Abstract

In the absence of interaction, it is well known that the Kogut-Susskind regularizations of fermions in the spin and flavor basis are equivalent to each other. In this paper, we clarify the difference between the two formulations in the presence of interaction with gauge fields. We then derive an explicit expression of the transfer matrix in the spin basis by a unitary transformation on that one in the flavor basis which is known. The essential key ingredient is the explicit construction of the fermion Fock space for variables which live on blocks. Therefore, the transfer matrix generates time translations of two lattice units.
