θ dependence of SU (N) gauge theories in the presence of a topological term
E Vicari, H Panagopoulos - Physics Reports, 2009 - Elsevier
We review results concerning the θ dependence of 4D SU (N) gauge theories and QCD,
where θ is the coefficient of the CP-violating topological term in the Lagrangian. In particular …

Flavor symmetry and the static potential with hypercubic blocking
A Hasenfratz, F Knechtli - Physical Review D, 2001 - APS
We introduce a new smearing transformation, the hypercubic (HYP) fat link. The hypercubic
fat link mixes gauge links within hypercubes attached to the original link only. Using …

Improving the chiral properties of lattice fermions
T DeGrand, A Hasenfratz, TG Kovacs - Physical Review D, 2003 - APS
The chiral properties of lattice fermions can be improved by altering either their fermion-
gauge coupling or the pure gauge part of the action (or both). Using both perturbation theory …
