New data at finer lattice spacing and our previously introduced method, the infinitesimal $beta$-function, strengthen the case that the $N_f = 12$ model has no infrared fixed point up to $g^2 = 7.2$. We show how underestimated cutoff dependence in one domain wall study for $N_f = 10$ has been corrected, which is now consistent with staggered results showing a monotonically increasing $beta$-function. A consistent theme is that too small volumes can lead to apparent fixed points which vanish towards the continuum limit. We also apply the infinitesimal $beta$-function method to the $N_f = 10$ model, finding consistent behavior with the finite-step $beta$-function. Ongoing simulations and analysis for the sextet model confirm our previous results from weak to strong coupling with a non-zero $beta$-function throughout, in quantitative difference to Wilson fermion simulations~cite{Hasenfratz:2015ssa}.","PeriodicalId":147987,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 37th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory — PoS(LATTICE2019)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122445470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that the large scale geometry of the extended configuration space is given by an asymptotically anti-de Sitter metric, and argue in a simple, geometrical way that the tempering parameter should be best placed exponentially to acquire high acceptance rates for transitions in the extra dimension. We also discuss the geometrical optimization of the tempered Lefschetz thimble method, which is an algorithm towards solving the numerical sign problem.","PeriodicalId":147987,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 37th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory — PoS(LATTICE2019)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122315013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compare two implementations with the CPU-only version and the GPU version of the FFT based convolution algorithm, and find a factor 9 improvement on the computational speed of the NSPT algorithm with SU($N=225$) at $O(g^{31})$. The perturbation order dependence of the computational time, we investigate it up to $O(g^{63})$, shows a mild scaling behavior on the truncation order.","PeriodicalId":147987,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 37th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory — PoS(LATTICE2019)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130738040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2017, we showed that the same integer as the APS index can be obtained from the $eta$ invariant of the domain-wall Dirac operator. Recently we gave a mathematical proof that the equivalence is not a coincidence but generally true.
