Does lattice gauge theory have anything (perhaps a lot!) nontrivial to do with spin foams in QG? Is the spin foam approach to QG a lattice gauge theory? Thank-you! (Wed, June 8th, 2005). :-)
OK, I really suggest merging Lattice field theory and this one in some sensible way, then perhaps renaming the whole "lattice field theory" as that is more generic. Otherwise you don't know what to link to from other articles. If, however, there really is something more specific to "lattice gauge theories" that cannot be covered in the main article, then a new article can be started. But I am really doubtful; the distinction between "lattice theories with pure gauge actions" and "lattice theories with fermions/particles in it" doesn't seem to warrant having separate articles, which would largely anyway just repeat each other. 131.111.8.96 22:39, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
The statement that fermions are "only defined at the elements of the lattice" is misleading and incorrect. In the naive wilson action this is true, and as a result fermion doubling is a huge problem. So some solutions are to split the fermions amongst many links, which can reduce the doubling. Another solution is to introduce a 5th dimension, along with a dilaton field with an unusual action that tends to cause the two chiralities of the fermion to split. that is stuck on the either 4D side of the 5D cube is a chirality of the fermion. This technique is called domain wall fermions. And there are many others. Is anyone working on this article involved in Lattice QCD?
