Microscopic Universality and the Chiral Phase Transition in two Flavor QCD
F. Farchioni, Ph. de Forcrand, I. Hip +2
We re-analyze data from available finite-temperature QCD simulations near the chiral transition, with the help of Chiral Random Matrix Theory (chRMT). Statistical properties of the…
A Study of Meson Correlators at Finite Temperature
TARO Collaboration, Ph. de Forcrand, M. Garcia Perez +8
We present results for mesonic propagators in temporal and spatial directions at T below and above the deconfining transition in quenched QCD. Anisotropic lattices are used to get…
Renormalization group flow of SU(3) lattice gauge theory - Numerical studies in a two coupling space
Ph. de Forcrand, M. García Pérez, T. Hashimoto +7
We investigate the renormalization group (RG) flow of SU(3) lattice gauge theory in a two coupling space with couplings and corresponding to and $1\ti…
Monte Carlo Renormalization Group analysis of QCD in two dimensional coupling space
TARO Collaboration, Ph. de Forcrand, M. Garcia Perez +8
We report our results of the Monte Carlo Renormalization Group analysis in two dimensional coupling space. The qualitative features of the RG flow are described with a phenomenolog…
The Role of Center Vortices in QCD
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, M. D'Elia
Center vortices are unambiguously identified after Laplacian Center Gauge fixing and their influence on confinement and chiral symmetry breaking is investigated on a sample of SU(2…
Improved Multiboson Algorithm
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, M. D'Elia +1
We compare the performance of an UV-filtered Multiboson algorithm, including a global quasi-heatbath update, to the standard Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm in full QCD with two flavo…
Improving the sign problem in QCD at finite density
Philippe de Forcrand, Victor Laliena
If the fermion mass is large enough, the phase of the fermion determinant of QCD at finite density is strongly correlated with the imaginary part of the Polyakov loop. This fact ca…
The relevance of center vortices
C. Alexandrou, M. D'Elia, Ph. de Forcrand
We show remnants of chiral symmetry breaking in the center-projected theory. We construct and study an unambiguous definition of center vortices.
The role of the Polyakov loop in finite density QCD
Ph. de Forcrand, V. Laliena
We study the behavior of the fermion determinant at finite temperature and chemical potential, as a function of the Polyakov loop. The phase of the determinant is correlated with t…
Efficiency of the UV-filtered Multiboson algorithm
C. Alexandrou, Ph. de Forcrand, M. D'Elia +1
We study the efficiency of an improved Multiboson algorithm with two flavours of Wilson fermions in a realistic physical situation (, on a latt…
On the relevance of center vortices to QCD
Ph. de Forcrand, M. D'Elia
In a numerical experiment, we remove center vortices from an ensemble of lattice SU(2) gauge configurations. This removal adds short-range disorder. Nevertheless, we observe long-r…
