On the phase structure of five-dimensional SU(2) gauge theories with anisotropic couplings

Francesco Knechtli, Magdalena Luz, Antonio Rago

The phase diagram of five-dimensional SU(2) gauge theories is explored using Monte Carlo simulations of the theory discretized on a Euclidean lattice using the Wilson plaquette act…

New Higgs mechanism from the lattice

F. Knechtli, N. Irges, M. Luz

Spontaneous symmetry breaking has been observed in lattice simulations of five-dimensional gauge theories on an orbifold. This effect is reproduced by perturbation theory if it is…

Higgs mechanism in five-dimensional gauge theories

Magdalena Luz, Nikos Irges, Francesco Knechtli

Lattice simulations of five-dimensional gauge theories on an orbifold revealed that there is spontaneous symmetry breaking. Some of the extra-dimensional components of the gauge fi…

The Higgs mechanism as a cut-off effect

Nikos Irges, Francesco Knechtli, Magdalena Luz

We compute the Coleman-Weinberg potential with a finite cut-off for pure SU(2) and SU(3) five-dimensional gauge theories compactified on an interval. We show that besides the expec…

Determining F_pi from spectral sum rules

Magdalena Luz

We derive spectral sum rules for a system with two quarks coupled to an imaginary isospin chemical potential in the εregime. The sum rules show an explicit dependence on the pion d…

Cutoff effects of Wilson fermions in the absence of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking

Michele Della Morte, Magdalena Luz

We simulate two dimensional QED with two degenerate Wilson fermions and plaquette gauge action. As a consequence of the Mermin-Wagner theorem, in the continuum limit chiral symmetr…
