We propose a new method to renormalize lattice operators. The method is based on the technique to compute the spectral sum appearing in the Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov QCD sum rule from lattice correlators. The application of this technique…
We examine the diffraction properties of lattice dynamical systems of algebraic origin. It is well-known that diverse dynamical properties occur within this class. These include different orders of mixing (or higher-order correlations), the…

It is shown theoretically how to directly obtain the energy distribution of a weakly interacting gas of bosons confined in an optical lattice in the tight-binding limit. This is accomplished by adding a linear potential to a suitably…
The eigenvalue spectrum $\rho(\lambda)$ of the Dirac operator is numerically calculated in lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of dynamical domain-wall fermions. In the high-energy regime, the discretization effects become significant. We subtract…
Associated with the use of conventional integrated parton densities are kinematic approximations on parton momenta which result in unphysical differential distributions for final-state particles. We argue that it is important to reformulate…
The pseudoscalar correlator is an ideal lattice probe for thermal modifications to quarkonium spectra, given that it is not compromised by a contribution from a large transport peak. We construct a perturbative spectral function…
Soon after the formulation of Quantum Chromodynamics in 1972 its regularization on Euclidean space-time lattices had been introduced by Kenneth Wilson. This paved ground for numerical studies of non-perturbative aspects of QCD, first shown…
The multiple scattering of coherent light is a problem of both fundamental and applied importance. In optics, phase conjugation allows spatial focussing and imaging through a multiply scattering medium; however, temporal control is…
A novel proposal is outlined to determine scattering amplitudes from finite-volume spectral functions. The method requires extracting smeared spectral functions from finite-volume Euclidean correlation functions, with a particular complex…
We study Euclidean lattice formulations of non-gauge supersymmetric models with up to four supercharges in various dimensions. We formulate the conditions under which the interacting lattice theory can exactly preserve one or more nilpotent…
We investigate the in-medium modifications of heavy quarkonia in the vector channel and the heavy quark diffusion coefficient by comparing Euclidean correlators from the lattice to a perturbative spectral function. On the lattice side, we…
Lattice QCD predicts a rich spectroscopy of glueballs and $q\bar{q}-$glue h ybrids. I compare these with data and assess the emerging empirical situation. Questions for the lattice are proposed.
