Spectral densities from Euclidean-time lattice correlation functions

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2025-01-29 v1

Abstract

In quantum field theories, spectral densities are directly related to relevant physical observables. In Lattice QCD, their non-perturbative extraction from first principles requires the Inverse Laplace transform of Euclidean-time correlation functions, a notorious ill-posed problem. Here we review our recent proposal [1,2] for a new strategy to perform this inversion both in the continuum and on the lattice, also suitable for smeared spectral densities, both in the continuum and in the discrete cases.
