Comment on "'t Hooft vertices, partial quenching, and rooted staggered QCD"
Michael Creutz
TL;DR
This paper defends the validity of the rooting procedure in staggered fermions, countering recent criticisms and reaffirming the proof of its failure.
Contribution
It provides a rebuttal to recent criticisms, clarifying the correctness of the original proof regarding the rooting procedure in lattice QCD.
Findings
Criticism of the proof is shown to be incorrect
Reaffirms the failure of the rooting procedure in certain contexts
Supports the validity of the original proof
Abstract
A recent criticism of the proof of the failure of the rooting procedure with staggered fermions is shown to be incorrect.
