Lattice QCD simulations provide a promising way to disentangle different interpretations of hadronic resonances, which might be of particular relevance to understand the nature of the so-called $XYZ$ particles. Recent studies have shown…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the low energy constants of the leading order chiral Lagrangian. In these simulations the epsilon regime is reached by using tree-level improved nHYP Wilson fermions combined with reweighting in the…
We propose a random matrix model that interpolates between the chiral random matrix ensembles and the chiral Poisson ensemble. By mapping this model on a non-interacting Fermi-gas we show that for energy differences less than a critical…
We study the |Delta I|=3/2 amplitudes of hyperon non-leptonic decays of the form B->B'+pi in the context of chiral perturbation theory. The lowest-order predictions are determined in terms of only one unknown parameter and are consistent…

We use a twice-subtracted partial-wave dispersion relation in the elastic unitarity approximation for final-state interactions to study the amplitude for the delta I = 1/2 CP-conserving weak process K+spurion->pi+pi. We use a simple…
We report the Standard Model evaluation of the indirect CP violation parameter $\varepsilon_K$ using inputs determined from lattice QCD: the kaon bag parameter $\hat{B}_K$, $\xi_0$, $|V_{us}|$ from the $K_{\ell 3}$ and $K_{\mu 2}$ decays,…
We report on a calculation of epsilon'/epsilon at next-to-leading in the 1/N_c expansion and to lowest order in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We also discuss the chiral corrections to our results and give the result of including the two known…
Using Chiral Perturbation Theory to properly account for the dynamics of nonleptonic $K\to 2\,\pi$ decays, we found the Standard Model prediction for the CP violating ratio $\mbox{Re}\left(\varepsilon'/\varepsilon\right)=\left(14\pm…
A simulation of lattice QCD at (or even below) the physical pion mass is feasible on a small lattice size of \sim 2 fm. The results are, however, subject to large finite volume effects. In order to precisely understand the chiral behavior…
We review the theory of epsilon'/epsilon and present an updated phenomenological analysis using hadronic matrix elements from lattice QCD. The present status of the computation of epsilon'/epsilon, considering various approaches to the…
The results of a high-statistics study of scalar and pseudoscalar meson propagators in quenched lattice QCD are presented. For two values of lattice spacing, $\beta=5.7$ ($a \approx .18$ fm) and 5.9 ($a \approx .12$ fm), we probe the light…
It is possible to improve the chiral behaviour and the approach to the continuum limit of correlation functions in lattice QCD with standard and twisted Wilson fermions by taking arithmetic averages of correlators computed in theories…
The order parameter of the chiral phase transition is directly related to the infrared part of the spectrum of the QCD Dirac operator. This part of the spectrum follows from the low energy limit of QCD which is given by a partition function…
We present a recent analysis of epsilon'/epsilon in the 1/N_c expansion. We show that the 1/N_c corrections to the matrix element of Q_6 are large and positive, indicating a Delta I = 1/2 enhancement similar to the one of Q_1 and Q_2 which…
I present the QCD short distance coefficient $\eta_3$ of the $\Delta S=2$ hamiltonian in the \emph{next-to-leading order} (NLO) of renormalization group improved perturbation theory. Since now all QCD-factors $\eta_1$, $\eta_2$ and $\eta_3$…

First we extract the long-distance (LD) weak matrix element from certain data and give compatible theoretical estimates. We also link this LD scale to the single-quark-line (SQL) transition scale and then test the latter SQL scale against…
