Muon g-2 with overlap valence fermions
We present a lattice calculation of the leading order (LO) hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment for the connected light and strange quarks, $a^{\rm W}_{{\rm con}, l/s}$ in the widely used window $t_0=0.4~\mathrm{fm}$, $t_1=1.0~\mathrm{fm}$, $Δ=0.15~\mathrm{fm}$, and also of $a^{\rm S}_{{\rm con}, l/s}$ in the short distance region. We use overlap fermions on 4 physical-point ensembles. Two 2+1 flavor RBC/UKQCD ensembles use domain wall fermions (DWF) and Iwasaki gauge actions at $a = 0.084$ and 0.114 fm, and two 2+1+1 flavor MILC ensembles use the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) and Symanzik gauge actions at $a = 0.088$ and 0.121 fm. We have incorporated infinite volume corrections from 3 additional DWF ensembles at ${\rm L}$ = 4.8, 6.4 and 9.6 fm and physical pion mass. For $a^{\rm W}_{{\rm con}, l}$, we find that our results on the two smaller lattice spacings are consistent with those using the unitary setup, but those at the two coarser lattice spacings are slightly different. Eventually, we predict $a^{\rm W}_{{\rm con}, l}=206.7(1.5)(1.0)$ and $a^{\rm W}_{{\rm con}, s}=26.8(0.1)(0.3)$, using linear extrapolation in $a^2$, with systematic uncertainties estimated from the difference of the central values from the RBC/UKQCD and MILC ensembles.
