We simulate $ SU(2) $ lattice gauge theory using dynamical reduced staggered fermions. The latter lead to two rather than four Dirac fermions in the continuum limit. We review the derivation and properties of reduced staggered fermions and…
Motivated by recent scenarios of exotic infrared behaviour and by earlier lattice findings, we present results for the SU(2) gauge theory with one Dirac flavor in the adjoint representation. This provides a major update on our previous…
We analyze the low-lying spectrum and eigenmodes of lattice Dirac operators with a twisted mass term. The twist term expels the eigenvalues from a strip in the complex plane and all eigenmodes obtain a non-vanishing matrix element with…
QCD monopoles are magnetically charged quasiparticles whose Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) at $T<T_c$ creates electric confinement and flux tubes. The "magnetic scenario" of QCD proposes that scattering on the non-condensed component of…
It has long been known that there is a phase transition between confined and unconfined phases of compact pure gauge QED on the lattice. In this work we report three manifestations of this phase change as seen in the Landau gauge photon…
The 4D compact U(1) lattice gauge theory (LGT) in the confinement phase is studied with the multi-level algorithm. The static potential, force and flux-tube profile between two static charges are precisely measured from correlation…
This paper is devoted to a general min-max characterization of the eigenvalues in a gap of the essential spectrum of a self-adjoint unbounded operator. We prove an abstract theorem, then we apply it to the case of Dirac operators with a…
We investigate the low-lying eigenmodes of the Dirac matrix with the aim to gain more insight into the temperature dependence of the anomalous $U_A(1)$ symmetry. We use the overlap operator to probe dynamical QCD configurations generated…
The eigenvalue spectrum $\rho(\lambda)$ of the Dirac operator is numerically calculated in lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of dynamical domain-wall fermions. In the high-energy regime, the discretization effects become significant. We subtract…
Remarkable symmetry properties appear to arise in lattice calculations of correlation functions in which the lowest-lying eigenmodes of the Dirac operator in quark propagators are removed by hand. The Banks-Casher relation ties the chiral…
The distribution of individual Dirac eigenvalues is derived by relating them to the density and higher eigenvalue correlation functions. The relations are general and hold for any gauge theory coupled to fermions under certain conditions…
We study statistical properties of matrix elements of observables written in the energy eigenbasis and truncated to small microcanonical windows. We present numerical evidence indicating that for all few body operators in chaotic many-body…
We study the phase diagram for staggered quarks using chiral perturbation theory. In beyond-the-standard-model simulations using a large number ($>8$) of staggered fermions, unphysical phases appear for coarse enough lattice spacing. We…
The eigenvalues of the Dirac operator at finite volume encode whether or not chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken in a massless theory. We apply this framework in a particular BSM context, namely SU(3) gauge theory with N_f=2 massless…
We calculate the leading contribution to the spectral density of the Wilson Dirac operator using chiral perturbation theory where volume and lattice spacing corrections are given by universal scaling functions. We find analytical…
Two numerical algorithms for the computation of eigenvalues of Dirac operators in lattice gauge theories are described: one is an accelerated conjugate gradient method, the other one a standard Lanczos method. Results obtained by Cullum's…
We discuss the role of the U(1) axial symmetry for the phase structure of QCD at finite temperature. In particular, supported by recent lattice results, we analyse a scenario in which a U(1)-breaking condensate survives across the chiral…
The stability of the Dirac spin-liquid on two-dimensional lattices has long been debated. It was recently demonstrated [Nature Commun. 10, 4254 (2019) and Phys. Rev. B 93, 144411 (2016)] that the staggered $\pi$-flux Dirac spin-liquid phase…
Invariant ensembles of random matrices are characterized by the distribution of their eigenvalues $\{\lambda_1,\cdots,\lambda_N\}$. We study the distribution of truncated linear statistics of the form $\tilde{L}=\sum_{i=1}^p f(\lambda_i)$…
We perform a comprehensive study of the properties of Dirac eigenvalue spectrum in QCD as a function of temperature on the lattice. In addition to effects due to interplay between interactions and disorder inherently present in a many-body…
