Polyakov loop renormalization with gradient flow
Polyakov loop renormalization with gradient flow
We propose to use the gradient flow for the renormalization of Polyakov loops in various representations.We study Polyakov loops in 2 + 1 flavor QCD using the HISQ action and lattices with temporal extents N τ =6, 8, 10 and 12 in various representations, including fundamental, sextet, adjoint, decuplet, 15-plet …
