We have simulated the pure gauge compact QED with fixed boundary conditions, on lattices from $6^4$ to $16^4$. We argue that a lattice with this fixed boundary imposition corresponds actually to a lattice with spherical topology. We have…
In this talk we present some recent and new results on the phase structure and the continuum limit of lattice formulation of pure gauge QED coupled to Higgs fields. We show the presence of second order phase transition lines allowing for a…
Finite size scaling studies of monopole condensation in noncompact quenched lattice $QED$ indicate an authentic second order phase transition lying in the universality class of four dimensional percolation. Since the upper critical…
Pure gauge compact QED on hypercubic lattices is considered with periodically closed monopole currents suppressed. We compute observables on sublattices which are nested around the centre of the lattice in order to locate regions where…
The existence of the monopole condensation transition reported by Kocic et al. in non-compact, quenched QED is tested. No phase transition is found. This shows that divergence of the `monopole susceptibility' introduced by Hands and Wensley…
We study the deconfinement phase transition of compact $U(1)$ pure lattice gauge theory with the Wilson action on {\em closed topology} lattices. In contrast to studies of compact QED on {\em hypercubic lattices with periodic boundary…
We have performed a systematic study of the phase transition in the pure compact U(1) lattice gauge theory in the extended coupling parameter space (\beta, \gamma) on toroidal and spherical lattices. The observation of a non-zero latent…
We propose a method to probe the nature of phase transitions in lattice QCD at finite temperature and density, which is based on the investigation of an effective potential as a function of the average plaquette. We analyze data obtained in…
We study the deconfinement phase transition and monopole properties in the finite temperature 3D compact Abelian gauge model on the lattice. We predict the critical coupling as function of the lattice size in a simplified model to describe…
The role of monopoles in quenched compact QED has been studied by measuring the cluster susceptibility and the order parameter $n_{max}/n_{tot}$ previously introduced by Hands and Wensley in the study of the percolation transition observed…
We have studied the properties of the phase transition in the U(1) compact pure gauge model paying special atention to the influence of the topology of the boundary conditions. From the behavior of the energy cumulants and the observation…
We present a detailed study of the properties of the phase transition in the four-dimensional compact U(1) lattice gauge theory supplemented by a monopole term, for values of the monopole coupling $\lambda$ such that the transition is of…
The phase diagram and critical behavior of scalar quantum electrodynamics are investigated using lattice gauge theory techniques. The lattice action fixes the length of the scalar (``Higgs'') field and treats the gauge field as non-compact.…
We present evidence that the existence of a first order phase transition in compact U(1) with Wilson action is not related to monopole loops wrapping around the toroidal lattice, as has been previously suggested. Our analysis is based on…
We investigate the phase structure of pure compact U(1) lattice gauge theory in 4 dimensions with the Wilson action supplemented by a monopole term. To overcome the suppression of transitions between the phases in the simulations we make…
We present evidence about a critical behavior of $4D$ compact QED (CQED) pure gauge theory. Regularizing the theory on lattices homotopic to a sphere, we present evidence for a critical, i.e. second order like behavior at the deconfinement…
Monopole Percolation was first introduced in the study of the non-compact lattice QED in both, the pure case and coupled to Higgs fields. Monopole percolation has been also observed coupled to the monopole condensation in the study of the…
Compact lattice Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) with four species of fermions is simulated with massless quarks by using the $\chi$QED scheme of adding a four-fermi interaction to the action. Simulations directly in the chiral limit of…
We study the phase transition in the abelian lattice gauge theory using the Wilson-Polyakov line as the order parameter. The Wilson-Polyakov line remains very small at strong coupling and becomes non-zero at weak coupling, signalling a…
We study the phase diagram of the 4d compact U(1) gauge theory as a function of the number of Euclidean time slices. We use the helicity modulus as order parameter to probe the phase transitions. The order of the transition along the phase…
