The Deconfinement Phase Transition of Sp(2) and Sp(3) Yang-Mills Theories in 2+1 and 3+1 Dimensions
K. Holland, M. Pepe, U. -J. Wiese
Some time ago, Svetitsky and Yaffe have argued that -- if the deconfinement phase transition of a (d+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with gauge group G is second order -- it shoul…
The deconfinement phase transition in Yang-Mills theory with general Lie group G
K. Holland, M. Pepe, U. -J. Wiese
We present numerical results for the deconfinement phase transition in Sp(2) and Sp(3) Yang-Mills theories in (2+1)-D and (3+1)-D. We then make a conjecture on the order of this ph…
When is the deconfinement phase transition universal?
K. Holland, M. Pepe, U. -J. Wiese
Pure Yang-Mills theory has a finite-temperature phase transition, separating the confined and deconfined bulk phases. Svetitsky and Yaffe conjectured that if this phase transition…
How light can the Higgs be?
K. Holland, J. Kuti
It is widely believed that, for a given Top mass, the Higgs mass has a lower bound: if m_Higgs is too small, the Higgs vacuum is unstable due to Top dynamics. From vacuum instabili…
Quenched spectroscopy with fixed-point and chirally improved fermions
BGR Collaboration, Christof Gattringer, Meinulf Gockeler +10
We present results from quenched spectroscopy calculations with the parametrized fixed-point and the chirally improved Dirac operators. Both these operators are approximate solutio…
Exceptional Confinement in G(2) Gauge Theory
K. Holland, P. Minkowski, M. Pepe +1
We study theories with the exceptional gauge group G(2). The 14 adjoint "gluons" of a G(2) gauge theory transform as {3}, {3bar} and {8} under the subgroup SU(3), and hence have th…
