Vector correlator and scale determination in lattice QCD
2013
We implement a proposal made in [arXiv:1107.4388] to determine the lattice spacing by matching the lattice vector correlator at a reference distance scale with the same correlator obtained by a dispersion relation based on the $R$-ratio determined experimentally. We work with the isovector current, requiring a separation of the isovector hadronic final states on the phenomenological side. We also discuss the finite-size effect on the correlator, which must be controlled in order for the method to be applicable.
Progress of lattice calculation of light-by-light contribution to muon g−2
2016
Abstract In this proceedings, I review a progress of lattice calculation of muon g-2, in particular for the next-to-leading order of hadronic contribution from light-by-light diagram. I present the lattice computation method of which the light-by-light diagram is decomposed into three-point function having two-vector and one-pseudoscalar currents, or direct muon form factor calculation including lattice QED+QCD in Monte-Carlo simulation. I also discuss the recent result with those strategy and prospective precision we will reach in the future.

Phase diagram of the two-channel kondo lattice model in one dimension.
2004
Employing the density matrix renormalization group method and strong-coupling perturbation theory, we study the phase diagram of the $\mathrm{SU}(2)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{SU}(2)$ Kondo lattice model in one dimension. We show that, at quarter filling, the system can exist in two phases depending on the coupling strength. The weak-coupling phase is dominated by RKKY exchange correlations, while the strong-coupling phase is characterized by strong antiferromagnetic correlations of the channel degree of freedom. These two phases are separated by a quantum critical point. For conduction-band fillings of less than one-quarter, we find a paramagnetic metallic phase at weak coupl…
Dynamics of surface enrichment: A theory based on the Kawasaki spin-exchange model in the presence of a wall
1991
A mean-field theory is developed for the description of the dynamics of surface enrichment in binary mixtures, where one component is favored by an impenetrable wall. Assuming a direct exchange (Kawasaki-type) model of interdiffusion, a layerwise molecular-field approximation is formulated in the framework of a lattice model. Also the corresponding continuum theory is considered, paying particular attention to the proper derivation of boundary conditions for the differential equation at the hard wall. As an application, we consider the explicit solutions of the derived equations in the case where nonlinear effects can be neglected, studying the approach of an initially flat (homogeneous) co…
Thermodynamics of the two-dimensional Heisenberg classical honeycomb lattice
1998
In this article we adapt a previous work concerning the two-dimensional (2D) Heisenberg classical square lattice [Physica B 245, 263 (1998)] to the case of a honeycomb lattice. Closed-form expressions of the main thermodynamic functions of interest are derived in the zero-field limit. Notably, near absolute zero (i.e., the critical temperature), we derive the values of the critical exponents $\ensuremath{\alpha}=0,\ensuremath{\eta}=\ensuremath{-}1,\ensuremath{\gamma}=3,$ and $\ensuremath{\nu}=1,$ as for the square lattice, thus proving their universal character. A very simple model allows one to give a good description of the low-temperature behaviors of the product $\ensuremath{\chi}T.$ Fo…
Monte Carlo simulation of a lattice model for ternary polymer mixtures
1988
Monte Carlo studies of symmetrical polymer mixturesAB, modelled by selfavoiding walks withNA=NB=N steps on a simple cubic lattice, are presented for arbitrary concentrations of vacanciesφv in the range fromφv=0.2 toφv=0.8 and chain lengthsN≤64. We obtained the phase diagrams and the equation of state for three choices of the ratio ∈ / ∈AB (∈ being the energy between monomers of the same kind, ∈AB being the energy between different monomers). Flory-Huggins theory provides only a qualitative understanding of these results. If the equation of state is “fitted” with an effective Flory-Huggins parameterχeff, the latter turns out to be strongly dependent on both concentration and temperature.
Conformational Changes of a Single Semiflexible Macromolecule Near an Adsorbing Surface: A Monte Carlo Simulation
2009
The properties of a single semiflexible chain tethered to a planar surface with a long-ranged attractive potential are studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We employ the bond fluctuation lattice model and the Wang-Landau sampling technique. We present the diagram of states for semiflexible chains consisting of N = 64 and 128 monomer units as a function of temperature T and strength of the adsorption potential, epsilon(w), and also compare this with the diagram of states for flexible chains of these two lengths. The diagram of states consists of the regions of a coil, liquid globule, solid isotropic globule, adsorbed coil, and quasi-two-dimensional solid globule with nematic bond ord…
Evidence for the time-temperature superposition principle from Monte-Carlo simulations of the glass transition in two-dimensional polymer melts
1992
The bond fluctuation model on a square lattice with a bond-length dependent potential exhibits in simulations of slow cooling a kinetic glass transition where the system falls out of equilibrium. Extending previous work, the relaxation functions of gyration radius and end-to-end distance, and the bond autocorrelation function of the polymers are presented and related to the time-dependent displacements of inner monomeric units and center of gravity of the whole chains, respectively. Over a wide temperature range the data can be collapsed on master curves satisfying the time-temperature superposition principle for Rouse dynamics.
LOW-ENERGY QCD II — STATUS OF LATTICE CALCULATIONS
2013
The current status of lattice calculations is reviewed, with a particular emphasis on the question whether lattice simulations have matured to a stage where there is full interaction with experiment. Particular examples include the hadron spectrum, mesonic form factors and decay constants, the axial charge of the nucleon, and the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon (g-2).
