The Study of Chiral Restoration using the Quark-Gluon Mixed Condensate g<\bar{q} σG q> in Lattice QCD at Finite Temperature

Abstract

The quark-gluon mixed condensate g<\bar{q} σG q> is studied using SU(3)c lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind fermion at the quenched level. Using the lattices as β= 6.0 with 16^3 * N_t (N_t=16,12,10,8,6,4), β= 6.1 with 20^3 * N_t (N_t=20,12,10,8,6) and β= 6.2 with 24^3 * N_t (N_t=24,16,12,10,8) in high statistics of 100-1000 gauge configurations, we perform accurate measurement of the thermal effects on g<\bar{q} σG q> as well as <\bar{q}q> in the chiral limit. We find that the thermal effects on both the condensates are very weak except for the vicinity of T_c, while both the condensates suddenly vanish around T_c \simeq 280 MeV, which indicates strong chiral restoration near T_c. We also find that the ratio m_0^2 = g<\bar{q} σG q>/ <\bar{q}q> is almost independent of the temperature even in the very vicinity of T_c, which means that these two different condensates obey the same critical behavior. This nontrivial similarity between them would impose constraints on the chiral structure of the QCD vacuum near T_c.

Efficient Quantum Simulations of Yang-Mills theory with Maximal-tree Gauge

We develop a quantum algorithmic framework for the efficient simulation of Yang--Mills theories, including the $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ gauge theory in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The framework uses maximal-tree gauge in terms of gauge field variables that removes all local gauge redundancies. In the resulting gauge-fixed formulation and digitization in the field-amplitude basis, we show that Hamiltonian time evolution admits an efficient implementation based on quantum singular value transformation (QSVT). We derive upper bounds on the total number of qubits and gate complexity, finding polynomial scaling with the inverse simulation precision $1/\varepsilon_s$, lattice volume $\mathcal{V}$, gauge coupling $g$, and target energy scale $E$. Our results provide a rigorous complexity-theoretic demonstration that non-Abelian Yang--Mills theories can be simulated efficiently on quantum computers, paving the way toward first-principles quantum simulations of non-perturbative QCD dynamics.

Accurate Sampling from Diffusion Models

A new proposal called DM-SMC (Diffusion Model - Sequential Monte Carlo) is investigated, which samples ensembles defined in terms of an action, using diffusion models trained on samples from the ensemble. The SMC setup allows for accurate sampling in spite of an approximate diffusion model and the finite stepsize used in the numerical solution of the stochastic process. Improved update strategies are also investigated. Results are presented for a $Z_2$ symmetric scalar field theory in 2 dimensions near its 2nd order phase transition.

Decomposition of the axial-vector current in a finite box

We consider the matrix element of the axial-vector current between two nucleon states in a finite box. Starting from the chiral Lagrangian density with nucleon and Delta-isobar degrees of freedom, we study the finite-volume effects at the one-loop level. We show that the standard decomposition into the axial-vector and pseudoscalar form factor is incomplete in a finite box. We derive expressions for the complete set of in-box form factors at one loop, and demonstrate how to extract the full set from lattice correlation functions. We verify that the axial Ward identity holds in the chiral limit. We derive the one-loop expressions for the pseudoscalar form factor and verify that the in-box axial Ward identity away from the chiral limit is fulfilled also. Selected numerical results are shown for two flavor-SU(2) lattice ensembles. Sizable finite-volume effects are observed, with an important role for the Delta-isobar. We discuss the implications of our results for lattice studies of the axial-vector current. We conclude that full finite-box results are crucial for a precise determination of the form factors.
