Lattice QCD already offers the possibility of extracting three-hadron scattering quantities from first principles. In the last few years, significant progress has been achieved in developing and applying the finite-volume three-body…
The use of Heavy Quark Symmetry to study bottom and charmed baryons leads to important simplifications of the non-relativistic three body problem, which turns out to be easily solved by a simple variational ansatz. Our simple scheme…
It is often assumed that few- and many-body systems can be accurately described by considering only pairwise two-body interactions of the constituents. We illustrate that three- and higher-body forces enter naturally in effective field…
Potential-NRQCD offers an effective-theory based approach to heavy-quark physics. While meson Q-anti_Q computations are tractable in pure alpha_s-perturbation theory, more complex many-body quark systems transcend it. A possibility…
We investigate the structure of heavy baryons containing a charm or a bottom quark. We employ a constituent quark model successful in the description of the baryon-baryon interaction which is consistent with the light baryon spectra. We…
In light of a new experiment which claims an identification of tetraneutron [3], we discuss the results of experimental search of trineutron and tetraneutron in different nuclear reactions. A summary of theoretical studies for trineutron…

The resonance energies of strange dibaryons are investigated with the use of the \bar{K}NN-\pi Y N coupled-channels Faddeev equation. It is found that the pole positions of the predicted three-body amplitudes are significantly modified when…
The three-neutron ($3n$) system is studied by numerical calculations with the Faddeev three-body formalism for a realistic nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential. A response function for the transition from ${}^3\mathrm{H}$ to $3n$ continuum states…
We study the low energy part of the nucleon and $\Delta$ spectra by solving the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for the three-quark system in the hyperspherical harmonic approach. The quark-quark hamiltonian considered includes, besides the usual…
We present a generalization of the hyperspherical harmonic formalism to study systems made of quarks and antiquarks of the same flavor. This generalization is based on the symmetrization of the $N-$body wave function with respect to the…
Based on a three-potential formalism we propose mathematically well-behaved Faddeev-type integral equations for the atomic three-body problem and descibe their solutions in Coulomb-Sturmian space representation. Although the system contains…
We derive covariant equations describing the tetraquark in terms of an admixture of two-body states $D\bar D$ (diquark-antidiquark), $MM$ (meson-meson), and three-body-like states $q\bar q (T_{q\bar q})$, $q q (T_{\bar q\bar q})$, and $\bar…
A study of 3-body resonances has been performed in the framework of configuration space Faddeev equations. The importance of keeping a sufficient number of terms in the asymptotic expansion of the resonance wave function is pointed out. We…
In nuclear physics, triton and helium-3 nucleus can be understood as three-body hadronic molecules. Analogous to the loosely bound structures for the triton and helium-3 nucleus, whether there is a bound state formed by three hadrons leaves…
We propose a new treatment for the quantum three-body problem. It is based on an expansion of the wave function on harmonic oscillator functions with different sizes in the Jacobi coordinates. The matrix elements of the Hamiltonian can be…

To obtain an exact solution of a four-body system containing two quarks and two antiquarks interacting through two-body terms is a cumbersome task that has been tackled with more or less success during the last decades. We present an exact…
We propose an elegant formulation of parafermionic algebra and parasupersymmetry of arbitrary order in quantum many-body systems without recourse to any specific matrix representation of parafermionic operators and any kind of deformed…
Recent experimental results in three-body systems have unambiguously shown that calculations based on nucleon-nucleon forces fail to accurately describe many experimental observables and one needs to include effects which are beyond the…
