We present the first study of $N_f=2+1+1+1$ lattice QCD with domain-wall quarks. The $(b, c, s)$ quarks are physical, while the $(u, d)$ quarks are heavier than their physical masses, with the pion mass $ \sim 700 $ MeV. The gauge ensemble…
I present a brief summary of the status and prospects of improved Wilson-type quark actions for coarse lattice simulations. My conclusions are optimistic.
While the standard model is the most successfully theory to describe all interactions and constituents in elementary particle physics, it has been constantly examined for over four decades. Weak decays of charm quarks can measure the…
We show that using the multisplitting algorithm as a preconditioner for conjugate gradient inversion of the domain wall fermion Dirac operator could effectively reduce the inter-node communication cost, at the expense of performing more…

It is well established that lattice artifacts can be suppressed substantially by the use of SU(3)-projected smeared links in the fermion action. An example is the Highly Improved Staggered Quark action where the ASQ-like effective links are…
In this work, we perform parameter tuning with dynamical anisotropic clover lattices using the Schr\"odinger functional and stout-smearing in the fermion field. We find that $\xi_R/\xi_0$ is relatively close to 1 in our parameter search,…
The M\"obius domain wall action \cite{Brower:2004xi} is a generalization of Shamir's action, which gives exactly the same overlap fermion lattice action as the separation ($L_s$) between the domain walls is taken to infinity. The…
We present results for $f_B$, $f_{B_s}$, $f_D$, $f_{D_s}$ and their ratios in the presence of two flavors of light sea quarks ($N_f=2$). We use Wilson light valence quarks and Wilson and static heavy valence quarks; the sea quarks are…
