Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Norikazu Yamada, Masahito Yamazaki, Ryuichiro Kitano, , | Summary: We apply the previously-developed sub-volume method to study the $theta$-dependence of the four-dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. We calculate the first two coefficients, the topological susceptibility $chi$ and the fourth cumulant $b_2$, in the $theta$-expansion of the free energy […]
