We report on a lattice simulation result for four-dimensional {cal N}=1 SU(2) super Yang-Mills theory with the dynamical overlap gluino. We study the spectrum of the overlap Dirac operator at three different gluino masses m=0.2, 0.1 and 0.05 with the Iwasaki action on a 8^3 times 16 lattice. We find that the lowest eigenvalue distributions are in good agreement with the prediction from the random matrix theory. Moreover the mass dependence of the condensate is almost constant, which gives a clean chiral limit. Our results for the gluino condensate in the chiral limit is < bar{psi} psi > r_0^3 = 0.63(12), where r_0 is the Sommer scale.

Twisted and orbifold formulations of lattice ${cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory which possess an exact supersymmetry require a $U(N)=SU(N)otimes U(1)$ gauge group. In the naive continuum limit, the $U(1)$ modes trivially decouple and play no role in the theory. However, at non-zero lattice spacing they couple to the $SU(N)$ modes and can drive instabilities in the lattice theory. For example, it is well known that the lattice $U(1)$ theory undergoes a phase transition at strong coupling to a chirally broken phase. An improved action that suppresses the fluctuations in the $U(1)$ sector was proposed in arXiv:1505.03135 . Here, we explore a more aggressive approach to the problem by adding a term to the action which can entirely suppress the $U(1)$ mode. The penalty is that the new term breaks the $mathcal{Q}$-exact lattice supersymmetry. However, we argue that the term is $1/N^2$ suppressed and the existence of a supersymmetric fixed point in the planar limit ensures that any SUSY-violating terms induced in the action possess couplings that also vanish in this limit. We present numerical results on supersymmetric Ward identities consistent with this conclusion.
We study four dimensional large-N SU(N) Yang-Mills theory coupled to adjoint overlap fermions on a single site lattice. Lattice simulations along with perturbation theory show that the bare quark mass has to be taken to zero as one takes the continuum limit in order to be in the physically relevant center-symmetric phase. But, it seems that it is possible to take the continuum limit with any renormalized quark mass and still be in the center-symmetric physics. We have also conducted a study of the correlations between Polyakov loop operators in different directions and obtained the range for the Wilson mass parameter that enters the overlap Dirac operator.
We report on the results of a numerical simulation concerning the low-lying spectrum of four-dimensional N=1 SU(2) Supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory on the lattice with light dynamical gluinos. In the gauge sector the tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action is used, while we use the Wilson formulation in the fermion sector with stout smearing of the gauge links in the Wilson-Dirac operator. The ensembles of gauge configurations were produced with the Two-Step Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (TS-PHMC) updating algorithm. We performed simulations on large lattices up to a size of 24^3 x 48 at $beta=1.6$. Using QCD units with the Sommer scale being set to r_0 = 0.5 fm, the lattice spacing is about a ~ 0.09 fm, and the spatial extent of the lattice corresponds to 2.1 fm. At the lightest simulated gluino mass the spin-1/2 gluino-glue bound state appeared to be considerably heavier than its expected super-partner, the pseudoscalar bound state. Whether supermultiplets are formed remains to be studied in upcoming simulations.
We study event shapes in N=4 SYM describing the angular distribution of energy and R-charge in the final states created by the simplest half-BPS scalar operator. Applying the approach developed in the companion paper arXiv:1309.0769, we compute these observables using the correlation functions of certain components of the N=4 stress-tensor supermultiplet: the half-BPS operator itself, the R-symmetry current and the stress tensor. We present master formulas for the all-order event shapes as convolutions of the Mellin amplitude defining the correlation function of the half-BPS operators, with a coupling-independent kernel determined by the choice of the observable. We find remarkably simple relations between various event shapes following from N=4 superconformal symmetry. We perform thorough checks at leading order in the weak coupling expansion and show perfect agreement with the conventional calculations based on amplitude techniques. We extend our results to strong coupling using the correlation function of half-BPS operators obtained from the AdS/CFT correspondence.
The lattice provides a powerful tool to non-perturbatively investigate strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theories. The pure SU(2) SYM theory with one supercharge is simulated on large lattices with small Majorana gluino masses down to about $am_{tilde g}=0.068$ with lattice spacing $asimeq 0.125$ fm. The gluino dynamics is simulated by the Two-Step Multi-Boson (TSMB) and the Two-Step Polynomial Hybrid Monte Carlo (TS-PHMC) algorithms. Supersymmetry (SUSY) is broken explicitly by the lattice and the Wilson term and softly by the presence of a non-vanishing gluino mass. However, the recovery of SUSY is expected in the infinite volume continuum limit by tuning the bare parameters to the SUSY point in the parameter space. This scenario is studied by the determination of the low-energy mass spectrum and by means of lattice SUSY Ward-Identities (WIs).
