Quantum chaos in compact lattice QED

Abstract: Complete eigenvalue spectra of the staggered Dirac operator in quenched 4D compact QED are studied on 8 3 ϫ4 and 8 3 ϫ6 lattices. We investigate the behavior of the nearest-neighbor spacing distribution P(s) as a measure of the fluctuation properties of the eigenvalues in the strong coupling and the Coulomb phase. In both phases we find agreement with the Wigner surmise of the unitary ensemble of random-matrix theory indicating quantum chaos. Combining this with previous results on QCD, we conjecture that quit… Show more

“…In particular, this has been confirmed by the analysis of the low-energy effective theory [4,5,6,7], universality studies [8,9,10,11,12], lattice QCD simulations [13,4,14,15,17,18,16,19,20,21,22] and the study two-sublattice theories with disorder [23,24,25,26]. This means that the dynamical details of QCD are not important on energy scales of the order of the average level spacing.…”

“…Spectral correlations have been studied in great detail for both lattice QCD simulations [4,14,15,19,17,20,21] and instanton-liquid simulations [5] (see [2] for a recent review). In lattice QCD they were studied by means of the disconnected scalar susceptibility [22], and complete agreement with partially quenched chiral perturbation theory was found.…”

“…The properties of the Dirac spectrum have been analyzed in many lattice QCD simulations [ 33,3,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48] [ 49,50,51,52,53,54] and have been found to be in complete agreement with the conclusions of the previous section. We only show three representative examples.…”

“…The agreement extends on both sides of the confinement-deconfinement phase transition [23,36]. However, to the authors' knowledge there is no analytical prediction from chRMT for the level spacing distribution when focusing on the soft edge or at T c .…”
