We report the recent progress in relativistic mean-field (RMF) and beyond approaches for the low-energy structure of deformed hypernuclei. We show that the $\Lambda$ hyperon with orbital angular momentum $\ell=0$ (or $\ell>1$) generally…

The stiff equation of state (EoS) giving the neutron-star mass of $2M_{\odot}$ suggests the existence of strongly repulsive many-body effect (MBE) not only in nucleon channels but also in hyperonic ones. As a specific model for MBE, the…

The structure of neutron-rich $\Lambda$ hypernucleus, $^7_{\Lambda}$He is studied within the framework of an $\alpha +\Lambda +n+n$ four-body cluster model. We predict second $3/2^+$ and $5/2^+$ states, corresponding to a $0s$ $\Lambda$…

We show how nuclear effective field theory (EFT) and ab initio nuclear-structure methods can turn input from lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) into predictions for the properties of nuclei. We argue that pionless EFT is the appropriate…
