Staggered chiral random matrix theory

Understand

We present a random matrix theory (RMT) for the staggered lattice QCD Dirac operator.

• The staggered RMT is equivalent to the zero-momentum limit of the staggered chiral Lagrangian and includes all taste breaking terms at their leading order.
• This is an extension of previous work which only included some of the taste breaking terms.
• We will also present some results for the taste breaking contributions to the partition function and the Dirac eigenvalues.
