Finite size effect on vector meson and baryon sectors in 2+1 flavor QCD at the physical point

We investigate the finite size effect on the vector meson and the baryon sectors using a subset of the "PACS10" configurations which are generated, keeping the space-time volumes over (10 fm$)^4$ in 2+1 flavor QCD at the physical point. Comparing the results on (5.5 fm$)^4$ and (10.9 fm$)^4$ lattices the ground states of octet baryons , which are stable on the lattice, show no finite size effect within less than 0.5% level of statistical errors. For those of vector mesons, which are unstable on the lattice, we observe that the effective masses are well below the experimental resonance levels both on (5.5 fm$)^4$ and (10.9 fm$)^4$ lattices. For the decuplet baryon sector we have found that the time dependence of the effective mass looks quite similar to that for the vector meson sector including the $Ω$ baryon channel. We discuss its origin due to a possible mixing with the nearby multihadron states. Since the $Ξ$ baryon mass can be determined with the smallest ambiguity among the vector meson and the baryon masses, we use it together with the pion and kaon masses as the physical inputs to determine the physical point.

Finite size effect on pseudoscalar meson sector in 2+1 flavor QCD at the physical point

We investigate the finite size effect on pseudoscalar meson masses and decay constants using a subset of the "PACS10" configurations which are generated keeping the space-time volumes over (10 fm$)^4$ in 2+1 flavor QCD at the physical point. We have tried two kinds of analyses, fixing $κ$ values or measured axial Ward identity quark masses. Comparing the results on (5.4 fm$)^4$ and (10.8 fm$)^4$ lattices, we have found a sizable finite size effect on the pseudoscalar meson sector in the former analysis: a 2.1(8)%, 4.8(1.6)%, and 0.36(31)% finite size effect on $m_π$, $m_{\rm ud}$, and $f_π$, respectively, on the (5.4 fm$)^4$ lattice. For the latter analysis, the finite size effect on the pseudoscalar meson decay constants is 0.66(33)% for $f_π$, 0.26(13)% for $f_K$, and 0.40(32)% for $f_K/f_π$. These values with two-sigma error bars are consistent with the predictions from the full one-loop SU(3) chiral perturbation theory, which are 0.20% for $f_π$, 0.08% for $f_K$, and 0.13% for $f_K/f_π$. The finite size effect on the pseudoscalar meson masses is hardly detected under the current statistical precision.

2+1 flavor QCD simulation on a $96^4$ lattice

We generate $2+1$ flavor QCD configurations near the physical point on a $96^4$ lattice employing the 6-APE stout smeared Wilson clover action with a nonperturbative $c_{\rm SW}$ and the Iwasaki gauge action at $β=1.82$. The physical point is estimated based on the chiral perturbation theory using several data points generated by the reweighting technique from the simulation point, wherer $m_π$,$m_K$ and $m_Ω$ are used as physical inputs. The physics results include the quark masses, the hadron spectrum, the pseudoscalar meson decay constants and nucleon sigma terms, using the nonperturbative renormalization factors evaluated with the Schrodinger functional method.

Mass and Axial current renormalization in the Schrödinger functional scheme for the RG-improved gauge and the stout smeared $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark actions

We present the quark mass and axial current renormalization factors for the RG-improved Iwasaki gauge action and three flavors of the stout smeared $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action. We employ $α=0.1$ and $n_{\mathrm{step}}=6$ for the stout link smearing parameters and all links in the quark action are replaced with the smeared links. Using the Schrödinger functional scheme we evaluate the renormalization factors at $β=1.82$ where large scale simulations are being carried out.

Charmed baryons at the physical point in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD

We investigate the charmed baryon mass spectrum using the relativistic heavy quark action on 2+1 flavor PACS-CS configurations previously generated on $32^3 \times 64$ lattice. The dynamical up-down and strange quark masses are tuned to their physical values, reweighted from those employed in the configuration generation. At the physical point, the inverse lattice spacing determined from the $Ω$ baryon mass gives $a^{-1}=2.194(10)$ GeV, and thus the spatial extent becomes $L = 32 a = 2.88(1)$ fm. Our results for the charmed baryon masses are consistent with experimental values, except for the mass of $Ξ_{cc}$, which has been measured by only one experimental group so far and has not been confirmed yet by others. In addition, we report values of other doubly and triply charmed baryon masses, which have never been measured experimentally.

Multi-block/multi-core SSOR preconditioner for the QCD quark solver for K computer

We study the algorithmic optimization and performance tuning of the Lattice QCD clover-fermion solver for the K computer. We implement the Lüscher's SAP preconditioner with sub-blocking in which the lattice block in a node is further divided to several sub-blocks to extract enough parallelism for the 8-core CPU SPARC64$^{\mathrm{TM}}$ VIIIfx of the K computer. To achieve a better convergence property we use the symmetric successive over-relaxation (SSOR) iteration with {\it locally-lexicographical} ordering for the sub-blocks in obtaining the block inverse. The SAP preconditioner is included in the single precision BiCGStab solver of the nested BiCGStab solver. The single precision part of the computational kernel are solely written with the SIMD oriented intrinsics to achieve the best performance of the \SPARC on the K computer. We benchmark the single precision BiCGStab solver on the three lattice sizes: $12^3\times 24$, $24^3\times 48$ and $48^3\times 96$, with fixing the local lattice size in a node at $6^3\times 12$. We observe an ideal weak-scaling performance from 16 nodes to 4096 nodes. The performance of a computational kernel exceeds 50% efficiency, and the single precision BiCGstab has $\sim26% susutained efficiency.

1+1+1 flavor QCD + QED simulation at the physical point

We present the results of 1+1+1 flavor QCD+QED simulation at the physical point, in which the dynamical quark effects in QED and the up-down quark mass difference are incorporated by the reweighting technique. The physical quark masses together with the lattice spacing are determined with $m_{π^+}$, $m_{K^+}$, $m_{K^0}$ and $m_{Ω^-}$ as physical inputs. Calculations are carried out using a set of 2+1 flavor QCD configurations near the physical point generated by the non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action at $β=1.9$ on a $32^3\times 64$ lattice. We evaluate the values of the up, down and strange quark masses individually with non-perturbative QCD renormalization.

$ρ$ Meson Decay in 2+1 Flavor Lattice QCD

We perform a lattice QCD study of the $ρ$ meson decay from the $N_f=2+1$ full QCD configurations generated with a renormalization group improved gauge action and a non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermion action. The resonance parameters, the effective $ρ\toππ$ coupling constant and the resonance mass, are estimated from the $P$-wave scattering phase shift for the isospin I=1 two-pion system. The finite size formulas are employed to calculate the phase shift from the energy on the lattice. Our calculations are carried out at two quark masses, $m_π=410\,{\rm MeV}$ ($m_π/m_ρ=0.46$) and $m_π=300\,{\rm MeV}$ ($m_π/m_ρ=0.35$), on a $32^3\times 64$ ($La=2.9\,{\rm fm}$) lattice at the lattice spacing $a=0.091\,{\rm fm}$. We compare our results at these two quark masses with those given in the previous works using $N_f=2$ full QCD configurations and the experiment.

Two-Nucleon Bound States in Quenched Lattice QCD

We address the issue of bound state in the two-nucleon system in lattice QCD. Our study is made in the quenched approximation at the lattice spacing of a = 0.128 fm with a heavy quark mass corresponding to m_pi = 0.8 GeV. To distinguish a bound state from an attractive scattering state, we investigate the volume dependence of the energy difference between the ground state and the free two-nucleon state by changing the spatial extent of the lattice from 3.1 fm to 12.3 fm. A finite energy difference left in the infinite spatial volume limit leads us to the conclusion that the measured ground states for not only spin triplet but also singlet channels are bounded. Furthermore the existence of the bound state is confirmed by investigating the properties of the energy for the first excited state obtained by 2x2 diagonalization method. The scattering lengths for both channels are evaluated by applying the finite volume formula derived by Luscher to the energy of the first excited states.

Charm quark system at the physical point of 2+1 flavor lattice QCD

We investigate the charm quark system using the relativistic heavy quark action on 2+1 flavor PACS-CS configurations previously generated on $32^3 \times 64$ lattice. The dynamical up-down and strange quark masses are set to the physical values by using the technique of reweighting to shift the quark hopping parameters from the values employed in the configuration generation. At the physical point, the lattice spacing equals $a^{-1}=2.194(10)$ GeV and the spatial extent $L=2.88(1)$ fm. The charm quark mass is determined by the spin-averaged mass of the 1S charmonium state, from which we obtain $m_{\rm charm}^{\msbar}(μ= m_{\rm charm}^{\msbar}) = 1.260(1)(6)(35)$ GeV, where the errors are due to our statistics, scale determination and renormalization factor. An additional systematic error from the heavy quark is of order $α_s^2 f(m_Q a)(a Λ_{QCD})$, which is estimated to be a percent level if the factor $f(m_Q a)$ analytic in $m_Q a$ is of order unity. Our results for the charmed and charmed-strange meson decay constants are $f_D=226(6)(1)(5)$ MeV, $f_{D_s}=257(2)(1)(5)$ MeV, again up to the heavy quark errors of order $α_s^2 f(m_Q a)(a Λ_{QCD})$. Combined with the CLEO values for the leptonic decay widths, these values yield $|V_{cd}| = 0.205(6)(1)(5)(9)$, $|V_{cs}| = 1.00(1)(1)(3)(3)$, where the last error is on account of the experimental uncertainty of the decay widths.

Modified Block BiCGSTAB for Lattice QCD

We present results for application of block BiCGSTAB algorithm modified by the QR decomposition and the SAP preconditioner to the Wilson-Dirac equation with multiple right-hand sides in lattice QCD on a $32^3 \times 64$ lattice at almost physical quark masses. The QR decomposition improves convergence behaviors in the block BiCGSTAB algorithm suppressing deviation between true residual and recursive one. The SAP preconditioner applied to the domain-decomposed lattice helps us minimize communication overhead. We find remarkable cost reduction thanks to cache tuning and reduction of number of iterations.

Calculation of $ρ$ meson decay width from the PACS-CS configurations

We present preliminary results on the $ρ$ meson decay width from $N_f=2+1$ full QCD configurations generated by PACS-CS Collaboration. The decay width is estimated from the $P$-wave scattering phase shift for the isospin $I=1$ two-pion system. The finite size formula presented by Lüscher in the center of mass frame and its extension to non-zero total momentum frame by Rummukainen and Gottlieb are employed for the calculations of the phase shift. Our calculations are carried out at $m_π=410\ {\rm MeV}$ ($m_π/m_ρ=0.46$) and $a=0.091\ {\rm fm}$ on a $32^3\times 64$ ($La=2.9 {\rm fm}$) lattice.

A quadrature-based eigensolver with a Krylov subspace method for shifted linear systems for Hermitian eigenproblems in lattice QCD

We consider a quadrature-based eigensolver to find eigenpairs of Hermitian matrices arising in lattice quantum chromodynamics. To reduce the computational cost for finding eigenpairs of such Hermitian matrices, we propose a new technique for solving shifted linear systems with complex shifts by means of the shifted CG method. Furthermore using integration paths along horizontal lines corresponding to the real axis of the complex plane, the number of iterations for the shifted CG method is also reduced. Some numerical experiments illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method by comparison with a conventional method.

Non-perturbative renormalization of quark mass in Nf=2+1 QCD with the Schroedinger functional scheme

We present an evaluation of the quark mass renormalization factor for Nf=2+1 QCD. The Schroedinger functional scheme is employed as the intermediate scheme to carry out non-perturbative running from the low energy region, where renormalization of bare mass is performed on the lattice, to deep in the high energy perturbative region, where the conversion to the renormalization group invariant mass or the MS-bar scheme is safely carried out. For numerical simulations we adopted the Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermion action with the clover term. Seven renormalization scales are used to cover from low to high energy regions and three lattice spacings to take the continuum limit at each scale. The regularization independent step scaling function of the quark mass for the Nf=2+1 QCD is obtained in the continuum limit. Renormalization factors for the pseudo scalar density and the axial vector current are also evaluated for the same action and the bare couplings as two recent large scale Nf=2+1 simulations; previous work of the CP-PACS/JLQCD collaboration, which covered the up-down quark mass range heavier than $m_π\sim 500$ MeV and that of PACS-CS collaboration for much lighter quark masses down to $m_π=155$ MeV. The quark mass renormalization factor is used to renormalize bare PCAC masses in these simulations.

Physical Point Simulation in 2+1 Flavor Lattice QCD

We present the results of the physical point simulation in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD with the nonperturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki gauge action at $β=1.9$ on a $32^3 \times 64$ lattice. The physical quark masses together with the lattice spacing is determined with $m_π$, $m_K$ and $m_Ω$ as physical inputs. There are two key algorithmic ingredients to make possible the direct simulation at the physical point: One is the mass-preconditioned domain-decomposed HMC algorithm to reduce the computational cost. The other is the reweighting technique to adjust the hopping parameters exactly to the physical point. The physics results include the hadron spectrum, the quark masses and the pseudoscalar meson decay constants. The renormalization factors are nonperturbatively evaluated with the Schr{ö}dinger functional method. The results are compared with the previous ones obtained by the chiral extrapolation method.

Helium Nuclei in Quenched Lattice QCD

We present results for the binding energies for He and ^3He nuclei calculated in quenched lattice QCD at the lattice spacing of a = 0.128 fm with a heavy quark mass corresponding to m_pi = 0.8 GeV. Enormous computational cost for the nucleus correlation functions is reduced by avoiding redundancy of equivalent contractions stemming from permutation symmetry of protons or neutrons in the nucleus and various other symmetries. To distinguish a bound state from an attractive scattering state, we investigate the volume dependence of the energy difference between the nucleus and the free multi-nucleon states by changing the spatial extent of the lattice from 3.1 fm to 12.3 fm. A finite energy difference left in the infinite spatial volume limit leads to the conclusion that the measured ground states are bounded. It is also encouraging that the measured binding energies and the experimental ones show the same order of magnitude.

Precise determination of the strong coupling constant in Nf=2+1 lattice QCD with the Schrödinger functional scheme

We present an evaluation of the running coupling constant for Nf=2+1 QCD. The Schroedinger functional scheme is used as the intermediate scheme to carry out non-perturbative running from the low energy region, where physical scale is introduced, to deep in the high energy perturbative region, where conversion to the MS-bar scheme is safely performed. Possible systematic errors due to the use of perturbation theory occur only in the conversion from three-flavor to four-flavor running coupling constant near the charm mass threshold, where higher order terms beyond 5th order in the $β$ function may not be negligible. For numerical simulations we adopted Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturbatively improved Wilson fermion action with the clover term. Seven renormalization scales are used to cover from low to high energy region and three lattice spacings to take the continuum limit at each scale. A physical scale is introduced from the previous Nf=2+1 simulation of the CP-PACS/JL-QCD collaboration, which covered the up-down quark mass range heavier than $m_π\sim 500$ MeV.

Application of preconditioned block BiCGGR to the Wilson-Dirac equation with multiple right-hand sides in lattice QCD

There exist two major problems in application of the conventional block BiCGSTAB method to the O(a)-improved Wilson-Dirac equation with multiple right-hand-sides: One is the deviation between the true and the recursive residuals. The other is the convergence failure observed at smaller quark masses for enlarged number of the right-hand-sides. The block BiCGGR algorithm which was recently proposed by the authors succeeds in solving the former problem. In this article we show that a preconditioning technique allows us to improve the convergence behavior for increasing number of the right-hand-sides.
