Fermion correlation function in multiple field configurations
Description
A simple quantum-mechanical example is used to analyze the effect of field configuration copying on a fermion correlation function. It is shown that the copying procedure may result in a large correction to the fermion effective mass except for short-time correlations in the low-temperature regime. This correction possibly explains the oscillatory behavior of meson effective masses in a recent lattice QCD calculation
