abstract

  • Large N gauge theories with adjoint matter can be numerically studied using lattice techniques. Eguchi-Kawai reductions holds for this theory and one can reduce the lattice model to a single site. Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm can be used to simulate this model. One can either perform an exact computation of the “fermionic force” or use pseudo fermions as part of the HMC algorithm. The former algorithm is slower than the latter but has the advantage that one can work with any real number for the fermion flavor. Some results using both algorithms will be presented.
