New approach to lattice QCD at finite density; results for the critical end point on coarse lattices

Abstract: All approaches currently used to study finite baryon density lattice QCD suffer from uncontrolled systematic uncertainties in addition to the well-known sign problem. We formulate and test an algorithm, sign reweighting, that works directly at finite µ = µ B /3 and is yet free from any such uncontrolled systematics. With this algorithm the only problem is the sign problem itself. This approach involves the generation of configurations with the positive fermionic weight |Re det D(µ)| where D(µ) is the Dirac mat… Show more

“…It has then been proposed to redefine the rooted staggered determinant by a geometric matching procedure averaging over the quartets, after which it can be represented as an ordinary polynomial [99]. A further development [101] concerns the reweighting procedure, which usually is based on sampling with the phase quenched determinant and reweighting in the phase factor. This has a well-known overlap problem between the sampled and reweighted ensembles.…”

“…At finite baryon density lattice QCD faces a sign problem, due to the introduction of a real chemical potential that makes the action complex. Although new techniques that allow to directly simulate the theory at finite chemical potential exist [3,4], they cannot be applied to large scale QCD simulations yet.…”

“…Despite these issues, efforts have been undertaken to extract nonperturbative inputs [29] -e.g. parton distrubtion functions (PDFs) [33][34][35][36][37][38], phase diagrams [39][40][41][42], transport coefficients [43][44][45][46][47][48] -for the models from lattice QCD, albeit with large uncertainties.…”
