Description

Rough gauge fields are an obstacle in large-scale dynamical fermion simulations with Wilson quarks when the pion mass is lowered and the gap of the lattice Dirac operator shrinks. In this talk, a reformulation of the O(a) improved Wilson-Dirac operator is given which is largely protected from numerical instabilities during the molecular dynamics evolution. First results are very promising as physical-point simulations in three-flavour QCD at lattice spacings as large as 0.095 fm become feasible. The implementation comes without additional cost and is a crucial ingredient towards master-field simulations with fermions.
