Differential structure of lattices can be defined if the lattices are treated as models of noncommutative geometry. The detailed construction consists of specifying a generalized Dirac operator and a wedge product. Gauge potential and field…

Wilson's formulation of lattice QCD is attractive for many reasons, but perhaps mainly because of its simplicity and conceptual clarity. Numerical simulations of the Wilson theory (and of its improved versions) tend to be extremely…
