Abstract

The lattice regularized pure gauge compact U(1) theory is an ideal laboratory to explore how confinement is realized as its phase diagram has a confined and a deconfined phase that depends on the value of the coupling constant, i.e. on $\beta$. Herein, the connection between confinement and positivity violation through the Schwinger function associated with the Landau gauge photon propagator is investigated. The simulations reported show a very clear link between the realization of confinement and positivity violation of the photon Schwinger function and, therefore, of the photon K\"all\'en-Lehmann spectral density. Furthermore, a mass scale that characterizes the decay of the Schwinger function for small time separations is computed and used to distinguish the two phases of the theory., Comment: Version accepted for publication in PRD. New material added together with new extra references. It has now 8 pages and 4 Figures

116. Lattice artefacts on the Landau gauge gluon propagator from hypercubic tensor representations

Author

Catumba, Guilherme, Oliveira, Orlando, and Silva, Paulo J.

Subjects
High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract

Lattice tensor representations are used to investigate the lattice Landau gauge gluon propagator for the 4-dimensional pure SU(3) Yang-Mills gauge theory. Due to the different symmetry structure of hypercubic lattices compared to the continuum space-time, lattice correlation functions are described by different tensor structures. Therefore, form factors describing lattice correlation functions have, in principle, non-trivial relations with the continuum counterparts. The use of several tensor bases respecting lattice symmetries, and the analysis of its completeness allows to quantify the deviations of the lattice results from the continuum theory, and also estimate the theoretical uncertainty in the propagator. Furthermore, our analysis tests continuum based relations with the lattice data and shows that the lattice Landau gauge gluon propagator is suitably described by a unique form factor, as in the continuum formulation. Additionally, we identified classes of kinematic configurations where these deviations are minimal and the continuum description of lattice tensors is improved., Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, Lattice 2021 Conference, Proceedings of Science

Abstract

We study the Landau-gauge quark-gluon vertex with 2 flavours of O(a)improved Wilson fermions, for several lattice spacings and quark masses. In the limit of vanishing gluon momentum, we find that all nonzero form factors have a significant infrared strength, and that the leading form factor lambda_1, multiplying the tree-level vertex structure, is significantly enhanced in the infrared compared to the quenched case. We find that all form factors are further enhanced in the infrared as the chiral and continuum limits are approached., Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures (21 plots), presented at the 38th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory (Lattice 2021)

Abstract

We revisit the computation of the three-gluon vertex in the Landau gauge using lattice QCD simulations with large physical volumes of $\sim$ (6.5 fm)$^ 4$ and $\sim$ (8 fm)$^ 4$ and large statistical ensembles. For the kinematical configuration analysed, that is described by a unique form factor, an evaluation of the lattice artefacts is also performed. Particular attention is given to the low energy behaviour of vertex and its connection with evidence (or lack of it) of infrared ghost dominance., Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, proceedings of the online conference "A Virtual Tribute to Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum"

119. Confinement/Deconfinement in 4D compact QED on the lattice

Author

Loveridge, Lee C., Oliveira, Orlando, and Silva, Paulo J.

Subjects
High Energy Physics - Lattice
Abstract

It has long been known that there is a phase transition between confined and unconfined phases of compact pure gauge QED on the lattice. In this work we report three manifestations of this phase change as seen in the Landau gauge photon propagator, the static potential, and distribution of Dirac Strings in the gauge fixed configurations. Each of these was calculated with large lattices with volumes: $32^4$, $48^4$ and $96^4$. We show that the confined phase manifests with a Yukawa type propagator with a dynamically generated mass gap, a linearly increasing potential, and a significant concentration of Dirac strings while the unconfined phase appears consistent with the continuum results: a free propagator, a near constant long-distance potential, and a small concentration of Dirac strings trending towards zero. Furthermore, the photon propagator is investigated in detail near the transition between the two phases., Comment: 8 pages 9 figures

Abstract

The lattice three-gluon vertex in the Landau gauge is revisited using a large physical volume $\sim(8\textrm{fm})^4$ and a large statistical ensemble. The improved calculation explores the symmetries of the hypercubic lattice to reduce the statistical uncertainties and addresses the evaluation of the lattice artefacts. Special attention is given to the low energy behaviour of the vertex and its relation to ghost dominance., Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures, Lattice 2021 proceedings

121. Looking at the analytic structure of Landau gauge propagators

Abstract

We report on a study of the analytical structure of the Landau gauge gluon, ghost and quark propagators taken from lattice simulations using large physical volumes, to better access the IR region, and large gauge ensembles to reduce the statistical uncertainties. The investigation uses Pad\'e approximants to look at poles and branch cuts for each of the propagators. For the gluon propagator we identify complex conjugate poles and a branch point. For the ghost propagator the procedure identifies a pole at zero momentum and a branch point for Minkowski-like momenta. The quark propagator appears to have a pole for Minkowski-like momenta that is correlated with the pion mass as expected from PCAC., Comment: Proceedings of he 38th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory, LATTICE2021, 26th-30th July, 2021

122. Lattice pure gauge compact QED in the Landau gauge: the photon propagator, the phase structure and the presence of Dirac strings

Author

Loveridge, Lee C., Oliveira, Orlando, and Silva, Paulo J.

Subjects
High Energy Physics - Lattice, High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
Abstract

In this work we investigate the lattice Landau gauge photon propagator together with the average number of Dirac strings in the compact formulation of QED for the pure gauge version of the theory as a function of the coupling constant. Their $\beta$ dependence show that these two quantities can be used to identify the confinement-deconfinement transition and that the nature of this transition is first order. Our results show that in the confined phase the propagator is always finite, the theory has a mass gap and the number of Dirac strings present in the configuration is two orders of magnitude larger than in the deconfined phase. Furthermore, in the deconfined phase where $ \beta \ge 1.0125$ the theory becomes massless, there are essentially no Dirac strings and the photon propagator diverges when the limit $p \rightarrow 0^+$ is taken. Our results illustrate the importance of the topological structures in the dynamics of the two phases., Comment: Minor changes and two new references. Version accepted for publication in PRD

137. Non-perturbative BRST symmetry and the spectral structure of the ghost propagator

Abstract

In BRST-quantised Yang-Mills theory the existence of BRST symmetry imposes significant constraints on the analytic structure of the continuum theory. In particular, the presence of this symmetry in the non-perturbative regime implies that any on-shell state with vanishing norm must have an associated partner state with identical mass, but negative inner product. In this work we demonstrate that for quantum chromodynamics (QCD) this constraint gives rise to an interconnection between the ghost and gluon spectra, and in doing so provides a non-trivial test of whether BRST symmetry is realised non-perturbatively. By analysing infrared lattice data for the minimal Landau gauge ghost propagator in pure $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ Yang-Mills theory, and comparing this with previous results for the gluon propagator, we show that this interconnection is violated, and hence conclude that continuum and current lattice formulations of Yang-Mills theory in Landau gauge represent two distinct realisations of the theory., Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure; v2: additional comments and references added, matches published version

138. NimbleChain: Speeding up cryptocurrencies in general-purpose permissionless blockchains

Author

Silva, Paulo, Matos, Miguel, and Barreto, João

Abstract

Nakamoto's seminal work gave rise to permissionless blockchains -- as well as a wide range of proposals to mitigate their performance shortcomings. Despite substantial throughput and energy efficiency achievements, most proposals only bring modest (or marginal) gains in transaction commit latency. Consequently, commit latencies in today's permissionless blockchain landscape remain prohibitively high. This paper proposes NimbleChain, a novel algorithm that extends permissionless blockchains based on Nakamoto consensus with a fast path that delivers causal promises of commitment, or simply promises. Since promises only partially order transactions, their latency is only a small fraction of the totally-ordered commitment latency of Nakamoto consensus. Still, the weak consistency guarantees of promises are strong enough to correctly implement cryptocurrencies. To the best of our knowledge, NimbleChain is the first system to bring together fast, partially-ordered transactions with consensus-based, totally-ordered transactions in a permissionless setting. This hybrid consistency model is able to speed up cryptocurrency transactions while still supporting smart contracts, which typically have (strong) sequential consistency needs. We implement NimbleChain as an extension of Ethereum and evaluate it in a 500-node geo-distributed deployment. The results show NimbleChain can promise a cryptocurrency transactions up to an order of magnitude faster than a vanilla Ethereum implementation, with marginal overheads.
