We study spin $\frac12$ hadronic states in quenched lattice QCD to search for a possible $S=+1$ pentaquark resonance. Our work is the first systematic lattice QCD study which properly carries out the following analyses: {\it (1) the careful…
We present the results of a lattice calculation of four-quark states with the quark contents $\bar{b}\bar{c}q_1q_2$ where $q_1,q_2 \in u,d,s$. For the spin 1 states, when the light quark ($q_1, q_2$) masses are lighter, we find at least one…

We study the question of whether or not QCD predicts a pentaquark state. We use the improved, fixed point lattice QCD action which has very little sensitivity to the lattice spacing and also allows us to reach light quark masses. The…
We calculate the form factors for the $B \to D^*\ell\nu_\ell$ decay in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. For all quark flavors, we employ the M\"obius domain-wall action, which preserves chiral symmetry to a good precision. Our gauge ensembles are…
We present results for the mass of the $b$ quark in the $\bar{MS}$ scheme obtained by calculating the binding energy of the $B$ meson in the static limit. The self energy of a static quark, $E_0^\infty$ needed for this purpose, is now known…

The static three-quark (3Q) potential is measured in the SU(3) lattice QCD with $12^3 \times 24$ and $\beta=5.7$ at the quenched level. From the 3Q Wilson loop, the 3Q ground-state potential $V_{\rm 3Q}$ is extracted using the smearing…
In the framework of the chiral quark model, we investigate the $Qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$ ($Q= c, b$ and $q= u, d$) tetraquark system with two structures: $Q\bar{q}$-$q\bar{q}$ and $Qq$-$\bar{q}\bar{q}$. The bound-state calculation shows that for…
