We test a possible digitization of $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ lattice gauge theories based on partitionings of the sphere $S_3$. In our construction the link operators are unitary and diagonal, with eigenvalues determined by the vertices of the…
In this study we present lattice results on the QCD $\beta$-function in the presence of quark masses. The $\beta$-function is calculated to three loops in perturbation theory and for improved lattice actions; it is extracted from the…
We give a brief report on the basic properties and cutoff scale of our new configuration set (HAL-Conf-2023). We generated 8,000 trajectories of the gauge configurations on $96^4$ lattices with the same lattice parameters as the PACS…
We review recent works on the Monte Carlo simulations of dense two-color QCD (QC$_2$D) by focusing on the phase diagram, the equation of state, and the sound velocity at nonzero quark chemical potential. A possible upper bound of the sound…
We present our sparse modeling study to extract spectral functions from Euclidean-time correlation functions. In this study covariance between different Euclidean times of the correlation function is taken into account, which was not done…
We study the Renormalisation Group (RG) running of the non-singlet tensor operator, for $N_\mathrm{\scriptstyle f}=3$ QCD with Wilson fermions in a mixed action setup, with standard Schr\"odinger Functional (SF) boundary conditions for sea…
The standard approach to compute the glueball spectrum on the lattice relies on the evaluation of effective masses from two-point correlation functions of operators with the quantum numbers of the desired state. In this work, we propose an…
We show that an infinitesimal step of gradient flow can be used for defining a novel approach for computing gradients of physical observables with respect to action parameters. Compared to the commonly used perturbative expansion, this…
We present the numerical equivalence between the Wilson flow and stout-link smearing, both of which are known to be a relatively new technique for smoothing the gauge fields on the lattice. Although the conceptional correspondence between…
We calculate the eigenmodes of the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) matrix near the chiral crossover transition in QCD with $2+1$ flavors with the aim to gain more insights into its temperature dependence. On performing the continuum…
The pion decay constant $F_{\pi}$ plays an important role in QCD and in Chiral Perturbation Theory. It is hardly known, however, that a corresponding constant exists in the Schwinger model with $N_{\rm f} \geq 2$ degenerate fermion flavors.…
After briefly reviewing the potential for the $N$-flavor Thirring model, formulated with reducible fermions in 2+1$d$, to exhibit a strongly-coupled UV-stable fixed point where U($2N$) symmetry is spontaneously broken by a fermion bilinear…
We present a study of the 3d O(2) non-linear $\sigma$-model on the lattice, which exhibits topological defects in the form of vortices. They tend to organize into vortex lines that bear close analogies with global cosmic strings. Therefore,…
We discuss the main issues in dealing with heavy quarks on the lattice and shortly present the different approaches used. We discuss a selection of computations covering first the b-quark mass and the B(s) meson decay constants as the…
We study the Schwinger model at finite-temperature regime using a quantum-classical hybrid algorithm. The preparation of thermal state on quantum circuit presents significant challenges. To address this, we adopt the Thermal Pure Quantum…
We determine the location of the critical point where the first-order deconfining transition in the heavy-quark region turns into a crossover in finite-temperature and density lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of Wilson quarks. Combining a…
We report on the first lattice determination of the pseudoscalar meson $\eta_c$ light-cone distribution amplitude, using a set of three CLS $N_f=2$ ensembles at a pion mass $m_{\pi} \sim 270~\text{MeV}$ and lattice spacings $a \sim…
We present results from an ongoing project concerned with the computation of $\mathcal{O}(1/m_Q)$ and $\mathcal{O}(1/m_Q^2)$ relativistic corrections to the static potential. These corrections are extracted from Wilson loops with two…
Hadronic contributions dominate the uncertainty of the standard model prediction for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. In this work, we describe an ongoing lattice calculation of the hadronic light-by-light contribution, performed…
We use the Logarithmic Linear Relaxation (LLR) density of states algorithm to study the bulk phase transitions of pure-gauge SU($N$) lattice Yang--Mills theories with $4 \leq N \leq 8$. This approach avoids super-critical slowing down at…
