Description

We describe a new method to determine in a stochastic fashion the Dirac operator spectral density over the entire range of eigenvalues. This allows for example studies of the chiral limit of the fermion condensate, the mode number and the anomalous mass dimension. We apply this technique to the 2-flavor sextet SU(3) gauge theory, to investigate this theory's viability as a minimal realization of the composite Higgs scenario.
