在手征拉格朗日量的$p$展开式中，计算了费米子行列式的复相位因子的期望值。计算是有效的$μ<m_π/2$，并确定依赖的体积和体积的几何形状上的符号问题。在固定温度$1/L_0$下，在$ L_i \to \infty $的热力学极限中，平均相因子为零。在$L_i/L_0$固定的低温极限中，随着$L_i$变大，平均相位因子接近1。有限体积的结果与Allton { \it et al}得到的晶格结果比较好。在采取适当的限制，我们重现以前推导的结果为$ε$制度和1维QCD。还计算了相位本身的分布。
英文摘要：
The expectation value of the complex phase factor of the fermion determinant is computed to leading order in the $p$-expansion of the chiral Lagrangian. The computation is valid for $μ<m_π/2$ and determines the dependence of the sign problem on the volume and on the geometric shape of the volume. In the thermodynamic limit with $ L_i \to \infty $ at fixed temperature $1/L_0$, the average phase factor vanishes. In the low temperature limit where $L_i/L_0$ is fixed as $L_i$ becomes large the average phase factor approaches one. The results for a finite volume compare well with lattice results obtained by Allton {\it et al}.. After taking appropriate limits, we reproduce previously derived results for the $ε$-regime and for 1-dimensional QCD. The distribution of the phase itself is also computed.
Stabilized Wilson fermions are a reformulation of Wilson clover fermions that incorporates several numerical stabilizing techniques, but also a local change of the fermion action - the original clover term being replaced with an exponentiated version of it. We intend to apply the stabilized Wilson fermions toolbox to the thermodynamics of QCD, starting on the $N_f=3$ symmetric line on the Columbia plot, and to compare the results with those obtained with other fermion discretizations.
In the strong coupling limit, $n$-point functions in lattice QCD with staggered fermions can be rewritten exactly as sums over constrained configurations of monomers, dimers, and baryon loops covering the spacetime lattice. Worm algorithms provide efficient global sampling methods over such ensembles, and are particularly efficient in the chiral limit. We study the thermodynamics of strongly-coupled U(3) and SU(3) lattice QCD with one massless staggered fermion using such methods, and compare the results with the relativistic pion gas down to low temperatures O(15 MeV).
For a long time, strong coupling expansions have not been applied systematically in lattice QCD thermodynamics, in view of the succes of numerical Monte Carlo studies. The persistent sign problem at finite baryo-chemical potential, however, has motivated investigations using these methods, either by themselves or combined with numerical evaluations, as a route to finite density physics. This article reviews the strategies, by which a number of qualitative insights have been attained, notably the emergence of the hadron resonance gas or the identification of the onset transition to baryon matte…
We study the finite temperature transition in QCD with two flavors of dynamical fermions at a pseudoscalar pion mass of about 350 MeV. We use lattices with temporal extent of $N_t$=8, 10 and 12. For the first time in the literature a continuum limit is carried out for several observables with dynamical overlap fermions. These findings are compared with results obtained within the staggered fermion formalism at the same pion masses and extrapolated to the continuum limit. The presented results correspond to fixed topology and its effect is studied in the staggered case. Nice agreement is found …
We continue our investigation of 2+1 flavor QCD thermodynamics using dynamical Wilson fermions in the fixed scale approach. Two additional pion masses, approximately 440 MeV and 285 MeV, are added to our previous work at 545 MeV. The simulations were performed at 3 or 4 lattice spacings at each pion mass. The renormalized chiral condensate, strange quark number susceptibility and Polyakov loop is obtained as a function of the temperature and we observe a decrease in the light chiral pseudo-critical temperature as the pion mass is lowered while the pseudo-critical temperature associated with th…
