Emergent spin

Michael Creutz

Quantum mechanics and relativity in the continuum imply the well known spin-statistics connection. However for particles hopping on a lattice, there is no such constraint. If a lat…

Effective potential for SU(2) Polyakov loops and Wilson loop eigenvalues

Dominik Smith, Adrian Dumitru, Robert Pisarski +1

We simulate SU(2) gauge theory at temperatures ranging from slightly below to roughly for two different values of the gauge coupling. Using a histogram method, we extr…

Quark masses, the Dashen phase, and gauge field topology

Michael Creutz

The CP violating Dashen phase in QCD is predicted by chiral perturbation theory to occur when the up-down quark mass difference becomes sufficiently large at fixed down-quark mass.…

Proton decay matrix elements on the lattice

Y. Aoki, E. Shintani, A. Soni

Hadronic matrix elements of proton decay are essential ingredients to bridge the grand unification theory to low energy observables like proton lifetime. In this paper we non-pertu…
