Recently experimentalists have discovered several charged charmonium-like hadrons $Z_c^+$ with unconventional quark content $\bar cc\bar d u$. We perform a search for $Z_c^+$ with mass below $4.2~$GeV in the channel…
The $Z_{c}(3900)^\pm/Z_c(3885)^\pm$ and $Z_{c}(4020)^\pm$ are two charmonium-like structures discovered in the $\pi J/\psi$ and $D^\ast\bar D^{(\ast)}+h.c.$ invariant mass spectra. Their nature is puzzling due to their charge, which forces…
Many exotic charmoniumlike mesons have already been discovered experimentally, of which the $Z_c$ mesons with $I=1$ are prominent examples. We investigate $J^{PC}=1^{+\pm}$ states with flavor $\bar cc\bar qq$ ($q=u,d$) in $I=1$ using…

Many mesons with properties incompatible with a $\bar cc$ structure have already been discovered, e.g. the $Z_c$ mesons with isospin 1. We investigate the spectrum of exotic charmonium-like mesons using lattice QCD. The focus is on $\bar cc…
We perform coupled channel analysis for $D \bar D^*$, $J/\psi \pi$ and related meson pairs for the $Z_c(3900)$ channel in an effective model of hadrons and quarks. The model incorporates meson exchange potential such as one pion and…
In order to explore the spectrum of hidden-charm scalar and tensor resonances, we study meson-meson scattering with $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 2^{++}$ in the charmonium energy region using lattice QCD. Employing a light-quark mass corresponding to…

Recently three experiments reported a discovery of manifestly exotic Z_c^+(3900) in the decay to J/psi pi+, while J and P are experimentally unknown. We search for this state on the lattice by simulating the channel with J^PC=1^+- and I=1,…
We propose a new application of lattice QCD to calculate the quark-diquark potential, diquark mass and quark mass required for the diquark model. As a concrete example, we consider the $\Lambda_c$ baryon and treat it as a…
Three charmonium-like states were studied using lattice QCD. The candidate for X(3872) was found slightly below DD* threshold in the channel with J^PC=1^++ and I=0, where cc as well as DD* and $J/\psi \omega$ interpolating operators were…
We study the $J/\psi \pi$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ coupled-channel system within a covariant framework. The $J/\psi \pi$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ invariant-mass distributions measured at 4.23~GeV and 4.26~GeV by BESIII and the finite-volume energy levels…
In this exploratory study, near-threshold scattering of $D$ and $\bar{D}^*$ meson is investigated using lattice QCD with $N_f=2+1+1$ twisted mass fermion configurations. The calculation is performed within the coupled-channel L\"uscher's…

We study the meson-meson and meson-baryon interactions in lattice QCD. The simulation is performed on 20^3 * 24 lattice at \beta=5.7 using Wilson gauge action and Wilson fermion at the quenched level. By adopting one static quark for each…
We study the coupled pion-nucleon system (negative parity, isospin 1/2) based on a lattice QCD simulation for nf=2 mass degenerate light quarks. Both, standard 3-quarks baryon operators as well as meson-baryon (4+1)-quark operators are…
The structure of the tetraquark candidate $Z_{c}(3900)$, which was experimentally reported in $e^+ e^-$ collisions, is studied by the s-wave meson-meson coupled-channel scattering on the lattice. The s-wave interactions among the $\pi…
The nature of the recently discovered $Z_c$ and $Z_b$ structures is intriguing. Their charge forces its minimal quark content to be $Q\bar Q q\bar q$ (where $Q=\{c,b\}$ and $q=\{u,d\}$). In this work we perform a molecular coupled-channels…
A number of candidate multiquark hadrons, i.e., particle resonances with substructures that are more complex than the quark-antiquark mesons and three-quark baryons that are prescribed in the textbooks, have recently been observed. In this…
