We present the most precise determination to date of the ground-state masses of the triply charmed baryons with both parities, obtained by continuum extrapolation and fully addressing the systematic uncertainties. The calculations are…
This chapter provides a pedagogical introduction to lattice quantum field theory, with strong emphasis on lattice quantum chromodynamics. The chapter reviews key foundational concepts of lattice quantum chromodynamics, as well as a broad…
We study the color correlation between two static quarks in 3Q ($QQQ$) and 4Q ($QQ\bar Q\bar Q$) multiquark systems at $T=0$ based on the reduced two-body density matrices $\rho$ in color space. We perform quenched lattice QCD calculations…
We propose a lattice formulation of the Arf-Brown-Kervaire (ABK) invariant which takes values in $\mathbb{Z}_8$. Compared to the standard $\mathbb{Z}$-valued index, the ABK invariant is more involved in that it arises in Majorana fermion…
We present updated results for the hadronic light-by-light (HLbL) contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. The calculations are based on ETMC's $N_f=2+1+1$ Wilson-clover twisted-mass ensembles at the physical point. We perform…
We provide results for the vacuum expectation values of the flowed action density, the quark condensate, and the quark kinetic operator in the gradient-flow formalism. We work in $N_\text{F}$-flavor QCD, keeping the heaviest quark massive…
We present the first principle calculation of charmed baryon decay constants employing 2+1 flavor gauge ensembles with lattice spacings ranging from 0.05 to 0.1 fm and pion masses between 136 and 310 MeV. Under $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry, we…
We propose a practical formulation of the overlap Dirac operator in lattice QCD that employs the diagonal Kenney-Laub rational iterates - expressed via their partial fraction decomposition - to approximate the matrix sign function. We…
We introduce a learning method for recovering action parameters in lattice field theories. Our method is based on the minimization of a convex loss function constructed using the Schwinger-Dyson relations. We show that score matching, a…
Although ensemble generation remains a central challenge in lattice field theory simulations, recent advances in generative modeling may offer a path to accelerated sampling in these contexts. In this work, we implement a framework for…
A crucial step in extracting physical predictions from lattice QCD simulations is the scale setting, i.e. the determination of the lattice spacing ($a$) in physical units. Herein, the relative scale setting for different $\beta$'s is…
We construct a higher lattice gauge theory based on the representation of 2-groups described by a category of crossed modules on a lattice model described by path 2-groupoids. Using these lattice gauge representations, an exactly solvable…
We combine reinforcement learning with variational autoregressive networks (VANs) to perform data-free training and sampling for the discrete Ising model and the continuous $\phi^4$ scalar field theory. We quantify the complexity of the…
The nature of the chiral phase transition of QCD continues to represent a fundamental open problem in the study of strongly interacting matter. In recent years, significant progress has been achieved by exploiting systematic variations of…
For SU(3) lattice QCD calculations at finite baryon-number densities, we propose the ``SO(3) real algebra method'', in which the SU(3) gauge variable is divided into the SO(3) and SU(3)/SO(3) parts. In this method, we introduce the…
We investigate the $S$- and $P$-wave phase shifts for the $DD^\ast$ and $BB^\ast$ scatterings using L\"uscher's finite-size method under twisted boundary conditions to search for doubly charmed tetraquaks, $T_{cc}^+$, and doubly bottomed…
We present lattice results for the flavor diagonal charges of the proton from the analysis of eight ensembles generated using 2+1+1-flavors of highly improved staggered quarks (HISQ) by the MILC collaboration. The calculation includes all…
Continuous normalizing flows are known to be highly expressive and flexible, which allows for easier incorporation of large symmetries and makes them a powerful computational tool for lattice field theories. Building on previous work, we…
We consider $\phi^4$ theory with $\phi(x)\in\mathbb{R}$ in two Euclidean dimensions. We determine for a variety of self-couplings $\hat{\lambda}$ the (negative) critical bare mass $\hat{\mu}_{0\mathrm{c}}^2(\hat{\lambda})$ where the…
A representation of Lattice Gauge Theories (LGT) suitable for simulations with tensor network state methods or with quantum computers requires a truncation of the Hilbert space to a finite dimensional approximation. In particular for U(1)…
