In this contribution we describe a recent study focused on the lattice calculation of inclusive decay rates of heavy mesons. We show how the inclusive calculation can be achieved starting from four-point lattice correlation functions…
Lattice sums of cuboidal lattices, which connect the face-centered with the mean-centered and the body-centered cubic lattices through parameter dependent lattice vectors, are evaluated by decomposing them into two separate lattice sums…
We present a study of lattice-QCD methods to determine the relevant hadronic form factors for radiative leptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons. We provide numerical results for $D_s^+ \to \ell^+ \nu \gamma$. Our calculation is performed…
We introduce the ``Sequential Empirical Bayes Method'', an adaptive constrained-curve fitting procedure for extracting reliable priors. These are then used in standard augmented-chi-square fits on separate data. This better stabilizes fits…
A simplified test of universality in Lattice QCD is performed by analytically evaluating the continuous Euclidean time limits of various lattice fermion determinants, both with and without a Wilson term to lift the fermion doubling on the…
Master-field simulations offer an approach to lattice QCD in which calculations are performed on a small number of large-volume gauge-field configurations. The latter is advantageous for simulations in which the global topological charge is…
Lattice QCD can contribute to the search for new physics in b -> s decays by providing first-principle calculations of B -> K(*) form factors. Preliminary results are presented here which complement sum rule determinations by being done at…
The lattice technique of studying the strong interaction of matter is used to obtain predictions of the hadronic spectrum. These simulations were performed by the UKQCD collaboration using full (unquenched) QCD. Details of the results, a…
We study the critical slowing down towards the continuum limit of lattice QCD simulations with Hybrid Monte Carlo type algorithms. In particular for the squared topological charge we find it to be very severe with an effective dynamical…
In these lectures, I describe the techniques used within the QCD sum rule approach. The basic concepts of the approach are introduced using a simple model of quantum-mechanical oscillator in 2+1 dimensions. Then I discuss their…
A novel application of lattice QCD spectral reconstruction is presented, in which euclidean correlation function data in a fixed time range are used to infer values outside the range, enabling a model-independent investigation of the…
The first exploratory calculations of QCD vacuum correlation functions on a lattice are reported. Qualitative agreement with phenomenological results is obtained in channels for which experimental data are available, and these correlation…
Lattice QCD was invented thirty years ago but only in the last few years has it finally fulfilled its promise as a precision tool for calculations in hadron physics. This review will cover the fundamentals of discretising QCD onto a…
Lattice simulations of QCD have produced precise estimates for the masses of the lowest-lying hadrons which show excellent agreement with experiment. By contrast, lattice results for the vector and axial vector form factors of the nucleon…
Two field-sparsening methods, namely the sparse-grid method and the random field selection method, are used in this paper for the construction of the 2-point and 3-point correlation functions in lattice QCD. We argue that, due to the high…
A recently developed lattice method for large numbers of strongly interacting nonrelativistic fermions exhibits a heavy tail in the distributions of correlators for large Euclidean time {\tau} and large number of fermions N, which only…
I present an overview of the calculations of the isovector axial vector form factor of the nucleon, $G_A(Q^2)$, using lattice QCD. Based on a comparison of results from various collaborations, a case is made that lattice results are now…
Finite density systems can be explored with Lattice QCD through the calculation of multi-hadron correlation functions. Recently, systems with up to 12 $\pi^+$'s or $K^+$'s have been studied to determine the 3-$\pi^+$ and 3-$K^+$…
State-of-the-art lattice QCD studies of hot and dense strongly interacting matter currently rely on extrapolation from zero or imaginary chemical potentials. The ill-posedness of numerical analytic continuation puts severe limitations on…
The evaluation of the interaction between objects arranged on a lattice requires the computation of lattice sums. A scenario frequently encountered are systems governed by the Helmholtz equation in the context of electromagnetic scattering…
