Quantum Chaos in Compact Lattice QED
B. A. Berg, H. Markum, R. Pullirsch
Abstract
Complete eigenvalue spectra of the staggered Dirac operator in quenched 4d compact QED are studied on 83 × 4 and 83 × 6 lattices. We investigate the behavior of the nearest-neighbor spacing distribution P(s) as a measure of the fluctuation properties of the eigenvalues in the strong coupling and the Coulomb phase. In both phases we find agreement with the Wigner surmise of the unitary ensemble of random-matrix theory indicating quantum chaos. Combining this with previous results on QCD, we conjecture that quite generally the non-linear couplings of quantum field theories lead to a chaotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator.
