We report updated results for $B_K$ using HYP-smeared staggered valence quarks on MILC asqtad lattices based on an analysis using SU(3) staggered chiral perturbation theory. The most important new feature of our data sample is the inclusion…
We calculate the kaon B-parameter, B_K, in chiral perturbation theory for a partially quenched, mixed action theory with Ginsparg-Wilson valence quarks and staggered sea quarks. We find that the resulting expression is similar to that in…

It is pointed out that there are some fundamental difficulties with the frequently used continuous-time formalism of the spin-coherent-state path integral. They arise already in a single-spin system and at the level of the "classical…
The twenty-one-vertex model, the spin $1$ analogue of the eight-vertex model is considered on the basis of free field representations of vertex operators in the $2\times 2$-fold fusion SOS model and vertex-face transformation. The tail…
Staggered formalism of lattice fermion can be cast into a form of direct product K-cycle in noncommutative geometry. The correspondence between this staggered K-cycle and a canonically defined K-cycle for finitely generated abelian group…

We calculate the kaon B-parameter, B_K, to next-to-leading order in staggered chiral perturbation theory. We find expressions for partially quenched QCD with three sea quarks, quenched QCD, and full QCD with m_u = m_d but not equal to m_s.…

The perfect action of free staggered fermions is calculated by blocking from the continuum for degenerate and non-degenerate flavor masses. The symmetry structure, connecting flavor transformations and translations, is explained directly…
In a previous paper we considered the most general field equations for a system of two fermions of which one single-handed, showing that the spin-torsion interactions among these spinors had the same structure of the electroweak forces…
We construct the spin formalism in order to deal in a direct and natural way with processes involving transversity which are now of increasing popularity. The helicity formalism which is more appropriate for collision processes of definite…

This talk summarizes the status of the calculations of $B_K$, $B_7$, $B_8$, and $B_s$, done in collaboration with T. Bhattacharya, G. Kilcup, and S. Sharpe. Results for staggered, Wilson, and Clover fermions are presented.
Utilizing a picture of string and string spinors, we show a simpler version of staggered action. The advantage of this action is that in this action there always exist pair of quarks with different masses.
We study three sources of error in our calculation of $B_K$ using HYP-smeared staggered fermions on the MILC asqtad lattices. These are (1) dependence on the light sea quark mass; (2) finite volume effects; and (3) the impact of an order of…
