We present preliminary results obtained using a new code for $SU (N_c)$ Yang-Mills theory which performs a 2-level sampling of glueball correlators obtained from a suitably chosen basis of (APE) smeared and unsmeared operators. The code…
We study quantum chromodynamics (QCD) on a finite lattice $\Lambda$ in the Hamiltonian approach. First, we present the field algebra ${\mathfrak A}_{\Lambda}$ as comprising a gluonic part, with basic building block being the crossed product…
We address the issue of glueball masses in a holographic dual field theory on the boundary of an AdS space deformed by a four-dimensional cosmological constant. These glueballs are related to scalar and tensorial fluctuations of the bulk…
We study tensor products of infinite dimensional representations (not corepresentations) of the $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ quantum group. Eigenvectors of certain self-adjoint elements are obtained, and coupling coefficients between different…
I review what lattice QCD simulations have to tell us about the glueball spectrum. Talk given at HEP97, Jerusalem, August 1997.
We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…
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…
We calculate the masses of the lowest lying eigenstates of improved SU(2), SU(3), SU(4) and SU(5) Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory (LGT) in 2+1 dimensions using an analytic variational approach. The ground state is approximated by a one…
Motivated by the desire to construct meson-meson operators of definite relative momentum in order to study resonances in lattice QCD, we present a set of single-meson interpolating fields at non-zero momentum that respect the reduced…
The vast majority of mesons can be understood as quark-antiquark states. Yet, various other possibilities exists: glueballs (bound-state of gluons), hybrids (quark-antiquark plus gluon), and four-quark states (either as diquark-antidiquark…
Lattice gauge calculations predict the existence of glueballs. In particular a scalar glueball is firmly expected at a mass of about 1730 MeV. This prediction has led to an intense study of scalar isoscalar interactions and to the discovery…
We discuss the relevance of long wavelength excitations for the low energy spectrum of QCD, and try to develop an efficient method for solving the Schrodinger equation, and for extracting the glueball masses and long wavelength functions of…
This paper is a contribution to harmonic analysis of compact solvmanifolds. We consider the four-dimensional oscillator group ${\rm Osc}_1$, which is a semi-direct product of the three-dimensional Heisenberg group and the real line. We…
We present a novel lattice calculation of the equation of state of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in the confining phase. We show that a gas of massive, non-interacting glueballs describes remarkably well the results, provided that a bosonic…
The static potentials for quark-antiquark-gluon and 3-gluon systems are computed with lattice QCD methods. For the quark-antiquark-gluon hybrid meson the static potential is obtained for different values of the angle between the quark-gluon…
The Maldacena conjecture that QCD is holographically dual to gravity in extra dimensions is briefly reviewed. On the basis of this duality conjecture, the complete glueball spectrum is computed which bares a striking resemblance to the…
Recently various new concepts for the construction of Dirac operators in lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) have been introduced. These operators satisfy the so-called Ginsparg-Wilson condition (GWC), thus obeying the Atiyah-Singer index…
It is shown that new data on the $(J^{PC}=2^{++})$-resonances in the mass range $M\sim1700-2400 $MeV support the linearity of the $(n,M^2)$-trajectories, where $n$ is the radial quantum number of quark--antiquark state. In this way all…
An extended two-hadron operator is developed to extract the spectra of irreducible representations (irreps) in the finite volume. The irreps of the group for the finite volume system are projected using a coordinate-space operator. The…
We provide outstanding numerical evidence that in large-N massless QCD the joint spectrum of the masses squared, for fixed integer spin s and unspecified parity and charge conjugation, obeys exactly the following laws: m_k^2 = (k+s/2)…
