Approximate symmetries abound in Nature. If these symmetries are also spontaneously broken, the would-be Goldstone modes acquire a small mass, or inverse correlation length, and are referred to as pseudo-Goldstones. At nonzero temperature,…
We suggest that the lattice Dirac spectra in QCD at finite temperature may be understood using a gaussian unitary ensemble for Wilson fermions, and a chiral gaussian unitary ensemble for Kogut-Susskind fermions. For Kogut-Susskind fermions,…
