Any physical system considered to study the QCD deconfinement phase transition certainly has a finite volume, so the finite size effects are inevitably present. This renders the location of the phase transition and the determination of its…
In recent years the perturbative expansion of the pressure of massless QCD has been driven to order g^6ln(g) at high temperatures and finite chemical potentials, which has required calculations up to three-loop order in the full theory and…
Few-body hadronic observables play an essential role in a wide number of processes relevant for both particle and nuclear physics. In order for Lattice QCD to offer insight into the interpretation of few-body states, a theoretical…
We construct several explicit instances of quantum Tanner codes, a class of asymptotically good quantum low-density parity check (qLDPC) codes. The codes are constructed using dihedral groups and random pairs of classical codes and exhibit…
The study of nuclear physics using lattice QCD is hindered by an exponentially large signal-to-noise problem which is conventionally alleviated by raising the quark masses to unphysically high values. We propose a novel form of partial…

We use lattice QCD calculations of the finite-volume spectra of systems of two and three mesons to determine, for the first time, three-particle scattering amplitudes with physical quark masses. Our results are for combinations of $\pi^+$…
There is only limited experimental evidence for the existence in nature of phase transitions of Ehrenfest order greater than two. However, there is no physical reason for their non-existence, and such transitions certainly exist in a number…
The relativistic two-body problem is considered for spinless particles subject to an external macroscopic electromagnetic field. When this field is made of the monochromatic superposition of two counter-propagating plane waves (and provided…
We present a generalization of Luescher's relation between the finite-volume spectrum and scattering amplitudes to the case of three particles. We consider a relativistic scalar field theory in which the couplings are arbitrary aside from a…
We study the resonant set of a two-level Schr\"odinger operator with a linear conical intersection. This model operator can be decomposed into a direct sum of first order systems on the real half-line. For these ordinary differential…
We investigate four-quark systems consisting of two heavy anti-bottom quarks and two light up/down quarks. We propose to solve a coupled Schr\"odinger equation for the anti-bottom-anti-bottom separation using potentials computed via lattice…
The status of lattice QCD investigations at high temperature is reviewed. After a short introduction into thermal QCD on the lattice we report on the present understanding of the phase diagram and the equation of state, in particular in…
The computation of perturbative corrections to processes involving heavy quarks is crucial for the precision program of the LHC and future colliders. In this article, we describe a powerful approach to calculate higher-orders in QCD…
In a lattice QCD calculation with two light dynamical Chirally Improved (CI) quarks we determine ground state and some excited state masses in all four Lambda baryon channels 1/2^\pm and 3/2^\pm. We perform an infinite volume extrapolation…
Uncertainty lower bounds for parameter estimations associated with a unitary family of mixed-state density matrices are obtained by embedding the space of density matrices in the Hilbert space of square-root density matrices. In the…

The inclusive four-particle phase space integral of any $1\to 4$ matrix element in massless QCD contains divergences due to the soft and collinear emission of up to two particles in the final state. We show that any term appearing in this…
