Disconnected Diagrams

What is Lattice QCD?Taming disconnected diagrams

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)

--- the fundamental theory of the strong interaction (quarks and gluons)

• 2 "Actions" - gluon and quark. • Does the "path integral" automatically via Monte Carlo

simulation.• Degrees of freedom are the points in space, colors, spin

and particle/anti-particle.• Lattice scale "a" set by renormalization group behavior.• Quark propagators are matrix inverses of the "mass

matrix".

Aspects of lattice QCD

Field strength tensor: Fμν =∂Aμ −∂Aν +g[Aμ ,Aν ]

Covariant derivative: Dμ =∂μ +gAμ

Subtraction basics

(Ax =ηl )

• Perturbative subtraction (PS) (Q = M-1):

Should work best for small (large quark mass).

• Eigenspectrum (ES) subtraction:

Should work best for large (small quark mass).

• Can also combine PS and ES methods

• Deflation is a important new method in Lattice studies, which will become more important for smaller quark masses. Effective in a Hermitian or non-Hermitian context.

• Eigenspectrum subtraction is helpful for disconnected diagrams at small quark masses. Extension to Fortran (larger lattices) is almost finished.

• Thanks to Ron Morgan and Victor Guerrero for their invaluable contributions!
