Finite-Temperature Phase Structure of Lattice QCD with the Wilson Quark Action for Two and Four Flavors
We present further analyses of the finite-temperature phase structure of
lattice QCD with the Wilson quark action based on spontaneous breakdown of
parity-flavor symmetry. Results are reported on (i) an explicit demonstration
of spontaneous breakdown of parity-flavor symmetry beyond the critical line,
(ii) phase structure and order of chiral transition for the case of
flavors, and (iii) approach toward the continuum limit.Comment: Poster presented at LATTICE96(finite temperature); 4 pages, Latex,

Two-dimensional Gross-Neveu Model with Wilson Fermion Action at Finite Temperature and Density
We analytically investigate the 2-dimensional Gross-Neveu model at finite
temperature and density using Wilson fermion action. The relation between the
phase structure on the lattice and that in the continuum is clarified.Comment: LATTICE98(hightemp), 3 pages, 3 eps figure
Manifestation of spin degrees of freedom in the double fractional quantum Hall system
The double fractional quantum Hall system of spin 1/2 electrons is
numerically studied to predict that there exists a novel spin-unpolarized
quantum liquid specific to the multi-species system, which exemplifies a link
between the spin state and the inter-layer electron correlation. Even when the
ground state is spin-polarized, the lowest charge-excitation mode involves the
spin when the interlayer tunneling is considered.Comment: typeset in LATEX, 2 figures available upon request at

Nucleon-nucleon interactions via Lattice QCD: Methodology --HAL QCD approach to extract hadronic interactions in lattice QCD--
We review the potential method in lattice QCD, which has recently been
proposed to extract nucleon-nucleon interactions via numerical simulations. We
focus on the methodology of this approach by emphasizing the strategy of the
potential method, the theoretical foundation behind it, and special numerical
techniques. We compare the potential method with the standard finite volume
method in lattice QCD, in order to make pros and cons of the approach clear. We
also present several numerical results for the nucleon-nucleon potentials.Comment: 12 pages, 10 figure
Spontaneous Flavor and Parity Breaking with Wilson Fermions
We discuss the phase diagram of Wilson fermions in the -- plane for
two-flavor QCD. We argue that, as originally suggested by Aoki, there is a
phase in which flavor and parity are spontaneously broken. Recent numerical
results on the spectrum of the overlap Hamiltonian have been interpreted as
evidence against Aoki's conjecture. We show that they are in fact consistent
with the presence of a flavor-parity broken ``Aoki phase''. We also show how,
as the continuum limit is approached, one can study the lattice theory using
the continuum chiral Lagrangian supplemented by additional terms proportional
to powers of the lattice spacing. We find that there are two possible phase
structures at non-zero lattice spacing: (1) there is an Aoki phase of width
with two massless Goldstone pions; (2) there is no
symmetry breaking, and all three pions have an equal non-vanishing mass of
order . Present numerical evidence suggests that the former option is
realized for Wilson fermions. Our analysis then predicts the form of the pion
masses and the flavor-parity breaking condensate within the Aoki phase. Our
analysis also applies for non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermions.Comment: 22 pages, LaTeX, 5 figures (added several references and a comment
One loop renormalization for the axial Ward-Takahashi identity in Domain-wall QCD
We calculate one-loop correction to the axial Ward-Takahashi identity given
by Furman and Shamir in domain-wall QCD. It is shown perturbatively that the
renormalized axial Ward-Takahashi identity is satisfied without fine tuning and
the ``conserved'' axial current receives no renormalization, giving .
This fact will simplify the calculation of the pion decay constant in numerical
simulations since the decay constant defined by this current needs no lattice
renormalization factor.Comment: 16 pages, 3 axodraw.sty figure
Two-dimensional Lattice Gross-Neveu Model with Wilson Fermion Action at Finite Temperature and Chemical Potential
We investigate the phase structure of the two-dimensional lattice Gross-Neveu
model formulated with the Wilson fermion action to leading order of 1/N
expansion. Structural change of the parity-broken phase under the influence of
finite temperature and chemical potential is studied. The connection between
the lattice phase structure and the chiral phase transition of the continuum
theory is clarified.Comment: 42 pages, 20 EPS figures, using REVTe
Domain Wall Fermions in Quenched Lattice QCD
We study the chiral properties and the validity of perturbation theory for
domain wall fermions in quenched lattice QCD at beta=6.0. The explicit chiral
symmetry breaking term in the axial Ward-Takahashi identity is found to be very
small already at Ns=10, where Ns is the size of the fifth dimension, and its
behavior seems consistent with an exponential decay in Ns within the limited
range of Ns we explore. From the fact that the critical quark mass, at which
the pion mass vanishes as in the case of the ordinary Wilson-type fermion,
exists at finite Ns, we point out that this may be a signal of the parity
broken phase and investigate the possible existence of such a phase in this
model at finite Ns. The rho and pi meson decay constants obtained from the
four-dimensional local currents with the one-loop renormalization factor show a
good agreement with those obtained from the conserved currents
