Scaling topological charge in the CP^3 model using a fixed point action

We define a fixed point action in two-dimensional lattice CP^{N-1} models. The fixed point action is a classical perfect lattice action, which is expected to show strongly reduced cut-off effects in numerical simulations. Furthermore, the action has scale invariant instanton solutions, which enables us to define a topological charge without topological defects. We present results for the scaling of the topological suceptibility from a Monte Carlo simulation in the CP^3 model.

Fixed Point Action and Topology in the CP^3 Model

We define a fixed point action in two-dimensional lattice ${\rm CP}^{N-1}$ models. The fixed point action is a classical perfect lattice action, which is expected to show strongly reduced cutoff effects in numerical simulations. Furthermore, the action has scale-invariant instanton solutions, which enables us to define a correct topological charge without topological defects. Using a parametrization of the fixed point action for the ${\rm CP}^{3}$ model in a Monte Carlo simulation, we study the topological susceptibility.

Instantons and the fixed point topological charge in the two-dimensional O(3) sigma-model

We define a fixed point topological charge for the two-dimensional O(3) lattice sigma-model which is free of topological defects. We use this operator in combination with the fixed point action to measure the topological susceptibility for a wide range of correlation lengths. The results strongly suggest that it is not a physical quantity in this model. The procedure, however, can be applied to other asymptotically free theories as well.
