We compute the isospin $I= 0$ and 2 amplitudes for the decay of a kaon into two pions by estimating the relevant hadronic matrix elements in the chiral quark model. The results are parametrized in terms of the quark and gluon condensates…
We present results of several numerical studies with Wilson fermions relevant for kaon physics. We compute the B_K parameter by using two different methods and extrapolate to the continuum limit. Our preliminary result is B_K(2…
We perform a complete analysis of isospin breaking in K -> Pi Pi amplitudes in chiral perturbation theory, including both strong isospin violation and electromagnetic corrections to next-to-leading order in the low-energy expansion. The…
The use of chiral perturbation theory in extracting physical K to pi pi matrix elements from matrix elements calculated at unphysical kinematics is outlined. In particular, the possibility of utilizing pions with non-zero momentum in the…
We present a new method for determining K --> pi pi matrix elements from lattice simulations that is less costly than direct simulations of K --> pi pi at physical kinematics. It improves, however, upon the traditional "indirect'' approach…
We present a calculation of the $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes from the $K\to\pi$ matrix elements using leading order relations derived in chiral perturbation theory. Numerical simulations are carried out in quenched QCD with the domain-wall…
We report on some recent progress made in understanding weak matrix elements of mesons in the context of the next-to-leading order of the large-Nc approximation to QCD. Specifically, we first use the example of the weak contributions to the…
We present our preliminary results for the $\Delta I = 1/2$ matrix elements of $K\to\pi\pi$ decay and $\varepsilon'$, the measure of direct $CP$ violation in $K\to\pi\pi$, computed on multiple ensembles with periodic boundary conditions…
Following the recent analysis done in collaboration with Jason Aebischer and Christoph Bobeth, I summarize the optimal, in our view, strategy for the present evaluation of the ratio $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ in the Standard Model (SM). In…
We perform for the first time a direct calculation of on-shell $K\to\pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements of chromomagnetic operators (CMO) in the Standard Model and beyond. To his end, we use the successful Dual QCD (DQCD) approach in which we…
This thesis presents the setup and results of numerical calculation of hadronic matrix elements of Delta S=1 weak operators, with the aim of studying the Delta I=1/2 rule and direct CP violation. Such study provides a useful comparison of…
We present a detailed analysis of epsilon'/epsilon within the Standard Model, taking into account the strong enhancement through final-state interactions identified in refs. [1] and [2]. The relevant hadronic matrix elements are fixed at…
A number of old and new methods for computing $K\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes on the lattice are reevaluated. They all involve a non-perturbative determination of matching coefficients. I will show how problems related to operator mixing can be…
In this short review, I present the recent lattice computations of kaon weak matrix elements relevant to $K \to \pi\pi$ decays and neutral kaon mixing. These matrix elements are key to the theoretical determination of the CP violation…
We discuss direct $CP$ violation in the standard model by giving a new estimate of $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ in kaon decays. Our analysis is based on the evaluation of the hadronic matrix elements of the \mbox{$\Delta S =1$} effective…
Recent progress in the determination of hadronic matrix elements has revealed a tension between the measured value of $\epsilon_K^{\prime}/\epsilon_K$, which quantifies direct $CP$ violation in $K \to \pi\pi$ decays, and the Standard-Model…
We have used domain wall fermions to calculate $K \to \pi$ and $K \to 0$ matrix elements which can be used to study the $\Delta I = 1/2$ rule for K decays in the Standard Model. Nonlinearities in the $\Delta I = 3/2$ matrix elements due to…
We explore application of the domain wall fermion formalism of lattice QCD to calculate the $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes in terms of the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ hadronic matrix elements through relations derived in chiral perturbation…
We calculate results for K to pi and K to 0 matrix elements to next-to-leading order in 2+1 flavor partially quenched chiral perturbation theory. Results are presented for both the Delta I=1/2 and 3/2 channels, for chiral operators…
We analyze the theoretical implications of the new KTeV measurement of direct CP-violation in K->pi pi decays. The result is found consistent with the Standard Model for low values of the strange quark mass m_s. If the hadronic parameters…
