| dc.description | We extend the dual algorithm recently described for pure, non-abelian Yang-Mills on the lattice to the case of lattice fermions coupled to Yang-Mills, by constructing an ergodic Metropolis algorithm for dynamic fermions that is local, exact, and built from gauge-invariant boson-fermion coupled configurations. For concreteness, we present in detail the case of three dimensions, for the group SU(2) and staggered fermions, however the algorithm readily generalizes with regard to group and dimension. The treatment of the fermion determinant makes use of a polymer expansion; as with previous proposals making use of the polymer expansion in higher than two dimensions, the critical question for practical applications is whether the presence of negative amplitudes can be managed in the continuum limit. | |
