We determine the improvement factor $c_{SW}$ in one-loop lattice perturbation theory for the plaquette and Symanzik improved gauge actions. The fermionic action is ${\mathcal{O}(a)}$ clover improved with one-time stout smearing. $c_{SW}$ is…

Enhanced tensor field theories (eTFT) have dominant graphs that differ from the melonic diagrams of conventional tensor field theories. They therefore describe pertinent candidates to escape the so-called branched polymer phase, the…
We compute the renormalization functions on the lattice, in the RI' scheme, of local bilinear quark operators $\bar{\psi}\Gamma\psi$, where $\Gamma= 1, \gamma_5, \gamma_\mu, \gamma_5\gamma_\mu, \gamma_5\sigma_{\mu\nu}$. This calculation is…
The $I=\frac{3}{2}$ $\pi K$ $s$-wave scattering phase shift is computed by lattice quantum chromodynamics with $N_f=3$ flavors of Asqtad-improved staggered fermions. The energy-eigenvalues of $\pi K$ systems at one center of mass frame and…
