Trained lattice samplers are usually judged by the ensembles they generate. Here we instead analyze the trained field-space function itself: a flow-matching velocity, a diffusion score, or a normalizing-flow action residual. We project…
We investigate the approach of pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory with the Wilson action to its continuum limit using the deconfining transition, Luescher's gradient flow, and the cooling flow to set the scale. Of those, the cooling flow turns…

We present the numerical equivalence between the Wilson flow and stout-link smearing, both of which are known to be a relatively new technique for smoothing the gauge fields on the lattice. Although the conceptional correspondence between…
In fluid dynamics, the scaling behaviour of flow length scales is commonly used to infer the governing force balance of a system. The key to a successful approach is to measure length scales that are representative of the energy contained…
