Contribution of disconnected diagrams to the hyperfine splitting of charmonium

We discuss the contribution of OZI-suppressed diagrams to the hyperfine splitting of charmonium in lattice QCD. We study valence quark mass regions from strange to charm quark masses. No contribution of the disconnected diagram is seen in the vector meson channel. In the pseudo-scalar channel and for valence quark masses around the strange quark, the disconnected contribution induces a considerable increase of the meson mass. This contribution quickly decreases as the quark mass increases. For charmonium the effect is very small although a decrease of the pseudoscalar mass induced by the disconnected contribution cannot be ruled out.

Hadronic property at finite density

We report on three topics on finite density simulations: (i) the derivative method for hadronic quantities, (ii) phase fluctuations in the vicinity of the critical temperature and (iii) the density of states method at finite isospin density.

Density of States Method at Finite Isospin Density

The density of states method is applied for lattice QCD at a finite isospin density. The advantage of this method is that one can easily obtain results for various values of parameters (quark mass, coupling constant and the number of flavors). We compare results for the chiral condensate and the quark number density with those from the R-algorithm and find that they are in good agreement. By calculating the chiral condensate we obtain information on the phase structure for various quark flavors and isospin chemical potentials. We also show results for the chiral condensate at two different quark masses and at two different isospin densities which are not easily obtainable in the conventional Monte Carlo method.

Nf=1 QCD simulation with improved gauge action at finite temperature

We study the deconfinement transition of $N_f=1$ QCD by the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm with Wilson fermions. We calculate the Polyakov loop, its susceptibility and Binder cumulant and use the $χ^2$ method to locate the phase transition point. Our results are similar to the previous results obtained by the multiboson algorithm.

Lattice QCD at Finite Density -- An introductory review

This is a pedagogical review of the lattice study of finite density QCD, which is intended to provide the minimum necessary contents, so that the paper may be used as the first reading for a newcomer to the field and also for those working in nonlattice communities. After a brief introduction to argue why finite density QCD can be a new attractive subject, we describe fundamental formulae which are necessary for the following sections. Then we survey lattice QCD simulations in small chemical potential regions, where several prominent works have been reported recently. Next, two-color QCD calculations are discussed, where we have a chance to glance at many new features of finite density QCD, and indeed recent simulations indicated quark pair condensation and the in-medium effect. Tables of SU(3) and SU(2) lattice simulations at finite baryon density are given. In the next section, we make a survey of several related works which may be a starting point of the new development in the future, although some works do not attract much attention now. Materials are described in a pedagogical manner. Starting from a simple 2-d model, we briefly discuss a lattice analysis of NJL model. We describe a non-perturbative analytical approach, i.e., strong coupling approximation method and some results. Canonical ensemble approach instead of usual grand canonical ensample may be another route to reach high density. We examine the density of state method and show this old idea includes recently proposed factorization method. An alternative method, complex Langevin equation and an interesting model, finite isospin model, are also discussed. In Appendix, we give several technical points which are useful in practical calculations.

Higher Order Hybrid Monte Carlo at Finite Temperature

The standard hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm uses the second order integrator at the molecular dynamics step. This choice of the integrator is not always the best. Using the Wilson fermion action, we study the performance of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm for lattice QCD with higher order integrators in both zero and finite temperature phases and find that in the finite temperature phase the performance of the algorithm can be raised by use of the 4th order integrator.

Odd-flavor Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm for Lattice QCD

We discuss hybrid Monte Carlo algorithms for odd-flavor lattice QCD simulations. The algorithms include a polynomial approximation which enables us to simulate odd-flavor QCD in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. In order to make the algorithms exact, the correction factor to the polynomial approximation is also included in an economical, stochastic way. We test the algorithms for $n_f=1$, 1+1 and 2+1 flavors and compare results with other algorithms.

Generalized ensemble algorithm for U(1) gauge theory

Hybrid Monte Carlo simulations of the pure compact U(1) gauge theory are performed with the Tsallis weight. The simulations show that the use of the Tsallis weight enhances the tunneling rate between metastable states.

Odd-flavor Simulations by the Hybrid Monte Carlo

The standard hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm is known to simulate even flavors QCD only. Simulations of odd flavors QCD, however, can be also performed in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm where the inverse of the fermion matrix is approximated by a polynomial. In this exploratory study we perform three flavors QCD simulations. We make a comparison of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm and the R-algorithm which also simulates odd flavors systems but has step-size errors. We find that results from our hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm are in agreement with those from the R-algorithm obtained at very small step-size.

Choice of Integrator in the Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm

We study efficiency of higher order integrator schemes for the hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm. Numerical tests are performed for Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) with two flavors of Wilson fermions. We compare 2nd, 4th and 6th order integrators at various quark masses. The performance depends on both volume and quark mass. On currently accessible large lattices ($V \sim 24^4$), higher order integrators can be more efficient than the 2nd order one only in heavy quark region, $m_q a > 0.3$. Thus we conclude that for most full QCD simulations, except for heavy quark case, the usual 2nd order integrator is the best choice.

The Deconfinement Phase Transition in One-Flavour QCD

We present a study of the deconfinement phase transition of one-flavour QCD, using the multiboson algorithm. The mass of the Wilson fermions relevant for this study is moderately large and the non-hermitian multiboson method is a superior simulation algorithm. Finite size scaling is studied on lattices of size $8^3\times 4$, $12^3\times 4$ and $16^3\times 4$. The behaviours of the peak of the Polyakov loop susceptibility, the deconfinement ratio and the distribution of the norm of the Polyakov loop are all characteristic of a first-order phase transition for heavy quarks. As the quark mass decreases, the first-order transition gets weaker and turns into a crossover. To investigate finite size scaling on larger spatial lattices we use an effective action in the same universality class as QCD. This effective action is constructed by replacing the fermionic determinant with the Polyakov loop identified as the most relevant Z(3) symmetry breaking term. Higher-order effects are incorporated in an effective Z(3)-breaking field, $h$, which couples to the Polyakov loop. Finite size scaling determines the value of $h$ where the first order transition ends. Our analysis at the end - point, $h_{ep}$, indicates that the effective model and thus QCD is consistent with the universality class of the three dimensional Ising model. Matching the field strength at the end point, $h_{ep}$, to the $κ$ values used in the dynamical quark simulations we estimate the end point, $κ_{ep}$, of the first-order phase transition. We find $κ_{ep}\sim 0.08 $ which corresponds to a quark mass of about 1.4 GeV .

Fast Fermion Monte Carlo

Three possibilities to speed up the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm are investigated. Changing the step-size adaptively brings no practical gain. On the other hand, substantial improvements result from using an approximate Hamiltonian or a preconditioned action.

Adaptive Step Size for Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm

We implement an adaptive step size method for the Hybrid Monte Carlo a lgorithm. The adaptive step size is given by solving a symmetric error equation. An integr ator with such an adaptive step size is reversible. Although we observe appreciable variations of the step size, the overhead of the method exceeds its benefits. We propose an explanation for this phenomenon.
