The construction of baryonic operators for determining the N* excitation spectrum is discussed. The operators are designed with one eye towards maximizing overlaps with the low-lying states of interest, and the other eye towards minimizing the number of sources needed in computing the required quark propagators. Issues related to spin identification are outlined. Although we focus on tri-quark baryon operators, the construction method is applicable to both mesons and penta-quark operators.

We discuss simulations with different lattice Dirac operators for sea and valence quarks. A goal of such a mixed action approach is to probe deeper the chiral regime of QCD by enabling simulations with light valence quarks. This is achieved by using chiral fermions as valence quarks while computationally inexpensive fermions are used in the sea sector. Specifically, we consider Wilson sea quarks and Ginsparg-Wilson valence quarks. The local Symanzik action for this mixed theory is derived to O(a), and the appropriate low energy chiral effective Lagrangian is constructed, including the leading O(a) contributions. Using this Lagrangian one can calculate expressions for physical observables and determine the Gasser-Leutwyler coefficients by fitting them to the lattice data.
Photon operators with the proper $J^{PC}$ quantum numbers are constructed, including one made of elementary plaquettes. In compact U(1) lattice gauge theory, these explicit photon operators are shown to permit direct confirmation of the massive and massless states on each side of the phase transition. In the abelian Higgs model, these explicit photon operators avoid some excited state contamination seen with the traditional composite operator, and allow more detailed future studies of the Higgs mechanism.
We construct operators for simulating the scattering of two hadrons with spin on the lattice. Three methods are shown to give the consistent operators for PN, PV, VN and NN scattering, where P, V and N denote pseudoscalar, vector and nucleon. Explicit expressions for operators are given for all irreducible representations at lowest two relative momenta. Each hadron has a good helicity in the first method. The hadrons are in a certain partial wave L with total spin S in the second method. These enable the physics interpretations of the operators obtained from the general projection method. The correct transformation properties of the operators in all three methods are proven. The total momentum of two hadrons is restricted to zero since parity is a good quantum number in this case.
We have technically improved the non-perturbative renormalization method, proposed by Martinelli et al., by using quark momentum sources and sinks. Composite two-fermion operators up to three derivatives have been measured for Wilson fermions and Sheikholeslami-Wohlert improved fermions in the quenched approximation. The calculations are performed in the Landau gauge on 16^3x32 lattices at beta = 6.0 for 3 kappa values in each case. The improved sources greatly decrease the statistical noise. We extract and discuss here renormalization factors for local operators and moments of the structure functions for Wilson fermions.
Instead of the Ginsparg-Wilson (GW) relation we only require generalized chiral symmetry and show that this results in a larger class of Dirac operators describing massless fermions, which in addition to GW fermions and to the ones proposed by Fujikawa includes many more general ones. The index turns out to depend solely on a basic unitary operator. We use spectral representations to analyze the new class and to obtain detailed properties. We also show that our weaker conditions still lead properly to Weyl fermions and to chiral gauge theories.
