In previous work, we determined the improvement coefficients $c_\mathrm{V}$ and $c_{\tilde{\mathrm{V}}}$ required for the massless $\mathrm{O}(a)$-improvement of the local and point-split discretizations of the non-singlet vector current…
We present the first lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculation of the pion valence-quark transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution function (TMDPDF) within the framework of large-momentum effective theory (LaMET). Using…
We present the \texttt{NeuMC} software package, based on \pytorch, aimed at facilitating the research on neural samplers in lattice field theories. Neural samplers based on normalizing flows are becoming increasingly popular in the context…
Understanding flux string dynamics can provide insight into quark confinement and hadronization. First-principles quantum and numerical simulations have mostly focused on toy-model Abelian lattice gauge theories (LGTs). With the advent of…
Gauged fermionic projected entangled pair states (GFPEPS) and their Gaussian counterpart (GGFPEPS) are a novel type of lattice gauge theory Ansatz state that combine ideas from the Monte Carlo and tensor network communities. In particular,…
We study methods for efficient preparation of approximate ground states of $SU(3)$ lattice gauge theory on quantum hardware. Working in a variant of the electric basis, we introduce a refinement of the irrep truncation based on the energy…
We extend the relativistic field theoretic finite-volume formalism to $N \pi \pi$ scattering states at maximal isospin, $I=5/2$. As in previous work using the relativistic field theory approach, we work to all orders in a generic low-energy…
The FASTSUM collaboration has a long-standing programme of using anisotropic lattice QCD to investigate strong interaction thermodynamics, and in particular spectral quantities. Here we present first results from our new ensemble which has…
Theories with a sign problem due to a complex action or Boltzmann weight can sometimes be numerically solved using a stochastic process in the complexified configuration space. However, the probability distribution effectively sampled by…
After fixing the Maximal Abelian gauge in SU(3) lattice gluodynamics we decompose the nonabelian gauge field into the Abelian field created by Abelian monopoles and the modified nonabelian field with monopoles removed. We then calculate…
We present results for the chromo-electric field generated by a static quark-antiquark pair at finite temperature, in lattice QCD with 2+1 dynamical staggered fermions at physical quark masses. We investigate the evolution of the field as…
We present a field configuration-based temperature estimator in lattice gauge theories, constructed from the gradient and Hessian of the Euclidean action. Adapted from geometric formulations of entropy in classical statistical mechanics,…
We evaluate the Collins-Soper kernel and the reduced soft function in lattice QCD, incorporating $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ matching corrections. The calculation relies on the evaluation of the quasi-transverse momentum-dependent wave function…
The Equation of State of Quantum Chromodynamics with $N_f=3$ flavours is determined non-perturbatively with a precision of about $0.5\%-1.0\%$ in the range of temperatures between 3 GeV and 165 GeV. The computation is carried out by…
We present the first lattice QCD determination of coupled $DD_s^*$ and $D^*D_s$ scattering amplitudes in the $J^{P}=1^{+}$ channel and elastic $DD_s$ scattering amplitude in the $J^{P}=0^{+}$ channel. The aim is to investigate whether…
We review recent and present new results on thermalization of nonabelian gauge theory obtained by exact numerical simulation of the real-time dynamics of $(2+1)$-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We discuss: (1) tests confirming the…
We present a lattice QCD calculation of the S-wave interactions between the spin-1/2 doubly charmed baryons ($\Xi_{cc},\Omega_{cc}$) and Goldstone bosons ($\pi,K,\bar{K}$) using the $N_f=2+1$ CLQCD ensembles with lattice spacing $a =…
We present non-perturbative results of the Casimir potential in non-abelian SU(3) gauge theory in (2+1)D and (3+1)D in the confined and deconfined phase. For the first time, geometries beyond parallel plates in (3+1)D are explored and we…
The three-dimensional U(1) gauge theory displays a peculiar form of confinement which does not fit in the standard paradigm of effective string theory. In this work, we report results of numerical computations of the ground state energy of…
The neutrinoless double-beta decay process $nn\rightarrow ppee$ within the light Majorana-exchange scenario is studied using the relativistic pionless effective field theory (EFT) in finite-volume cubic boxes with the periodic boundary…
