This doctoral thesis focuses on the application of lattice techniques to study two separate topics: hadron interactions within quantum chromodynamics (QCD), and the emission of particles and gravitational waves (GWs) from cosmic string…
We summarize the findings of our Working Group, which discussed progress in the understanding of Chiral Dynamics in the A=2, 3, and 4 systems over the last three years. We also identify key unresolved theoretical and experimental questions…
Three dimensional Thirring model with $N$ four-component Dirac fermions, reformulated as a lattice gauge theory, is studied by computer simulation. According to an $8^{3}$ data and preliminary $16^3$ data, chiral symmetry is found to be…

We describe a first attempt to understand dynamical fermions within a Hamiltonian framework. As a testing ground we study compact QED3 which shares some important features of QCD4 such as confinement, glueballs, mesons, and chiral symmetry…
These notes contain the written version of lectures given at the 2009 Les Houches Summer School "Modern perspectives in lattice QCD: Quantum field theory and high performance computing." The goal is to provide a pedagogical introduction to…
A recently proposed method for regularizing chiral gauge theories non-perturbatively is discussed in detail. The result is an effective action which can be computed from the lattice gauge field, and which is suited for numerical…

We study some properties of the non-Abelian vacuum induced by strong external magnetic field. We perform calculations in the quenched SU(3) lattice gauge theory with tadpole-improved Luscher-Weisz action and chirally invariant lattice Dirac…
I review the problem of formulating chiral symmetry in lattice gauge theory. I discuss recent approaches involving an infinite tower of additional heavy states to absorb Fermion doublers. For hadronic physics this provides a natural scheme…
In this paper, we present the recent progress on minimally doubled lattice actions. In particular, we discuss the proposal of Creutz and its variations on an orthogonal lattice. A preliminary computation of the pion mass on an SU(3)…
We review recent progress on the lattice simulations of the chiral magnetic effect. There are two different approaches to analyze the chiral magnetic effect on the lattice. In one approach, the charge density distribution or the current…

A few subjects which strongly intertwine our field are discussed: K --> Pi Pi decay, chiral symmetry on the lattice and a few other selected topics. Open questions are touched also on perturbation theory, locality, Gribov copies, CP…
We give here the contents pages for the Proceedings of the Lattice 2001 conference (19th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory) that took place in August 2001 in Berlin, Germany. The contents are in HTML form with clickable links…
The dynamics of chiral nuclei is investigated for the first time with the time-dependent and tilted axis cranking covariant density functional theories on a three-dimensional space lattice in a microscopic and self-consistent way. The…
