Using the tadpole improved Wilson quark action on small, coarse and anisotropic lattices, $K\pi$ scattering length in the $I=3/2$ channel is calculated within quenched approximation. The results are extrapolated towards the chiral and…
We prove that every indefinite quadratic form with non-negative integer coefficients is the volume polynomial of a pair of lattice polygons. This solves the discrete version of the Heine-Shephard problem for two bodies in the plane. As an…
We develop a scheme for the extraction of the properties of the scalar mesons f0(600), f0(980), and a0(980) from lattice QCD data. This scheme is based on a two-channel chiral unitary approach with fully relativistic propagators in a finite…
This manuscript is the first in a series of instalments that investigate spherically symmetric solutions within the effective dynamics program of Loop Quantum Gravity. The choice of lattice is adapted such that it remains invariant under a…
Using exact enumerations of self-avoiding walks (SAWs) we compute the inhomogeneous pressure exerted by a two-dimensional end-grafted polymer on the grafting line which limits a semi-infinite square lattice. The results for SAWs show that…
An almost forgotten gem of Gauss tells us how to compute the area of a pentagon by just going around it and measuring areas of each vertex triangles (i.e. triangles whose vertices are three consecutive vertices of the pentagon). We give…
A decay width calculation for a hybrid exotic meson h, with JPC=1-+, is presented for the channel h->pi+a1. This quenched lattice QCD simulation employs Luescher's finite box method. Operators coupling to the h and pi+a1 states are used at…
We give upper-bounds for the dimension of some linear systems. The theorem improves the differential Horace method introduced by Alexander-Hirschowitz, and was conjectured by Simpson. Possible applications are the calculus of the dimension…
The exact finite-size corrections to the free energy $F$ of the dimer model on lattice $\mathcal{M} \times \mathcal{N}$ with cylindrical boundary conditions have been derived for three cases where the lattice is completely covered by…
Scaling arguments are used to analyze the size of topologically constrained closed ring polymer with excluded volume. It is found that there exists a finite range of polymer thickness (excluded volume) in which self-avoidance is unimportant…
The degree of symmetry of a combinatorial object, such as a lattice path, is a measure of how symmetric the object is. It typically ranges from zero, if the object is completely asymmetric, to its size, if it is completely symmetric. We…
We develop an algorithm computing the transcendental lattice and the Mordell--Weil group of an extremal elliptic surface. As an example, we compute the lattices of four exponentially large series of surfaces
We undertake a detailed study of the $L^2$ discrepancy of rational and irrational 2-dimensional lattices either with or without symmetrization. We give a full characterization of lattices with optimal $L^2$ discrepancy in terms of the…
We present model predictions for the spectrum of $CP^{N-1}$ in a periodic box and use them to interpret the strong finite size effects observed in lattice simulations at medium values of $N$. The asymptotic scaling behaviour of alternative…
We present a derivation of the finite-size formulae in a moving frame with total momentum P=(2\pi/L)(e1+e2). These formulae allow us to calculate the S-wave and P-wave scattering phases at more energies with a fixed lattice size and thus…
The extraction of two- and three-body hadronic scattering amplitudes and the properties of the low-lying hadronic resonances from the finite-volume energy levels in lattice QCD represents a rapidly developing field of research. The use of…
In this paper, we study the symplectic volume of the moduli space of polygons by using Witten's formula. We propose to use this volume as a measure for the flexibility of a polygon with fixed side-lengths. The main result of our is that…
If the structure of spacetime is discrete, then Lorentz symmetry should only be an approximation, valid at long length scales. At finite lattice spacings there will be small corrections to the Dirac evolution that could in principle be…
We measure the rotational statistics of neutrally buoyant rods with lengths $2.8 < l/\eta <72.9 $ in turbulence. For particles with length in the inertial range, we derive a scaling relationship for the mean square rotation rate, $<…
