I review some of the contributions which lattice simulations are likely to make during the next five years or so to the development of our understanding of particle physics. Particular emphasis is given to the evaluation of non-perturbative…
Recent trends in lattice QCD calculations and latest results are reviewed, with particular emphasis on multiquark-states and the nucleon structure.

In this letter we give the equation of state of QCD at finite temperatures and densities. The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used to determine observables at nonvanishing chemical potentials.…
Several topics in hadron physics at different scales of resolution are discussed. First, deep-inelastic scattering from nucleons and nuclei is viewed in a light-cone coordinate space picture. Then the smooth transition from parton to hadron…
Recently evidence has been found that the perturbative QCD potential agrees well with phenomenological potentials and lattice computations of the QCD potential. We review the present status of the perturbative QCD potential and theoretical…
We determine from first principles the quark mass anomalous dimension in Nf=3 QCD between the electroweak and hadronic scales. This allows for a fully non-perturbative connection of the perturbative and non-perturbative regimes of the…
Simulations of QCD are known to suffer from serious critical slowing down towards the continuum limit. This is particularly prominent in the topological charge. We investigate the severeness of the problem in the range of lattice spacings…

Understanding the behavior of dense hadronic matter is a central goal in nuclear physics as it governs the nature and dynamics of astrophysical objects such as supernovae and neutron stars. Because of the non-perturbative nature of quantum…

It has been known for a long time that large-$N$ methods can give invaluable insights into non-perturbative phenomena such as confinement. Lattice techniques can be used to compute quantities at large $N$. In this contribution, I review…
I review recent progress in the determination of the QCD phase diagram at finite temperature, in investigations of the nature of the transition or crossover from the hadronic phase to the quark-gluon plasma phase and in the determination of…
Using the language of non-relativistic effective Lagrangians, we formulate a systematic framework for the calculation of resonance matrix elements in lattice QCD. The generalization of the L\"uscher-Lellouch formula for these matrix…
At the LHC all processes are QCD ones, whether "signal" or "background". In this review the frontiers of current QCD research are addressed, towards increased understanding, improved calculational precision, and role in potential future…
Recent studies have claimed that the strong $CP$ problem does not occur in QCD, proposing a new order of limits in volume and topological sectors when studying observables on the lattice. We study the effect of the topological term on a…
