摘要: Abstract We study characteristic features of the eigenvalues Wilson-Dirac operator in topologically non-trivial gauge field configurations by examining complete spectra fermion matrix. In particular we discuss role eigenvectors with real as lattice equivalents continuum zero-modes. demonstrate that those properties spectrum which correspond to topology are stable under adding fluctuations fields. The behavior a fully quantized theory is discussed using QED2 an example.
