Notes of the lectures delivered in Les Houches during the Summer School on Complex Systems (July 2006).
These lecture notes contain an elementary introduction to lattice QCD at nonzero chemical potential. Topics discussed include chemical potential in the continuum and on the lattice; the sign, overlap and Silver Blaze problems; the phase…
These are the proceedings of the symposium on ``Frontiers in Nuclear Physics'' held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef from June 18 to 20, 2009. The workshop concentrated on recent advances in the understanding of the nuclear forces,…
One of the overarching goals of nuclear physics is to rigorously compute properties of hadronic systems directly from the fundamental theory of strong interactions, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, the hope is to perform…

I give a brief introduction to lattice QCD for non-specialists.
I review recent lattice results on the spectrum and structure of baryons. Limitations due to the quenched approximation and un-physically heavy up and down quarks are discussed, and interfaces between first principles studies of QCD (or…
Explorations of the properties of light nuclear systems beyond their lowest-lying spectra have begun with Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics. While progress has been made in the past year in pursuing calculations with physical quark masses,…
Recent trends in lattice QCD calculations and latest results are reviewed, with particular emphasis on multiquark-states and the nucleon structure.
A new method for nuclear potentials is reviewed. The strategy to extract the potential from the Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter wave function in lattice QCD is explained and the first result based on the method is presented in quenched QCD. The recent…
Recent studies by the NPLQCD collaboration of hadronic interactions using lattice QCD are reviewed, with an emphasis on a recent calculation of meson-baryon scattering lengths. Ongoing high-statistics calculations of baryon interactions are…
A pedagogical introduction to Wilson loops, lattice gauge theory and the 1/N-expansion of QCD is presented. The three introductory lectures were given at the 37th ITEP Winter School of Physics, Moscow, February 9-16, 2009.
Historically, lattice studies of QCD have concentrated on understanding the properties and structure of an isolated hadron. Recently, there have efforts at understanding the interactions between hadrons. In this talk I will review two…
I give a brief introduction to the goals, challenges, and technical difficulties of lattice QCD thermodynamics and present some recent results from the HotQCD collaboration for the crossover temperature, equation of state, and other…
A brief outlook on low-energy nuclear physics is presented. Selected recent developments in nuclear structure theory are highlighted and a few open questions are discussed.

We review recent progress of the HAL QCD method which was recently proposed to investigate hadron interactions in lattice QCD. The strategy to extract the energy-independent non-local potential in lattice QCD is explained in detail. The…
This is the "preprint" for a paper that came out in 1998 but for some reason wasn't posted then. Abstract:These lectures are for novices to lattice QCD. They introduce a set of simple ideas and numerical techniques that can be implemented…
