Lattice QCD calculations of disconnected quark loop operators are extremely computer time-consuming to evaluate. To compute these diagrams using lattice techniques, one generally uses stochastic noise methods. These employ a randomly…
A comparison of the noise variance between algorithms for calculating disconnected loop signals in lattice QCD is carried out. The methods considered are the Z(N) noise method and the Volume method. We find that the noise variance is…
The polynomial subtraction method, a new numerical approach for reducing the noise variance of Lattice QCD disconnected matrix elements calculation, is introduced in this paper. We use the MinRes polynomial expansion of the QCD matrix as…
The effects of an automated, tenth order in $\kappa$ subtraction scheme on the noise variance of various Wilson QCD disconnected matrix elements are examined. It is found that there is a dramatic reduction in the variance of the lattice…
Noise subtraction techniques can help reduce the statistical uncertainty in the extraction of hard to detect signals. We describe new noise subtraction methods in Lattice QCD which apply to disconnected diagram evaluations. Some of the…
Disconnected diagrams give crucial contributions to the physics of flavor singlet hadrons and to scalar form factors of non-singlet hadrons. Naive lattice calculation of the disconnected diagrams, however, requires a huge number of fermion…
In a full QCD lattice study with $N_f = 2$ Wilson fermions, we seek to optimize the signals for the disconnected contributions to the matrix element of flavour-singlet operators between nucleon states, which are indicative for sea quark…
We explore the possibility of computing fermionic correlators on the lattice by combining a domain decomposition with a multi-level integration scheme. The quark propagator is expanded in series of terms with a well defined hierarchical…
We numerically study QCD with a single quark flavour on the lattice probing predictions from effective field theories that are equivalent to minimal super-symmetric Yang-Mills theory in the large $N_c$ limit. The hadronic spectrum including…
Noise subtraction methods are a set of techniques that aim to reduce the variance of signals in LQCD which are often flooded with noise. The standard approach is a pertubative subtraction. In this work, we demonstrate the abilities of our…
We propose a new noise subtraction method, which we call "eigenspectrum subtraction", which uses low eigenmode information to suppress statistical noise at low quark mass. This is useful for lattice calculations involving disconnected loops…
Flavor singlet combinations of quark operators ${\cal{O}}_S^{\Gamma} = \bar{u}\Gamma u + \bar{d}\Gamma d + \bar{s}\Gamma s$ contribute to many important physical observables in the low energy region of QCD. Experimentally one finds the…
In these proceedings we address the computation of quark-line disconnected diagrams in lattice QCD. The evaluation of these diagrams is required for many phenomenologically interesting observables, but suffers from large statistical errors…
We investigate the low-lying eigenvalues of the improved Wilson-Dirac operator in the Schroedinger functional with two dynamical quark flavors. At a lattice spacing of approximately 0.1 fm we find more very small eigenvalues than in the…
Many Lattice QCD observables of phenomenological interest include so-called all-to-all propagators. The computation of these requires prohibitively large computational resources, unless they are estimated stochastically. This is usually…
We study the possible significance of four-quark states in the iso-singlet scalar mesons ($J^{PC}=0^{++}$, $I=0$) by performing two-flavor full lattice QCD simulations on an $8^3 \times 16$ lattice using the improved gauge action and the…
We study the flavour breaking effects appearing in the Wilson twisted mass formulation of lattice QCD. In this quenched study, we focus on the mass splitting between the neutral and the charged pion, determining the neutral pion mass with a…
We perform a high statistics calculation of disconnected fermion loops on Graphics Processing Units for a range of nucleon matrix elements extracted using lattice QCD. The isoscalar electromagnetic and axial vector form factors, the…
We study the large-N volume reduction of QCD with adjoint quarks regularized on the lattice. Specifically, we use Wilson fermions, and while our d-dimensional lattice has (d-1) infinite dimensions, the remaining direction is reduced to a…
Recently, random matrix theory predictions for the distribution of low-lying Dirac operator eigenvalues have been extended to include lattice effects for both staggered and Wilson fermions. We computed low-lying eigenvalues for the…
