We review a number of topics related to block variable renormalisation group transformations of quantum fields on the lattice, and to the emerging perfect lattice actions. We first illustrate this procedure by considering scalar fields.…
We present a calculation of the standard model \Delta S=2 matrix element relevant to indirect CP violation in K->\pi\pi decays which uses Neuberger's chiral formulation of lattice fermions. The computation is performed in the quenched…
We present a two-flavor QCD calculation of $B_K$ on a $16^3 \times 32$ lattice at $a\sim 0.12$ fm (or equivalently $a^{-1}\sim$1.67 GeV). Both valence and sea quarks are described by the overlap fermion formulation. The matching factor is…
We present lattice QCD results for the matrix elements of $R_2$ and other dimension-7, $\Delta B = 2$ operators relevant for calculations of $\Delta \Gamma_s$, the $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ width difference. We have computed correlation functions…
We discuss how the peculiar properties of maximally twisted Wilson fermions can be exploited to set up a consistent LQCD computational scheme in which the CP-conserving matrix elements of the $\Delta S =1,2$ effective weak Hamiltonian can…
Domain-wall fermions (DWF) is a lattice discretization for Dirac fields that preserves continuum-like chiral and flavor symmetries that are essential in hadron physics. RIKEN-BNL-Columbia (RBC) and UKQCD Collaborations have been generating…
We present lattice calculations of kaon matrix elements with domain wall fermions. Using lattices with beta=5.85, 6.0, and 6.3, we estimate B_K(approx 2 GeV)=0.628(47) in quenched QCD which is consistent with previous calculations. At…
We present results of a lattice simulation of quantum chromodynamics with two degenerate flavors of dynamic Wilson fermions at $6/g^2=5.3$ at each of two dynamical fermion hopping parameters, $\kappa=0.1670$ and 0.1675, corresponding to…
We calculate the leading-order matrix element for the decay $B \to K^* \gamma$ in the quenched approximation of lattice QCD on a $24^3 \times 48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$, using an O(a)-improved fermion action. Extrapolating the quark masses…
We review lattice results related to pion, kaon, $D$-meson, $B$-meson, and nucleon physics with the aim of making them easily accessible to the nuclear and particle physics communities. More specifically, we report on the determination of…
We report on an exploratory study of domain wall fermions (DWF) as a lattice regularisation for heavy quarks. Within the framework of quenched QCD with the tree-level improved Symanzik gauge action we identify the DWF parameters which…
We report on the status of our dynamical simulations of a $SU (N_c )$ gauge theory with $N_c=3-6$ and $N_f =4$ fundamental fermions. These ensembles can be used to study the Large $N_c$ scaling of weak matrix elements in the GIM limit…
We present a lattice calculation of the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ matrix elements of the $\Delta S=1$ effective weak Hamiltonian which can be used to determine $\epsilon^\prime/\epsilon$ and the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule for $K$ decays in the…
We calculate the B-parameters for operators arising in theories of new physics beyond the standard model (BSM) using HYP-smeared improved staggered fermions on the MILC asqtad lattices with N_f = 2+1 flavors. We use three different lattice…
We introduce a new parameterization of four-fermion matrix elements which does not involve quark masses and thus allows a reduction of systematic uncertainties in physical amplitudes. As a result the apparent quadratic dependence of e'/e on…
We compute on the lattice the ``bag'' parameters of the five (Delta B = 2) operators of the supersymmetric basis, by combining their values determined in full QCD and in the static limit of HQET. The extrapolation of the QCD results from…
We discuss some large effects of dynamical fermions. One is a cutoff effect, others concern the contribution of multi-pion states to correlation functions and are expected to survive the continuum limit. We then turn to the preparation for…
The B-$\bar B$ mixing, B-meson lifetimes, the $B_{s}$-$\bar{B}_{s}$ lifetime difference and SUSY FCNC effects in $\Delta B=2$ processes are very important measurable quantities in B-meson phenomenology whose theoretical predictions depend…
