MEM study of true flattening of free energy and the θ term
Abstract
We study the sign problem in lattice field theory with a θ term, which reveals as flattening phenomenon of the free energy density f(θ). We report the result of the MEM analysis, where such mock data are used that `true' flattening of f(θ) occurs. This is regarded as a simple model for studying whether the MEM could correctly detect non trivial phase structure in θ space. We discuss how the MEM distinguishes fictitious and true flattening.
