fermions of SU(3) group at each vertex of the lattice. We also calculate the action of…
We expand the gauge field in terms of a suitably constructed complete set of Bloch wave functions, each labeled by a band designation $\,n\,$ and a wave number $\,\vec K\,$ restricted to the Brillouin zone. A noncompact formulation of…
We study the gauge fixing of lattice QCD in 2+1 dimensions, in the Hamiltonian formulation. The technique easily generalizes to other theories and dimensions. The Hamiltonian is rewritten in terms of variables which are gauge invariant…
Using a generalized polar decomposition of the gauge fields into gauge-rotation and gauge-invariant parts, which Abelianises the Non-Abelian Gauss-law constraints, an unconstrained Hamiltonian formulation of QCD can be achieved. The exact…
A Hamiltonian lattice formulation of lattice gauge theories opens the possibility for quantum simulations of the non-perturbative dynamics of QCD. By parametrizing the gauge invariant Hilbert space in terms of plaquette degrees of freedom,…
In this work, we present a brief but insightful overview of the gauge theories, which are defined on $ n $-dimensional lattices by using finite gauge groups, in order to show how they can be interpreted as a Hamiltonian system with…
We show that Hall conductance and its non-abelian and higher-dimensional analogs are obstructions to promoting a symmetry of a state to a gauge symmetry. To do this, we define a local Lie algebra over a Grothendieck site as a pre-cosheaf of…
In this contribution I discuss a recent proposal of a novel action for lattice gauge theory for finite systems, which accommodates non-periodic spatial boundary conditions. Drawing on the summation-by-parts formulation of finite differences…
I begin by discussing the basic ideas of quantum field theory (QFT). I provide a review of symmetries in physics and then move on to discuss the quark model. I then review lattice gauge theory with particular attention paid to lattice QCD…
In this study I develop a novel action for lattice gauge theory for finite systems, which accommodates non-periodic boundary conditions, implements the proper integral form of Gauss' law and exhibits an inherently symmetric energy momentum…
We demonstrate how to construct a fully gauge-fixed lattice Hamiltonian for a pure SU(2) gauge theory. Our work extends upon previous work, where a formulation of an SU(2) lattice gauge theory was developed that is efficient to simulate at…
Lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) will soon become the primary theoretical tool in rigorous studies of single- and multi-hadron sectors of QCD. It is truly ab initio meaning that its only parameters are those of standard model. The…
In order to calculate QED corrections to hadronic physical quantities by means of lattice simulations, a coherent description of electrically-charged states in finite volume is needed. In the usual periodic setup, Gauss's law and large…
