We present results for the nucleon axial charge g_A at a fixed lattice spacing of 1/a=1.73(3) GeV using 2+1 flavors of domain wall fermions on size 16^3x32 and 24^3x64lattices (L=1.8 and 2.7 fm) with length 16 in the fifth dimension. The length of the Monte Carlo trajectory at the lightest m_pi is 7360 units, including 900 for thermalization. We find finite volume effects are larger than the pion mass dependence at m_pi= 330 MeV. We also find that g_A exhibits a scaling with the single variable m_pi L which can also be seen in previous two-flavor domain wall and Wilson fermion calculati ons. Using this scaling to eliminate the finite-volume effect, we obtain g_A = 1.20(6)(4) at the physical pion mass, m_pi = 135 MeV, where the first and second errors are statistical and systematic. The observed finite-volume scaling also appears in similar quenched simulations, but disappear when Vge (2.4 fm)^3. We argue this is a dynamical quark effect.

We present a quenched lattice calculation of the nucleon isovector vector and axial-vector charges gV and gA. The chiral symmetry of domain wall fermions makes the calculation of the nucleon axial charge particularly easy since the Ward-Takahashi ide ntity requires the vector and axial-vector currents to have the same renormalization, up to lattice spacing errors of order O(a^2). The DBW2 gauge action provides enhancement of the good chiral symmetry properties of domain wall fermions at larger lattice spacing than the conventional Wilson gauge action. Taking advantage of these methods and performing a high statistics simulation, we find a significant finite volume effect between the nucleon axial charges calculated on lattices with (1.2 fm)^3 and (2.4 fm)^3 volumes (with lattice spacing, a, of about 0.15 fm). On the large volume we find gA = 1.212 +/- 0.027(statistical error) +/- 0.024(normalization error). The quoted systematic error is the dominant (known) one, corresponding to current renormalization. We discuss other possible remaining sources of error. This theoretical first principles calculation, which does not yet include isospin breaking effects, yields a value of gA only a little bit below the experimental one, 1.2670 +/- 0.0030.
We report the current status of the on-going lattice-QCD calculations of nucleon isovector axial charge, g_A, using the RBC/UKQCD 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermion ensembles at lattice cutoff of about a^{-1}=1.4 GeV in a spatial volume (L = 4. 6 fm)^3. The result from the ensemble with m_pi = 250 MeV pion mass, corresponding to the finite-size scaling parameter m_pi L sim 5.8, agrees well with an earlier result at a^{-1}=1.7 GeV, L = 2.8 fm, and m_pi = 420 MeV, with similar m_pi L. This suggests the systematic error from excited-state contamination is small in both ensembles and about 10-% deficit in g_A we are observing is likely a finite-size effect that scales with m_pi L. We also report the result from the lighter, m_pi = 170 MeV ensemble.

The current status of some nucleon isovector observables, the vector charge, (g_V), axial charge, (g_A), quark momentum fraction, (langle x rangle_{u-d}), and quark helicity fraction, (langle x rangle_{Delta u - Delta d}), calculated using recent RBC /UKQCD 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermions (DWF) lattice QCD ensembles are reported: with Iwasaki gauge action at inverse lattice spacing, (a^{-1}), of about 1.7 GeV, linear lattice extent, (L), of about 2.7 fm, pion mass, (m_pi), of about 420 and 330 MeV, and with Iwasaki(times)DSDR gauge action at (a^{-1}) of about 1.4 GeV, (L) of about 4.6 fm, and (m_pi) of about 250 and 170 MeV. The calculations have been refined with enhanced statistics, in particular through successful application of the all-mode-averaging (AMA) technique for the 170- and 330-MeV ensembles. As a result, the precision agreement seen in the charge ratio, (g_A/g_V), for 420-MeV and 250-MeV ensembles that share the finite-size scaling parameter (m_pi L) of about 5.8 is more significant with new values of 1.17(2) and 1.18(4) respectively. We also studied the dependence on the source-sink separation in the lightest ensemble of 170-MeV, by comparing the cases with the separation of about 1.0 and 1.3 fm and did not see any dependence: contamination from the excited states are well under control in our choice of source and sink smearing. The axial charge, (g_A) and the ratio, (g_A/g_V), shows a long-range autocorrelation that extends the entire range of configurations that were so far analyzed, almost 700 hybrid Molecular Dynamics time, in the lightest ensemble of (m_pi=170) MeV. The other observables do not show any autocorrelation with the interval of 16 trajectories.

Analyses on possible systematics in some isovector nucleon observables in the RBC+UKQCD 2+1-flavor dynamical domain-wall fermion (DWF) lattice-QCD are presented. The vector charge, axial charge, quark momentum and helicity fractions, and transversity are discussed using mainly the Iwasaki(times)DSDR ensemble at pion mass of 170 MeV. No autocorrelation issue is observed in the vector charge and quark momentum and helicity fractions. Blocked Jack-knife analyses expose significant growth of estimated error for the axial charge with increasing block sizes that are similar to or larger than the known autocorrelation time of the gauge-field topological charge. Similar growth is seen in the transversity. These two observables, however, do not seem correlated with the topological charge.

We report our numerical lattice QCD calculations of the isovector nucleon form factors for the vector and axialvector currents: the vector, induced tensor, axialvector, and induced pseudoscalar form factors. The calculation is carried out with the ga uge configurations generated with N_f=2+1 dynamical domain wall fermions and Iwasaki gauge actions at beta = 2.13, corresponding to a cutoff 1/a = 1.73 GeV, and a spatial volume of (2.7 fm)^3. The up and down quark masses are varied so the pion mass lies between 0.33 and 0.67 GeV while the strange quark mass is about 12% heavier than the physical one. We calculate the form factors in the range of momentum transfers, 0.2 < q^2 < 0.75 GeV^2. The vector and induced tensor form factors are well described by the conventional dipole forms and result in significant underestimation of the Dirac and Pauli mean-squared radii and the anomalous magnetic moment compared to the respective experimental values. We show that the axialvector form factor is significantly affected by the finite spatial volume of the lattice. In particular in the axial charge, g_A/g_V, the finite volume effect scales with a single dimensionless quantity, m_pi L, the product of the calculated pion mass and the spatial lattice extent. Our results indicate that for this quantity, m_pi L > 6 is required to ensure that finite volume effects are below 1%.
