U(1) lattice gauge theory with $\theta$-term is investigated by real space renormalization group approach. Flows of renormalized coupling constants are analyzed. For each $\theta$, renormalization flows converge to a single trajectory…
SU(2) gauge theory is investigated with a lattice action which is insensitive to small perturbations of the lattice gauge fields. Bare perturbation theory can not be defined for such actions at all. We compare non-perturbative continuum…
We discuss a general framework for the realization of a family of abelian lattice gauge theories, i.e., link models or gauge magnets, in optical lattices. We analyze the properties of these models that make them suitable to quantum…
We study the two-dimensional lattice multicomponent Abelian-Higgs model, which is a lattice compact U(1) gauge theory coupled with an N-component complex scalar field, characterized by a global SU(N) symmetry. In agreement with the…
We construct the zero temperature (no compact dimensions) effective action for an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in five dimensions, with boundary conditions that reduce the symmetry on the four-dimensional boundary located at the origin to a…
Quantum technologies offer the prospect to efficiently simulate sign-problem afflicted regimes in lattice field theory, such as the presence of topological terms, chemical potentials, and out-of-equilibrium dynamics. In this work, we derive…
Non-abelian gauge theories play an important role in the standard model of particle physics, and unfold a partially unexplored world of exciting physical phenomena. In this letter, we suggest a realization of a non-abelian lattice gauge…
We make an analysis of the two-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory with a $\theta$ term by using the tensor renormalization group. Our numerical result for the free energy shows good consistency with the exact one at finite coupling…
We address the question of the order of the deconfinement phase transition of four dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory. Simulations of the Z-gauge theory dual to the Villain action on toroidal lattices up to lattice sizes of 28^4 give…
We construct a U(1) gerbe with a connection over a finite-dimensional, classical phase space P. The connection is given by a triple of forms A,B,H: a potential 1-form A, a Neveu-Schwarz potential 2-form B, and a field-strength 3-form H=dB.…
This is an edited version of an unpublished 1979 EFI (U. Chicago) preprint: "The U(N) lattice gauge theory in 2-dimensions can be considered as the statistical mechanics of a Coulomb gas on a circle in a constant electric field. The large N…
An Abelian gerbe is constructed over classical phase space. The 2-cocycles defining the gerbe are given by Feynman path integrals whose integrands contain the exponential of the Poincare-Cartan form. The U(1) gauge group on the gerbe has a…
The overview is given of the results obtained recently in the course of renormalization-group (RG) study of two-dimensional (2D) models. RG functions of the two-dimensional n-vector \lambda \phi^4 Euclidean field theory are written down up…
In two dimensions, $U(N_c)$ gauge theories exhibit a non-trivial topological structure, while $SU(N_c)$ theories are topologically trivial. Hence, for $G = U(N_c)$ the phase space is divided into topological sectors, characterized by a…
$2$-form abelian and non-abelian gauge fields on $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattices have been discussed in the past by various authors and most recently by Lipstein and Reid-Edwards. In this note we recall that the Hamiltonian of a…
SU(2) lattice gauge theory with four flavors of quarks is simulated at nonzero chemical potential mu and temperature T and the results are compared to the predictions of Effective Lagrangians. Simulations on 16^4 lattices indicate that at…
We discuss a particular lattice discretization of abelian gauge theories in arbitrary dimensions. The construction is based on gauging the center symmetry of a non-compact abelian gauge theory, which results in a Villain type action. We…
We investigate 4$d$ SU(2) lattice gauge theory with Regge--Einstein quantum gravity on a dynamically coupled Regge skeleton. To overview the phase diagram we perform simulations on a small $2\cdot 4^3$ system. Evidence for an…
We formulate the theory of a 2-form gauge field on a Euclidean spacetime lattice. In this approach, the fundamental degrees of freedom live on the faces of the lattice, and the action can be constructed from the sum over Wilson surfaces…
We report on progress in full quantum understanding of thermalization in non-Abelian gauge theories. Specifically, we test the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis for (2+1)-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory.
