We develop a strategy for computing the $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ and $\bar{B}_s\to\gamma\ell^+\ell^-$ decay amplitudes using lattice QCD (where $\ell^\pm$ are charged leptons). We focus on those terms which contain complex contributions to the…
Simulating the kappa(800) on the lattice is a challenging task that starts to become feasible due to the rapid progress in recent-years lattice QCD calculations. As the resonance is broad, special attention to finite-volume effects has to…
We explore the possibility for an evaluation of non-leptonic $\Delta S=1$ $K$ decay amplitudes through the calculation of $K\to\pi$ matrix elements using domain-wall QCD. The relation between the physical $K\to\pi\pi$ matrix elements and…
The calculation of QCD corrections beyond the leading logarithmic approximation for the short-distance dominated rare decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ is summarized. This analysis requires the complete ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ corrections to the…
In this study, we extend the HAL QCD method to a case where a total momentum of a two-particle system is non-zero and apply it to the $I=2$ S-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering in order to confirm its validity. We derive a fundamental relation of an…

In this Letter we employ lattice simulations to search for the critical point of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We search for the onset of a first order QCD transition on the phase diagram by following contours of constant entropy density…
We determine the nature of the QCD transition using lattice calculations for physical quark masses. Susceptibilities are extrapolated to vanishing lattice spacing for three physical volumes, the smallest and largest of which differ by a…

Mixing in the $\Sigma^0$-$\Lambda^0$ system is a direct consequence of broken isospin symmetry and is a measure of both isospin-symmetry breaking as well as general SU(3)-flavour symmetry breaking. In this work we present a new scheme for…
I review lattice calculations of quantities that involve light quarks, including light quark masses, the vector form factor f_+(0) needed for semileptonic kaon decays, and kaon mixing. Results for most of these quantities are now available…
The $DD^*$ scattering phase shifts in the $T_{cc}^+=cc\bar{u}\bar{d}$ channel are extracted from lattice QCD for five different charm quark masses and a fixed light-quark mass corresponding to $m_\pi\simeq 280$~MeV. The phase shifts are…
We determine the energy-dependent amplitude for elastic {\pi}{\pi} P-wave scattering in isospin-1 by computing part of the discrete energy spectrum of QCD in finite cubic boxes. We observe a rapidly rising phase shift that can be well…

A calculation of the ratio of leptonic decay constants f_{K^+}/f_{\pi^+} makes possible a precise determination of the ratio of CKM matrix elements |V_{us}|/|V_{ud}| in the Standard Model, and places a stringent constraint on the scale of…
We present the results of our lattice QCD study of the $\pi\gamma\to\pi\pi$ process, where the $\rho$ resonance appears as an enhancement in the transition amplitude. We use $N_f=2+1$ clover fermions on a lattice of $L=3.6$ fm and a pion…
