Comparative study of topological charge

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

Comparative study of topological charge is performed. Topological charges are measured by a cloverleaf operator on smoothed gauge configurations. Various types of smoothing techniques are employed. Agreement of topological charges in fermionic and gluonic definitions is examined. High consistency is observed between topological charges obtained by improved smoothing methods and those by the index theorem with the overlap-Dirac operator.
