Critical or Tricritical Point in Mixed-Action SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory?
An analysis of scaling along the first-order bulk transition line in fundamental-adjoint SU(2) lattice gauge theory strongly supports the firstorder endpoint being a tricritical point, and is inconsistent with it being an ordinary critical point as is usually assumed. If tricritical, the transition must continue from the endpoint further into the phase diagram as a second-order bulk transition ...
متن کاملNew Results from Mixed-action Lattice Gauge Theory
Lattice gauge theory involves a particular choice of discretisation of the gauge action, notably in the representation of the gauge group. Physical results should be independent of that choice (an example of universality). We use a combination of two different representations: in our case, only one of these is irreducible. We extend and attempt to clarify recent results which showed possible pr...
متن کاملThermal Phase Transition in Mixed Action Su(3) Lattice Gauge Theory and Wilson Fermion Thermodynamics
We study the thermal phase diagram of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory with fundamental and adjoint couplings. We improve previous estimates of the position of the bulk transition line and determine the thermal deconfinement transition lines for Nt = 2, 4, 6, and 8. The endpoint of the bulk transition line (βf , βa) = (4.00(7), 2.06(8)) improves upon earlier estimates obtained using smaller latt...
متن کاملCritical properties and monopoles in U ( 1 ) lattice gauge theory
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 λ such that the transition is of second order. By a finite size analysis we show that at λ = 0.9 the critical exponent is already characteristic of a second-order transition. Moreover, we find that th...
متن کاملLoop Action for Lattice U(1) Gauge Theory
It is showed that the very recently introduced Lagrangian loop formulation of the lattice Maxwell theory is equivalent to the Villain form in 2+1 dimensions. A transparent description of the classical loop action is given in pure geometrical terms for the 2 + 1 and 3 + 1 dimensional cases. The loop formalism was introduced some time ago as a general analytical Hamiltonian approach based on the ...
