We discuss a mapping of lattice QED with two flavors and a chemical potential to dual variables, which are surfaces for the gauge fields and loops for the fermions. The gauge fields are completely dualized and the corresponding dual…
Using Wilson fermions, we study SU(2) lattice QCD with the chemical potential at $\beta=1.6$. The ratio of fermion determinants is evaluated at each Metropolis link update step. We calculate the baryon number density, the Polyakov loops and…

Using a nonperturbative method based on asymptotic behaviour of Wilson loops we calculate masses of glueballs and corresponding Regge-trajectories. The only input is string tension fixed by meson Regge slope, while perturbative…
Assuming that the Casimir scaling hypothesis is well verified in QCD, masses of glueballs and hybrid gluelumps (gluon with a point-like $c\bar c$ pair) are computed within the rotating string formalism. In our model, two gluons are attached…
The three-gluon glueball states are studied with the generalization of a semirelativistic potential model giving good results for two-gluon glueballs. The Hamiltonian depends only on 3 parameters fixed on two-gluon glueball spectra: the…
In the last decade, lattice QCD has been able to compute the low-lying glueball spectrum with accuracy. Like other effective approaches of QCD, potential models still have difficulties to cope with gluonic hadrons. Assuming that glueballs…
In a model with dynamical gluon mass, we investigate the bound states of two and three gluons via a Schr\"odinger equation. The short distance potential is approximated by one-gluon-exchange while the long distance part is assumed to be of…
We report on our simulation of finite temperature lattice QCD with two flavors of ${\cal O}(a)$ Symanzik-improved fermions and ${\cal O}(a^2)$ Symanzik-improved glue. Our thermodynamic simulations were performed on an $8^3 \times 4$…
We present a status report on simulations being done on $32^3 \times 64$ lattices at $\beta = 6.0$ using quenched Wilson fermions. Results for the spectrum, decay constants, the kaon B-parameter $B_K$, and semi-leptonic form factors are…
We present results of a lattice simulation of quantum chromodynamics with two degenerate flavors of dynamic Wilson fermions at $6/g^2=5.3$ at each of two dynamical fermion hopping parameters, $\kappa=0.1670$ and 0.1675, corresponding to…
We study glueballs on two $N_f=2+1$ RBC/UKQCD gauge ensembles with physical quark masses at two lattice spacings. The statistical uncertainties of the glueball correlation functions are considerably reduced through the cluster decomposition…
We present a performance comparison of the Kramers equation and the boson algorithms for simulations of QCD with two flavors of dynamical Wilson fermions and gauge group $SU(2)$. Results are obtained on $6^312$, $8^312$ and $16^4$ lattices.…
We evaluate the infinite volume, continuum limit of glueball masses in the valence (quenched) approximation to lattice QCD. For the lightest states with $J^{PC}$ of $0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$, we obtain $m_0 = 1340 \pm 160$ MeV and $m_2 = 1900…
Recent numerical calculations of the glueball spectrum in QCD, in SU($N$) Yang-Mills theory in the large-$N$ limit and in candidate theories of strongly interacting dynamics beyond the standard model (in which the lowest-lying scalar plays…

Nonperturbative QCD approach is systematically derived starting from the QCD Lagrangian. Treating spin effects as a perturbation, one obtains the universal effective Hamiltonian describing mesons, hybrids and glueballs. Constituent mass of…
The masses of pure gauge glueballs are calculated with the use of relativistic string Hamiltonian without fitting parameters. The string tension $\sigma_f=0.184$~GeV$^2$ in fundamental representation is fixed, using the Necco-Sommer lattice…
We study the perfect monopole action as an infrared effective theory of SU(2) QCD. It is transformed exactly into a lattice string model. Since the monopole interactions are weak in the infrared SU(2) QCD, the string interactions become…
