Theoretical issues with staggered fermion simulations

Abstract

The legality of the "rooting trick" in dynamical staggered fermion simulations is discussed, i.e. whether the theory with the Boltzmann weight 1/4(Dst) yields the right continuum limit. Since the problem is unsolved, pieces of evidence in favor and against are collected and examined.
