On the reduction of hypercubic lattice artifacts
arXiv:0705.3523 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2007/09/007
Abstract
This note presents a comparative study of various options to reduce the errors coming from the discretization of a Quantum Field Theory in a lattice with hypercubic symmetry. We show that it is possible to perform an extrapolation towards the continuum which is able to eliminate systematically the artifacts which break the O(4) symmetry.
