We consider a lattice action which forbids large fields, and which remains invariant under smooth deformations of the field. Such a "topological" action depends on one parameter, the field cutoff, but does not have a classical continuum…
Scaling of mass ratios in intermediate volumes, obtained with improved SU(2) lattice actions is tested against analytic results for the Wilson and continuum action. A new improved action is introduced by adding a 2X2 plaquette to the…
Finite cut-off effects strongly influence the thermodynamics of lattice regularized QCD at high temperature in the standard Wilson formulation. We analyze the reduction of finite cut-off effects in formulations of the thermodynamics of…
I have performed scaling tests using quenched spectroscopy of a family of fermion actions which have a hypercubic kinetic term, gauge connections built of smeared links, and an anomalous magnetic moment term. These actions show improved…
The heavy quark self-energy in nonrelativistic lattice QCD is calculated to $O(\alpha_s)$ in perturbation theory. An action which includes all spin-independent relativistic corrections to order $v^2$, where $v$ is the typical heavy quark…

Numerical simulations of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) on a lattice require the frequent solution of linear systems of equations with large, sparse and typically ill-conditioned matrices. Algebraic multigrid methods are meanwhile the…
We study the uniqueness of enhancements of tensor-triangulated categories. To do so, we provide conditions under which these enhancements interact well with categorical decompositions. As an application we obtain new results about the…
We investigate an integrable property and observables of 2 dimensional N=(4,4) topological field theory defined on a discrete lattice by using the "orbifolding" and "deconstruction" methods. We show that our lattice model possesses the…

Calculations of hadron masses are done in quenched approximation using gauge field and fermion actions which are both corrected for discretization errors to $O(a^2)$ at the classical level and which contain tadpole improvement factors. The…
The subdifferential of convex functions of the singular spectrum of real matrices has been widely studied in matrix analysis, optimization and automatic control theory. Convex analysis and optimization over spaces of tensors is now gaining…

We provide some additional evidence in favour of the strong - weak coupling duality between the SO(32) heterotic and type I superstring theories by comparing terms quartic in the gauge field strength in their low-energy effective actions.…
The letter proposes an adaptive model reduction approach based on tensor decomposition to speed up time-domain power system simulation. Taylor series expansion of a power system dynamic model is calculated around multiple equilibria…
We present a general framework where the effective field theory of single field inflation is extended by the inclusion of operators with mass dimension 3 and 4 in the unitary gauge. These higher dimensional operators introduce quartic and…
We discuss how the peculiar properties of maximally twisted Wilson fermions can be exploited to set up a consistent LQCD computational scheme in which the CP-conserving matrix elements of the $\Delta S =1,2$ effective weak Hamiltonian can…
We investigate a new light fermion action (the ``D234'' action), which is accurate up to $\O(a^3)$ and tadpole-improved $\O(a \alpha_s)$ errors. Using D234 with Symanzik- and tadpole-improved glue we find evidence that continuum results for…

We discuss the relationship between target space modular invariance and discrete gauge symmetries in four-dimensional orbifold-like strings. First we derive the modular transformation properties of various string vertex operators of the…
