The computational cost required to calculate nuclear correlation functions grows factorially in the number of quarks, making the study of large nuclei inaccessible to ab initio study using lattice QCD at the present time. However, the…
We present a preliminary non-perturbative lattice calculation of the form factors entering the processes $K\to \ell\,\nu_\ell\,\ell'^+\,\ell'^-$ and of the corresponding branching ratios. These form factors describe the interaction between…
We present Lyncs-API, a Python API for Lattice QCD applications currently under development. Lyncs aims to bring several widely used libraries for Lattice QCD under a common framework. Lyncs flexibly links to libraries for CPUs and GPUs in…
At physical light quark masses, efficient linear solvers are crucial for carrying out the millions of inversions of the Dirac matrix required for obtaining high statistics in quark correlation functions. Adaptive algebraic multi-grid…
We investigate the state-of-the-art Lanczos eigensolvers available in the Grid and QUDA libraries. They include Implicitly Restarted Lanczos, Thick-Restart Lanczos, and Block Lanczos. We measure and analyze their performance for the Highly…
We study good, bad and not-even-bad diquarks on the lattice in a gauge-invariant formalism in full QCD. We establish their spectral masses with short extrapolations to the physical point, observing agreement with phenomenological…
We present a lattice analysis of the light pseudoscalar mesons with consideration for the mixing between the flavour-neutral states $\pi^0$, $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$. We extract the masses and flavour compositions of the pseudoscalar meson…
Quantum link models provide an extension of Wilson's lattice gauge theory in which the link Hilbert space is finite-dimensional and corresponds to a representation of an embedding algebra. In contrast to Wilson's parallel transporters,…
We perform digital quantum simulation, using a classical simulator, to study screening and confinement in a gauge theory with a topological term, focusing on ($1+1$)-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (Schwinger model) with a theta term.…
The current precision reached by lattice QCD calculations of low-energy hadronic observables, requires not only the introduction of electromagnetic corrections, but also control over all the potential systematic uncertainties introduced by…
We present the status of our project to calculate $D \to \pi \ell \nu$, $D \to K \ell \nu$ and $D_s \to K \ell \nu$ semileptonic form factors using domain wall fermions for both heavy and light quarks. Our computations are performed using…
Lattice QCD simulations directly at physical masses of dynamical light, strange and charm quarks are highly desirable especially to remove systematic errors due to chiral extrapolations. However such simulations are still challenging. We…
We calculate $K\to\pi\pi$ matrix elements using periodic boundary conditions as an independent calculation from our previous study with G-parity boundary conditions. We present our preliminary results for $K\to\pi\pi$ three-point functions…
We propose a new method for simulating lattice gauge theories in the presence of fermions. The method combines flow-based generative models for local gauge field updates and hierarchical updates of the factorized fermion determinant. The…
In recent years there has been much progress on the investigation of the QCD phase diagram with lattice QCD. This talk will focus on the developments in the last few years. Especially the addition of external influences and extended ranges…
We study the $q$-state Potts models on a cubic lattice in the thermodynamic limit using tensor renormalization group transformations with the triad approximation. By computing the thermodynamic potentials, we locate the first-order phase…
We present our results on the electromagnetic form factor of pion over a wide range of $Q^2$ using lattice QCD simulations with Wilson-clover valence quarks and HISQ sea quarks. We study the form factor at the physical point with a lattice…
An investigation of the performance of the multilevel algorithm in the approach to criticality has been undertaken using the Ising model, performing simulations across a range of temperatures. Numerical results show that the performance of…
We report a first principle lattice calculation of the pion electric polarizability $\alpha_\pi$ at the physical pion mass. First, we derive the master formula, which relates the pion polarizabilities with the position space hadronic…
Hyperon decays present a promising alternative for extracting $\vert V_{us} \vert$ from lattice QCD combined with experimental measurements. Currently $\vert V_{us} \vert$ is determined from the kaon decay widths and a lattice calculation…
