Lattice seminar

Holography from lattice N=4 super Yang-Mills (3/12)

Goksu Can Toga (Syracuse University)

In this talk we use lattice simulation to study four-dimensional N = 4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. We have focused on the two and three color theory on lattices of size 12^4 and for ’t Hooft couplings up to λ = 40.0. Our lattice action is based on a discretization of the Marcus or GL twist of N = 4 SYM and retains one exact supersymmetry for non-zero lattice spacing. We show that lattice theory exists in a single non-Abelian Coulomb phase for all ’t Hooft coupling. Furthermore the Wilson loops and static potential we obtain from correlators of Polyakov lines is in good agreement with that obtained from holography — specifically the potential obtained from Polyakov line correlators has a Coulombic form with a coefficient that varies as the square root of the ’t Hooft coupling.
