The Yang-Mills gradient flow for QCD-like theories is generalized by including a fermionic matter term in the gauge field flow equation. We combine this with two different flow equations for the fermionic degrees of freedom. The solutions…

The Yang--Mills gradient flow has many interesting applications in lattice QCD. In this talk, some recent and possible future uses of the flow are discussed, emphasizing the underlying theoretical concepts rather than any computational…

The Yang--Mills gradient flow and its extension to the fermion field provide a very general method to obtain renormalized observables in gauge theory. The method is applicable also with non-perturbative regularization such as lattice. The…

There are currently two singularity-free universal expressions for the topological susceptibility in QCD, one based on the Yang-Mills gradient flow and the other on density-chain correlation functions. While the latter link the…

The realization of center and chiral symmetries in $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Yang-Mills theory (SYM) is investigated on a four-dimensional Euclidean lattice by means of Monte Carlo methods. At zero temperature this theory is expected to confine…

In this proceedings contribution we will review the main ideas behind the many recent works that apply the gradient flow to the determination of the renormalized coupling and the renormalization of composite operators. We will pay special…

As a non-perturbative and gauge invariant regularization the lattice provides a tool for deeper understanding of the celebrated Yang-Mills theory, QCD and chiral gauge theories. For illustration, I discuss some analytic developments on the…

In lattice QCD with Wilson-type quarks, the chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by the Wilson term on finite lattices. Though the symmetry is guaranteed to recover in the continuum limit, a series of non-trivial procedures are required to…

We generalize the gradient flow equation for field theories with nonlinearly realized symmetry. Applying the formalism to super Yang-Mills theory, we construct a supersymmetric extension of the gradient flow equation. It can be shown that…

In K.~Hieda, A.~Kasai, H.~Makino, and H.~Suzuki, Prog.\ Theor.\ Exp.\ Phys.\ \textbf{2017}, 063B03 (2017), a properly normalized supercurrent in the four-dimensional (4D) $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Yang--Mills theory (SYM) that works within…

The gradient-flow formalism is applied to a non-Abelian gauge theory with scalar and fermionic particles, dubbed "scalar QCD". It is shown that the flowed scalar quark requires a field renormalization, albeit only beyond the one-loop level.…

We compute the renormalization group flow of the mass anomalous dimension in adjoint QCD with $N_{f}=1$, $3/2$, and 2 Dirac fermions, using the gradient flow. Preliminary results are in agreement with at least a near-conformal scenario in…

We propose a generalization of the gradient flow equation for quantum field theories with nonlinearly realized symmetry. Applying the equation to $\mathcal{N}=1$ $SU(N)$ super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions, we construct a…

Normalizing flows can be used to construct unbiased, reduced-variance estimators for lattice field theory observables that are defined by a derivative with respect to action parameters. This work implements the approach for observables…

The Yang-Mills gradient flow and the observable E(t), defined by the square of the field strength tensor at t>0, are calculated at finite lattice spacing and tree-level in the gauge coupling. Improvement of the flow, the gauge action and…

We use the Yang-Mills gradient flow to calculate the pseudo-scalar expansion coefficient $c_P^*(t_f)$. This quantity is a key ingredient to obtaining the chiral condensate and strange quark content of the nucleon using the Lattice QCD…

Non-perturbative renormalization group approach to the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is an effective method which can accommodate beyond the ladder (mean filed) approximation. The usual method relying on the field operator expansion…

We determine the non-perturbative corrections to the gauge coupling constant and the topological charge in the Yang Mills theory. The method makes no explicit use of instanton calculations but instead relies on boundary properties of the…

The Yang-Mills gradient flow is considered on the four dimensional torus T^4 for SU(N) gauge theory coupled to N_f flavors of massless fermions in arbitrary representations. The small volume dynamics is dominated by the constant gauge…

Using finite size scaling techniques and a renormalization scheme based on the Gradient Flow, we determine non-perturbatively the $\beta$-function of the $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory for a range of renormalized couplings $\bar g^2\sim 1-12$.…
