Recent FPGA accelerator cards promise large acceleration factors for some specific computational tasks. In the context of Lattice QCD calculations, we investigate the possible gain of moving the $SU(3)$ gauge field smearing routine to such…
We study the latent heat and the pressure gap between the hot and cold phases at the first-order transition temperature $T=T_c$ of SU(3) Yang-Mills theory, using the small flow-time expansion (SF$t$X) method based on the gradient flow. We…
In this preprint we present our results on the study of the electromagnetic conductivity in dense quark-gluon plasma obtained within lattice simulations with $N_f = 2 + 1$ dynamical quarks. We employ stout improved rooted staggered quarks…
Preliminary results are presented for nucleon isovector charges and twist-2 matrix elements which have been obtained employing an improved analysis strategy to deal with excited-state contamination. The set of CLS $N_f=2+1$ gauge ensembles…
We present preliminary results from our calculation of the low energy constants (LECs) of the chiral effective theory for 3, 4 and 5 color QCD with $N_f=2$ dynamical fermion flavors. We simulate with clover fermions over a range of lattice…
We study static magnetic susceptibility $\chi(T, \mu)$ in $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory with $N_f = 2$ light flavours of dynamical fermions at finite chemical potential $\mu$. Using linear response theory we find that $SU(2)$ gauge theory…
Parton distribution functions (PDFs) and light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) are central non-perturbative objects of interest in high-energy inelastic and elastic scattering, respectively. As a result, an ab-initio determination of…
Quantum technologies offer the prospect to efficiently simulate sign-problem afflicted regimes in lattice field theory, such as the presence of topological terms, chemical potentials, and out-of-equilibrium dynamics. In this work, we derive…
In this paper we study, by means of numerical simulations, the behaviour of the scalar glueball mass and the ground state of the torelon for trace deformed Yang-Mills theory defined on $ \mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$, in which center symmetry is…
The tensor renormalization group is a promising numerical method used to study lattice statistical field theories. However, this approach is computationally expensive in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions. Here we use tensor renormalization group…
We consider the role that gauge symmetry breaking terms play on the continuum limit of gauge theories in three dimensions. As a paradigmatic example we consider scalar electrodynamics in which $N_f$ complex scalar fields interact with a…
We study the phase structure of effective models of finite-density QCD using analytic and lattice simulation techniques developed for the study of non-Hermitian and $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric QFTs. Finite-density QCD is symmetric under the…
We review the latest progress in lattice QCD calculations of the partonic structure of hadrons. This structure is, in particular, described in terms of $x$-dependent distributions, the simplest of which are the standard parton distribution…
Quantum computers open the possibility of performing real-time calculations for quantum field theory scattering processes. We propose to use an index averaging the absolute value of the difference between the accurately calculated Trotter…
We study the bottomonium screening masses in a 2+1 flavor QCD medium on the lattice using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark(HISQ) discretization for the quarks. We focus on a wide temperature range in the region $350~{\rm MeV}\le T < 1000…
This thesis deals with the study of properties and interactions of light mesons. Specifically, we focus on hadronic decay and scattering processes, which are dominated by effects of the strong interaction in the low-energy regime. A…
The large-momentum effective theory (LaMET) framework has been widely used to determine the Bjorken-$x$ dependence of parton distribution functions (PDFs) in lattice-QCD hadron-structure calculations. In this proceeding, I highlighted…
We propose an alternative approach to L\"uscher's formula for extracting two-body scattering phase shifts from finite volume spectra with no reliance on the partial wave expansion. We use an effective-field-theory-based Hamiltonian method…
We study two- and three-meson systems composed either of pions or kaons at maximal isospin using Monte Carlo simulations of lattice QCD. Utilizing the stochastic LapH method, we are able to determine hundreds of two- and three-particle…
Two tetraquark candidates $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ with flavor structure $\bar bb\bar du$ were discovered by Belle experiment in 2011. We present a preliminary $N_f=2$ lattice study of the $\bar bb\bar du$ system in the approximation…
