High Energy Physics - Lattice

The pion light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) is a central non-perturbative object of interest for the calculation of high-energy exclusive processes in quantum chromodynamics. This article describes the progress in the lattice QCD…

We perform a non-perturbative lattice calculation of the decay rates for inclusive semi-leptonic decays of charmed mesons. In view of the long-standing tension in the determination of the CKM matrix elements $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ from…

Resonances play an important role in Standard Model phenomenology. In particular, hadronic resonances feature in $B$ and $D$ decays, which can be central for New Physics searches. Lattice QCD simulations combined with the finite-volume…

Recently, an approximate $SU(4)$ chiral spin-flavour symmetry was observed in multiplet patterns of QCD meson correlation functions, in a temperature range above the chiral crossover. This symmetry is larger than the chiral symmetry of…

Implementations of measurement kernels in high-level Lattice QCD frameworks enable rapid prototyping, but can leave hardware capabilities significantly underutilized. This is an acceptable tradeoff if the time spent in unoptimized routines…

Normalizing flows are generative machine learning models which can efficiently approximate probability distributions, using only given samples of a distribution. This architecture is used to interpolate the chiral condensate obtained from…

Pad\'e approximants are employed in order to study the analytic structure of the four-dimensional SU(2) Landau-gauge gluon and ghost propagators in the infrared regime. The approximants, which are model independent, are used as fitting…

Nucleon isovector form factors calculated on a 2+1-flavor domain-wall-fermions ensemble with strange and degenerate up and down quarks at physical mass and lattice cut off, $a^{-1}$, of about 1.730(4) GeV, are reported. The ensemble was…

We refine our previous study of a $u d \bar{b} \bar{b}$ tetraquark resonance with quantum numbers $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$, which is based on antiheavy-antiheavy lattice QCD potentials, by including heavy quark spin effects via the mass…

Integrated time-slice correlation functions $G(t)$ with weights $K(t)$ appear, e.g., in the moments method to determine $\alpha_s$ from heavy quark correlators, in the muon g-2 determination or in the determination of smoothed spectral…

We study one-dimensional QCD at finite quark density by using the sign optimization framework. The fermion sign problem is mitigated by deforming the path integral domain, $SU(3)$ to a complexified one ${\cal M} \subset SL(3)$, explicitly…

We present results for the scalar and tensor isovector-couplings ($g_S$ and $g_T$) of the nucleon measured at the physical point ($M_{\pi}=135$ MeV) with a single lattice spacing of $0.085\ \mathrm{fm}$ in 2+1 flavor QCD. Our calculations…

We study Yang-Mills lattice theories with $Sp(N_c)$ gauge group, with $N_c=2N$, for $N=1,\,\cdots,\,4$. We show that if we divide the renormalised couplings appearing in the Wilson flow by the quadratic Casimir $C_2(F)$ of the $Sp(N_c)$…

We address the non-perturbative calculation of the decay rate of inclusive semi-leptonic $B_{(s)}$ mesons decays from lattice QCD. Precise theoretical Standard Model predictions are key ingredients in searches for new physics. This type of…

As a fully computational discipline, Lattice Field Theory has the potential to give results that anyone with sufficient computational resources can reproduce, going from input parameters to published numbers and plots correct to the last…

In lattice QCD, the trace of the inverse of the discretized Dirac operator appears in the disconnected fermion loop contribution to an observable. As simulation methods get more and more precise, these contributions become increasingly…

Worldline representations were established as a powerful tool for studying bosonic lattice field theories at finite density. For fermions, however, the worldlines still may carry signs that originate from the Dirac algebra and from the…

Following a ground-breaking proposal by Ji~\cite{PhysRevLett.110.262002}, numerical simulations of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) on a Euclidean lattice have provided new, valuable information on the structure of hadrons. In this talk, we…

The charge-$q$ Schwinger model is the $(1+1)$-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED) with a charge-$q$ Dirac fermion. It has the $\mathbb{Z}_q$ $1$-form symmetry and also enjoys the $\mathbb{Z}_q$ chiral symmetry in the chiral limit, and…

We give an explicit proof for the locality of staggered overlap operators. The proof covers the original two flavor construction by Adams as well as a single flavor version. As in the case of Neuberger's operator, an admissibility condition…
