In \textit{JHEP} \textbf{04} (2024) 126 [arXiv:2402.06561] we recently proposed an out-of-equilibrium setup to reduce the large auto-correlations of the topological charge in two-dimensional $\mathrm{CP}^{N-1}$ models. Our proposal consists…
We compute the topological susceptibility of the SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in the large-N limit with a percent level accuracy. This is achieved by measuring the gradient-flow definition of the susceptibility at three values of the lattice…
TEK reduction is a well-established technique that allows single-site simulations of Yang-Mills theory in the large-$N_c$ limit by exploiting volume reduction induced by twisted boundary conditions. We performed simulations for $SU(841)$…
A non-perturbative finite-size scaling technique is used to study the evolution of the running coupling (in a certain adapted scheme) in the SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. At low energies contact is made with the fundamental dynamical scales,…
Sampling topological quantities in the Monte Carlo simulation of Lattice Gauge Theory becomes challenging as we approach the continuum limit of the theory. In this work, we introduce a Conditional Normalizing Flow (C-NF) model to sample…
We investigate the SU(3) Yang Mills theory at small gradient flow time and at short distances. Lattice spacings down to $a=0.015$ fm are simulated with open boundary conditions to allow topology to flow in and out. We study the behaviour of…
We perform the step-scaling investigation of the running coupling constant, using the gradient-flow scheme, in SU(3) gauge theory with twelve massless fermions in the fundamental representation. The Wilson plaquette gauge action and…
At fine lattice spacings, Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations of QCD and other gauge theories with or without fermions are plagued by slow modes that give rise to large autocorrelation times. This can lead to simulation runs that are…
We simulate $4d$ $SU(N)$ pure-gauge theories at large $N$ using a parallel tempering scheme that combines simulations with open and periodic boundary conditions, implementing the algorithm originally proposed by Martin Hasenbusch for $2d$…
We find that using open boundary condition in the temporal direction can yield the expected value of the topological susceptibility in lattice SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. As a further check, we show that the result agrees with numerical…
Global topological charge decorrelates very slowly or even freezes in fine lattice simulations. On the other hand, its local fluctuations are expected to survive and lead to the correct physical results as long as the volume is large…
Motivated by the recently-established connection between Jarzynski's equality and the theoretical framework of Stochastic Normalizing Flows, we investigate a protocol relying on out-of-equilibrium lattice Monte Carlo simulations to mitigate…
A parametrization of the lattice spacing ($a$) in terms of the bare coupling ($\beta$) for the SU(3) Yang--Mills theory with the Wilson gauge action is given in a wide range of~$\beta$. The Yang--Mills gradient flow with respect to the flow…
The renormalization functions involved in the determination of the topological susceptibility in the SU(2) lattice gauge theory are extracted by direct measurements, without relying on perturbation theory. The determination exploits the…
In this paper we investigate, by means of numerical lattice simulations, the topological properties of the trace deformed $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory defined on $S_1\times\mathbb{R}^3$. More precisely, we evaluate the topological…
Recently the Yang-Mills gradient flow of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory has been calculated in the range from $\beta=6/g_0^2=6.3$ to~7.5 (Asakawa et al.), where $g_0^2$ is the bare coupling constant of the SU(3) Wilson action. Estimates of…
In theories with topological sectors, such as lattice QCD and four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories with periodic boundary conditions, conventional update algorithms suffer from topological freezing due to large action barriers separating…
A novel method to study the bulk thermodynamics in lattice gauge theory is proposed on the basis of the Yang-Mills gradient flow with a fictitious time t. The energy density (epsilon) and the pressure (P) of SU(3) gauge theory at fixed…
The use of the Yang-Mills gradient flow in step-scaling studies of lattice QCD is expected to lead to results of unprecedented precision. Step scaling is usually based on the Schr\"odinger functional, where time ranges over an interval…
The Yang-Mills gradient flow is considered on the four dimensional torus T^4 for SU(N) gauge theory coupled to N_f flavors of massless fermions in arbitrary representations. The small volume dynamics is dominated by the constant gauge…
