چکیده
We report on our ongoing investigation of the deconfining phase transition in SU(4) and SU(6) gauge theories. We calculate the critical couplings while taking care to avoid the influence of a nearby bulk phase transition. We determine the latent heat of the phase transition and investigate the order and the strength of the transition at large Nc. We also report on our determination of the critical temperature expressed in units of the string tension in the large Nc limit.

The phase diagram of SO(3) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature is investigated by Monte Carlo techniques with a view i) to understand the relationship between the deconfinement phase transitions in the SU(2) and SO(3) lattice gauge theories and ii) to resolve the current ambiguity of the nature of the high temperature phases of the latter. Phases with positive and negative adjoint Polyak...

A method is proposed for latticizing a class of supersymmetric gauge theories, including N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. The technique is inspired by recent work on “deconstruction”. Part of the target theory’s supersymmetry is realized exactly on the lattice, reducing or eliminating the need for fine tuning. (Talk based on the paper Supersymmetry on a Spatial Lattice, hep-lat/0206019, by D.B.K., ...

We present a new parametrization of a SU(3) fixed point (FP) gauge action using smeared (”fat”) gauge links. We report on the scaling behaviour of the FP action on coarse lattices by means of the static quark-antiquark potential, the hadronic scale r0, the string tension σ and the critical temperature Tc of the deconfining phase transition. In addition, we investigate the low lying glueball mas...
