Self-dual U(1) lattice field theory with a θ-term

Abstract We study U(1) gauge theories with a modified Villain action. Such theories can naturally be coupled to electric and magnetic matter, and display exact electric-magnetic duality. In their simplest formulation without a θ-term, such theories are ultra-local. We extend the discussion to U(1) g...
