The status of Lattice QCD is reviewed with respect to results that are relevant to Standard Model phenomenology. I argue that in a few simple cases all (or almost all) systematic errors from the lattice calculation are under control.…
We present results for matrix elements of $\Delta S=2$ four-fermion operators arising generically in models of new physics. These are needed to constrain such models using the measured values of $\varepsilon_K$ and $\Delta M_K$. We use…
The interaction effects in ultracold Fermi gases with SU($N$) symmetry are studied non-perturbatively in half-filled one-dimensional lattices by employing quantum Monte Carlo simulations.We find that as $N$ increases, weak and strong…
Problems in lattice gauge models with fermions are discussed. A new bosonic Hermitean effective action for lattice QCD with dynamical quarks is presented. In distinction of the previous version, it does not include constraints and is better…
Based on local gauge invariance, four different kinds of fundamental interactions in Nature are unified in a theory which has $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1) \otimes_s Gravitational Gauge Group$ gauge symmetry. In this approach,…
We propose and study at large N a new lattice gauge model , in which the Yang-Mills interaction is induced by the heavy scalar field in adjoint representation. At any dimension of space and any $ N $ the gauge fields can be integrated out…
Significant progress has recently been achieved in the lattice gauge theory calculations required for extracting the fundamental parameters of the standard model from experiment. Recent lattice determinations of such quantities as the kaon…
Using an effective Lagrangian approach we analyze a generic Higgsless model with composite heavy fermions, transforming as SU(2)_{L+R} Doublets. Assuming that the Standard Model fermions acquire mass through mixing with the new heavy…
The naturalness problem in the Higgs sector finds a popular solution in composite Higgs models. In such theories the Higgs boson emerges as the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson associated with the breaking of a global symmetry realised in a…
We present our investigations of SU($N$) adjoint QCD in two dimensions with one Majorana fermion on the lattice. We determine the relevant parameter range for the simulations with Wilson fermions and present results for Polyakov loop,…
We analyze the theory of softly broken supersymmetric $QCD$. Exotic behavior like spontaneously broken baryon number, massless composite fermions and Seiberg's duality seems to persist also in the presence of (small) soft supersymmetry…
Some recent results of lattice QCD calculations which are relevant for the phenomenology of the Standard Model are reviewed. They concern the lattice determinations of quark masses, studies of K-Kbar and B-Bbar mixings, and a prediction of…
Quarkonia -- mesons made of a heavy quark and anti-quark -- have been extensively studied experimentally. Theoretical calculations of quarkonia based on lattice QCD are possible with control over the systematic errors. The comparison with…
We review recent developments in lattice siumulations of the equation of state, order of the thermal phase transition and the determination of the pseudo-critical temperature in (2+1)-flavor QCD. Owing to the increasing computer power, new…
We discuss a supersymmetric unified model based on a product gauge group SU(5)\times SU(5)\times SU(5), where the gauge symmetry breaking is achieved without the adjoint or higher-dimensional Higgs field, and the doublet-triplet splitting…
Some mysterious features of the strong interactions become easily understood if our usual QCD with N=3 is `close to' SU(oo) and if the latter theory is confining. N=oo theories are theoretically simpler; in particular there has been much…
