5-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory with Z2 orbifolding and its phase structure

In an SU(2) lattice gauge theory with a Z2 orbifolded extra dimension, the new symmetry which is called as a stick symmetry is useful in understanding the bulk transition. We discuss the relation with the Fradkin-Shenker's phase diagram as well. A remnant of the extra dimension is remained as two U(1) gauge symmetries in two 4-dimensional spaces. We also consider more general bulk gauge groups beyond SU(2).

Genuine Symmetry of Staggered Fermion

We present a new formulation of the staggered fermion on the D-dimensional lattice based on the SO(2D) Clifford algebra, which is naturally present in the action. The action of the massless staggered fermion is invariant under the discrete rotation and the SO(2D) chiral and other discrete transformations. From transformation properties of the fermion, we find two local meson operators (one scalar and one pseudoscalar) in addition to two standard meson operators.

Five-dimensional Lattice Gauge Theory as Multi-Layer World

A five-dimensional lattice space can be decomposed into a number of four-dimens ional lattices called as layers. The five-dimensional gauge theory on the lattice can be interpreted as four-dimensional gauge theories on the multi-layer with interactions between neighboring layers. In the theory, there exist two independent coupling constants; $β_4$ controls the dynamics inside a layer and $β_5$ does the strength of the inter-layer interaction.We propose the new possibility to realize the continuum limit of a five-dimensional theory using four-dimensional dynamics with large $β_4$ and small $β_5$. Our result is also related to the higher dimensional theory by deconstruction approach.

A Study on the Non-perturbative Existence of Yang-Mills Theories with Large Extra Dimensions

Pure lattice SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in five dimensions is considered, where an extra dimension is compactified on a circle. Monte-Carlo simulations indicate that the theory possesses a continuum limit with a non-vanishing string tension if the compactification radius is smaller than a certain value $R_M$ which is $O(1/10)$ of the inverse of the square root of the string tension. We verify non-perturbatively the power-law running of gauge coupling constant. Our method can be applied to the investigation of continuum limits in other higher-dimensional gauge theories.
