Three phases in the three-dimensional Abelian-Higgs model with nonlocal gauge interactions
We study the phase structure of the three-dimensional (3D) nonlocal compact U(1) lattice gauge theory coupled with a Higgs field by Monte Carlo simulations. The nonlocal interactions among gauge variables are along the temporal direction and mimic the effect of local coupling to massless particles. In contrast to the 3D …
