Fermionic correlation functions from the staggered Schrodinger functional


Abstract in English

We consider the Schrodinger functional with staggered one-component fermions on a fine lattice of size $(L/a)^3 times (T/a)$ where $T/a$ must be an odd number. In order to reconstruct the four-component spinors, two different set-ups are proposed, corresponding to the coarse lattice having size $(L/2a)^3 times (T/2a)$, with $T = T pm a$. The continuum limit is then defined at fixed $T/L$. Both cases have previously been investigated in the pure gauge theory. Here we define fermionic correlation functions and study their approach to the continuum limit at tree-level of perturbation theory.
