Asymptotically free lattice gauge theory in five dimensions
arXiv:1411.4667 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.91.074508
Abstract
A lattice formulation of Lifshitz-type gauge theories is presented. While the Lorentz-invariant Yang-Mills theory is not renormalizable in five dimensions, non-Abelian Lifshitz-type gauge theories are renormalizable and asymptotically free. We construct a lattice gauge action and numerically examine the continuum limit and the bulk phase structure.
