I review recent progresses in heavy quarks physics on the lattice. I focus on decay constants and form factors relevant for the extraction of CKM matrix elements from experimental data. B-\bar{B} mixing is also discussed. In the last part…
Essential to QCD applications of the operator product expansion, etc., is a knowledge of those operators that mix with gauge-invariant operators. A standard theorem asserts that the renormalization matrix is triangular: Gauge-invariant…
The chromoelectric and chromomagnetic fields, created by a static gluon-quark-antiquark system, are computed in the quenched approximation of lattice QCD, in a $24^3\times 48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$. We study two geometries, one with a U…
We investigate the strong coupling limit of lattice QCD in the Hamiltonian formulation for systems with non-zero baryon density. In leading order the Hamiltonian looks like an antiferromagnet that is invariant under global U(N_f)xU(N_f) and…
We calculate the O(g^2 a) mixing coefficients of bilinear quark operators in lattice QCD using a standard perturbative evaluation of on-shell Green's functions. Our results for the plaquette gluon action are in agreement with those…
Sums of walks for charged particles (e.g. Hofstadter electrons) on a square lattice in the presence of a magnetic field are evaluated. Returning loops are systematically added to directed paths to obtain the unrestricted propagators.…
In QCD chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by quark masses, the effect of which can be described reliably by chiral perturbation theory. Effects of explicit chiral symmetry breaking by the lattice regularisation of the Dirac operator,…
The effective electroweak Hamiltonian in the gradient-flow formalism is constructed for the current-current operators through next-to-next-to-leading order QCD. The results are presented for two common choices of the operator basis. This…
We present a lattice calculation of the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. This work is based on a subset of the CLS ensembles with $N_f = 2+1$ dynamical quarks and a quenched charm quark. Noise…
We derive formulas for the matrix elements of the lattice Green function for the discrete Poisson equation on an infinite square lattice. The partial difference equation for the matrix elements is solved by reducing it to a series of first…
A system of two identical spinless bosons on the two-dimensional lattice is considered under the assumption that on-site and first and second nearest-neighboring site interactions between the bosons are only nontrivial and that these…
Quantum triangular-lattice antiferromagnets are important prototype systems to investigate phenomena of the geometrical frustration in condensed matter. Apart from highly unusual magnetic properties, they possess a rich phase diagram…
We report the computation of the matrix element of the chromomagnetic operator of the flavour changing neutral current (FCNC)-type between a $B$- or $D$-meson state and a light hadron and off-shell photon. The computation is carried out by…
We study operators to create hadronic states made of light quarks in quenched lattice gauge theory. We construct non-local gauge-invariant operators which provide information about the spatial extent of the ground state and excited states.…
We discuss perturbative O(g^2a) matching with static heavy quarks and domain-wall light quarks for lattice operators relevant to B-meson decays and $B^0$-$\bar{B}^0$ mixing. The chiral symmetry of the light domain-wall quarks does not…
We study the classical antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the triangular lattice with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions in a magnetic field. We focus in particular in the emergence of a composite spin crystal phase, dubbed…
A linear spin-wave approach, a variational method and exact diagonlization are used to investigate the magnetic long-range order (LRO) of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a two-dimensional 1/7-depleted triangular (maple leaf)…
We define a regularization-independent momentum-subtraction scheme for the $CP$-odd three-gluon operator at dimension six. This operator appears in effective field theories for heavy physics beyond the Standard Model, describing the…
Quantum Chromodynamics is the theory of strong interactions. It has been shown during the last decades that it describes correctly most of the properties of hadrons at high energy. The most distinctive feature of the theory is the…
We systematically examine various proposals which aim at increasing the accuracy in the determination of the renormalization of two-fermion lattice operators. We concentrate on three finite quantities which are particularly suitable for our…
