Instanton dominance of topological charge fluctuations in QCD?
We consider the local chirality of near-zero eigenvectors from Wilson-Dirac
and clover improved Wilson-Dirac lattice operators as proposed recently by
Horv\'ath et al. We studied finer lattices and repaired for the loss of
orthogonality due to the non-normality of the Wilson-Dirac matrix. As a result
we do see a clear double peak structure on lattices with resolutions higher
than 0.1 fm. We found that the lattice artifacts can be considerably reduced by
exploiting the biorthogonal system of left and right eigenvectors. We conclude
that the dominance of instantons on topological charge fluctuations is not
ruled out by local chirality measurements.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figure
Low-Dimensional Long-Range Topological Charge Structure in the QCD Vacuum
While sign-coherent 4-dimensional structures cannot dominate topological
charge fluctuations in the QCD vacuum at all scales due to reflection
positivity, it is possible that enhanced coherence exists over extended
space-time regions of lower dimension. Using the overlap Dirac operator to
calculate topological charge density, we present evidence for such structure in
pure-glue SU(3) lattice gauge theory. It is found that a typical equilibrium
configuration is dominated by two oppositely-charged sign-coherent connected
structures (``sheets'') covering about 80% of space-time. Each sheet is built
from elementary 3-d cubes connected through 2-d faces, and approximates a
low-dimensional curved manifold (or possibly a fractal structure) embedded in
the 4-d space. At the heart of the sheet is a ``skeleton'' formed by about 18%
of the most intense space-time points organized into a global long-range
structure, involving connected parts spreading over maximal possible distances.
We find that the skeleton is locally 1-dimensional and propose that its
geometrical properties might be relevant for understanding the possible role of
topological charge fluctuations in the physics of chiral symmetry breaking.Comment: 4 pages RevTeX, 4 figures; v2: 6 pages, 5 figures, more explanations

Differenciált munkaformák. A műhelyfoglalkozás indoka és tapasztalatai
Az Ărás egyfelĹ‘l indoklását adja, hogy miĂ©rt van szĂĽksĂ©g a felsĹ‘oktatásban olyan műhelyfoglalkozásokra, amelyek a differenciálást, a tevĂ©kenysĂ©gcentrikus Ă©s Ă©lmĂ©nyszerű munkaformák alkalmazását segĂtik az oktatĂłk körĂ©ben.

Topological Charge Membranes in 2D and 4D Gauge Theory
Local topological charge structure in the 2D CP(N-1) sigma models is studied
using the overlap Dirac operator. Long-range coherence of topological charge
along locally 1D regions in 2D space-time is observed. We discuss the
connection between these results and the recent discovery of coherent 3D sheets
of topological charge in 4D QCD. In both cases, coherent regions of topological
charge form along surfaces of approximmate codimension 1.Comment: Lattice2004(topology
Topological Structure of the QCD Vacuum Revealed by Overlap Fermions
Overlap fermions preserve a remnant of chiral symmetry on the lattice. They
are a powerful tool to investigate the topological structure of the vacuum of
Yang-Mills theory and full QCD. Recent results concerning the localization of
topological charge and the localization and local chirality of the overlap
eigenmodes are reported. The charge distribution is radically different, if a
spectral cut-off for the Dirac eigenmodes is applied. The density q(x) is
changing from the scale-a charge density (with full lattice resolution) to the
ultraviolet filtered charge density. The scale-a density, computed on the Linux
cluster of LRZ, has a singular, sign-coherent global structure of co-dimension
1 first described by the Kentucky group. We stress, however, the cluster
properties of the UV filtered topological density resembling the instanton
picture. The spectral cut-off can be mapped to a bosonic smearing procedure.
The UV filtered field strength reveals a high degree of (anti)selfduality at
"hot spots" of the action. The fermionic eigenmodes show a high degree of local
chirality. The lowest modes are seen to be localized in low-dimensional
space-time regions.Comment: 13 pages, 11 figures, accepted to appear in the Proceedings of "HLRB,
