The strongly coupled lattice gauge models show an interesting mechanism of dynamical mass generation. If a suitable continuum limit can be found, one may think of it as an alternative to the Higgs mechanism. We present data on the spectrum,…
We carry out a finite density calculation based on a canonical approach which is designed to address the overlap problem. Two degenerate flavor simulations are performed using Wilson gauge action and Wilson fermions on $4^4$ lattices, at…
We discuss a new approach for putting gauge theories on the lattice. The gauge fields are defined on the lattice only, but are interpolated to the interior of the lattice cells, where they couple to continuum fermions. The purpose of this…
We report new results on nearly conformal gauge theories with fermions in the fundamental representation of the SU(3) color gauge group as the number of fermion flavors is varied in the Nf = 4-16 range. To unambiguously identify the…
In this contribution we give an introduction to the foundations and methods of lattice gauge theory. Starting with a brief discussion of the quantum mechanical path integral, we develop the main ingredients of lattice field theory:…
We show how a strongly coupled lattice theory consisting of just fermions and gauge fields can exhibit a dynamical Higgs mechanism through the formation of a gauge invariant four fermion condensate. Furthermore, we argue that the resultant…
We discuss testing improved actions in the context of finite volume gauge theories, where both results for the continuum and the Wilson lattice action are known analytically for volumes up to 0.7 fermi across. A new improved action is…
The method of synthetic gauge potentials opens up a new avenue for our understanding and discovering novel quantum states of matter. We investigate the topological quantum phase transition of Fermi gases trapped in a honeycomb lattice in…
A framework based on a class of abelian gauge symmetries is proposed in which the masses of only the third generation quarks and leptons arise at the tree level. The fermions of the first and second families receive their masses through…
We calculate the meson spectrum of the Sp(4) lattice gauge theory coupled to two fundamental flavours of dynamical Dirac fermions. We focus on some of the lightest (flavoured) spin-0 and spin-1 states. This theory provides an ultraviolet…
We report on our exploratory study for the evaluation of the parton distribution functions from lattice QCD, based on a new method proposed in Ref.~arXiv:1305.1539. Using the example of the nucleon, we compare two different methods to…
We determine the location $\lambda_c$ of the mobility edge in the spectrum of the hermitian Wilson operator in pure-gauge ensembles with plaquette, Iwasaki, and DBW2 gauge actions. The results allow mapping a portion of the (quenched) Aoki…
This thesis develops advanced Tensor Network (TN) methods to address Hamiltonian Lattice Gauge Theories (LGTs), overcoming limitations in real-time dynamics and finite-density regimes. A novel dressed-site formalism is introduced, enabling…
The dual fermion method is a multiscale approach for solving lattice problems of interacting strongly correlated systems. In this paper, we present the \texttt{opendf} code, an open-source implementation of the dual fermion method…
I present first results from large-scale lattice investigations of SU(3) gauge theory with eight light flavors in the fundamental representation. Using leadership computing resources at Argonne, we are generating gauge configurations with…
We propose a construction of a 2-dimensional lattice chiral gauge theory. The construction may be viewed as a particular limit of an infinite warped 3-dimensional theory. We also present a "single-site'' construction using Ginsparg-Wilson…
Lattice simulations have observed a novel strong coupling symmetric mass generation (SMG) phase for the SU(3) gauge system with $N_f=8$ fundamental fermions (represented by two sets of staggered fields) at very large renormalized coupling…
We present a non-perturbative lattice study of SU(4) gauge theory with two flavors of fermions in the fundamental representation and two in the two-index antisymmetric representation: a theory closely related to a minimal…
We explore a $Z_2$ Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory in one spatial dimension with a coupling $h$, without imposing any Gauss' law constraint. We show that in our model $h=0$ is a free deconfined quantum critical point containing massless…
We construct a hierarchy of lattice fermions, where the coarser lattice Dirac operator is the Schur complement of the block UL decomposition of the finer lattice operator. We show that the construction is an exact gauged renormalisation…
