Shameless Baylor Advertisement • Baylor’s Physics Department – 15 research-active faculty. Rank #18 in the percentage of faculty whose works are cited and #16 in dollars per research grant. • Faculty Scholarly Productivity from Academic Analytics is #71 (out of 177 programs) in the country. • Have active experimental research programs at FermiLab (CDF) and the LHC (CMS). • Ask me for a recruitment packet!
Disconnected Diagrams and Lattice QCD • What is Lattice QCD? • Taming disconnected diagrams Collaborators: Victor Guerrero and Ron Morgan
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)--- the fundamental theory of the strong interaction (quarks and gluons) Aspects of lattice QCD • 2 "Actions" - gluon and quark. • Does the "path integral" automatically via Monte Carlo simulation. • Degrees of freedom are the points in space, colors, spin and particle/anti-particle. • Lattice scale "a" set by renormalization group behavior. • Quark propagators are matrix inverses of the "mass matrix".
Deflation and noise subtraction methods
The HARD problem: quark loop Ugly gluon lines destruction creation
Deflation basics Krylov subspace: Starting, residual vectors: q is poly of degree m or less that has value 1 at 0.
Matrix: bidiagonal, diagonal is 0.1, 1, 2, 3, …1999, superdiagonal is all 1’sGMRES polynomial of degree 10
Residual norm curve Matrix vector products
NonHermitian deflation 2+1 CP-PACS 163 x 32 lattice, kappa=0.13980.
Hermitian deflation: CG vs. D-CG (M+M) Getting M from M+M; 203 x 32 lattice, 1st rhs: Lan-DR(200,k).
Hermitian deflation: CG vs. D-CG (5 M) Getting M from 5M; same 203 x 32 lattice
Hermitian deflation: Minres vs. D-Minres (5 M) Using5 M to get M using D-Minres; same 203 x 32 lattice
Subtraction basics • Noise matrices: • Variance: • Z(N) ( ) noise:
Perturbative subtraction (PS) (Q = M-1): Should work best for small (large quark mass). • Eigenspectrum (ES) subtraction: Should work best for large(small quark mass). • Can also combine PS and ES methods
Eigenspectrum Subtraction (30x30 matrix) Noises ES=eigenspectrum subtraction, PE=perturbative subtraction, DS=direct sum (no subtraction).

Summary • Deflation is a important new method in Lattice studies, which will become more important for smaller quark masses. Effective in a Hermitian or non-Hermitian context. • Eigenspectrum subtraction is helpful for disconnected diagrams at small quark masses. Extension to Fortran (larger lattices) is almost finished. • Thanks to Ron Morgan and Victor Guerrero for their invaluable contributions!
