We test an alternative proposal by Bruno and Hansen [1] to extract the scattering length from lattice simulations in a finite volume. For this, we use a scalar $phi^4$ theory with two mass nondegenerate particles and explore various strategies to implement this new method. We find that the results are comparable to those obtained from the Luscher method, with somewhat smaller statistical uncertainties at larger volumes.

We study the standard one-component $varphi^4$-theory in four dimensions. A renormalized coupling is defined in a finite size renormalization scheme which becomes the standard scheme of the broken phase for large volumes. Numerical simulations are reported using the worm algorithm in the limit of infinite bare coupling. The cutoff dependence of the renormalized coupling closely follows the perturbative Callan Symanzik equation and the triviality scenario is hence further supported.

We present a new scheme which numerically evaluates the real-time path integral for $phi^4$ real scalar field theory in a lattice version of the closed-time formalism. First step of the scheme is to rewrite the path integral in an explicitly convergent form by applying Cauchys integral theorem to each scalar field. In the step an integration path for the scalar field is deformed on a complex plane such that the $phi^4$ term becomes a damping factor in the path integral. Secondly the integrations of the complexified scalar fields are discretized by the Gauss-Hermite quadrature and then the path integral turns out to be a multiple sum. Finally in order to efficiently evaluate the summation we apply information compression technique using the singular value decomposition to the discretized path integral, then a tensor network representation for the path integral is obtained after integrating the discretized fields. As a demonstration, by using the resulting tensor network we numerically evaluate the time-correlator in 1+1 dimensional system. For confirmation, we compare our result with the exact one at small spatial volume. Furthermore, we show the correlator in relatively large volume using a coarse-graining scheme and verify that the result is stable against changes of a truncation order for the coarse-graining scheme.
We study the two-dimensional complex $phi^{4}$ theory at finite chemical potential using the tensor renormalization group. This model exhibits the Silver Blaze phenomenon in which bulk observables are independent of the chemical potential below the critical point. Since it is expected to be a direct outcome of an imaginary part of the action, an approach free from the sign problem is needed. We study this model systematically changing the chemical potential in order to check the applicability of the tensor renormalization group to the model in which scalar fields are discretized by the Gaussian quadrature. The Silver Blaze phenomenon is successfully confirmed on the extremely large volume $V=1024^2$ and the results are also ensured by another tensor network representation with a character expansion.
The presence of long-range interactions violates a condition necessary to relate the energy of two particles in a finite volume to their S-matrix elements in the manner of Luscher. While in infinite volume, QED contributions to low-energy charged particle scattering must be resummed to all orders in perturbation theory (the Coulomb ladder diagrams), in a finite volume the momentum operator is gapped, allowing for a perturbative treatment. The leading QED corrections to the two-particle finite-volume energy quantization condition below the inelastic threshold, as well as approximate formulas for energy eigenvalues, are obtained. In particular, we focus on two spinless hadrons in the A1+ irreducible representation of the cubic group, and truncate the strong interactions to the s-wave. These results are necessary for the analysis of Lattice QCD+QED calculations of charged-hadron interactions, and can be straightforwardly generalized to other representations of the cubic group, to hadrons with spin, and to include higher partial waves.
In this contribution we present an exploratory study of several novel methods for numerical stochastic perturbation theory. For the investigation we consider observables defined through the gradient flow in the simple {phi}^4 theory.
