Jan Smit (born 16 September 1943, Amsterdam) is a Dutch theoretical physicist. During his PhD at UCLA with professor Robert Finkelstein he made some early contributions to lattice formulation of quantum field theory around 1972, which was a year before Kenneth Wilson, and two years before Alexander Polyakov. However, he encountered some problems with fermion doubling which he could not solve at the moment. At that time he did not realize the value of his work and he only mentioned it briefly in his Ph.D. thesis in 1974, which was about Schwinger source theory. A few years later he returned to working on the lattice formulation and became a well-known expert in the field.

  • Jan Smit is een Nederlands hoogleraar theoretische natuurkunde aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam en de Rijksuniversiteit Utrecht. Hij promoveerde bij professor aan de UCLA op de bronnentheorie van Julian Schwinger maar is vooral bekend voor zijn studie naar de kwantumveldentheorie, waarbij hij de anomalieën die deze theorie plagen aanpakte door de ruimte-tijd (space-time continuum) te vervangen door een eindig raster. Dit werk culmineerde in de publicatie van zijn boek Introduction to Quantum Fields on a Lattice in 2002. (nl)
