We investigate whether the lightest scalar mesons sigma and kappa have a large tetraquark component, as is strongly supported by many phenomenological studies. A search for possible light tetraquark states with J^PC=0^++ and I=0, 2, 1/2, 3/2 on the lattice is presented. We perform the two-flavor dynamical simulation with Chirally Improved quarks and the quenched simulation with overlap quarks, finding qualitative agreement between both results. The spectrum is determined using the generalized eigenvalue method with a number of tetraquark interpolators at the source and the sink, and we omit the disconnected contractions. The time-dependence of the eigenvalues at finite temporal extent of the lattice is explored also analytically. In all the channels, we unavoidably find lowest scattering states pi(k)pi(-k) or K(k)pi(-k) with back-to-back momentum k=0, 2*pi/L,... However, we find an additional light state in the I=0 and I=1/2 channels, which may be interpreted as the observed resonances sigma and kappa with a sizable tetraquark component. In the exotic repulsive channels I=2 and I=3/2, where no resonance is observed, we find no light state in addition to the scattering states.

We study the light scalar mesons a_0(980) and kappa using N_f = 2+1+1 flavor lattice QCD. In order to probe the internal structure of these scalar mesons, and in particular to identify, whether a sizeable tetraquark component is present, we use a lar ge set of operators, including diquark-antidiquark, mesonic molecule and two-meson operators. The inclusion of disconnected diagrams, which are technically rather challenging, but which would allow us to extend our work to e.g. the f_0(980) meson, is introduced and discussed.
In previous works we predicted the existence of a $bar b bar b u d$ tetraquark with quantum numbers $I(J^P) = 0(1^+)$ using the static approximation for the $bar b$ quarks and neglecting heavy spin effects. Since the binding energy is of the same ord er as expected for these heavy spin effects, it is essential to include them in the computation. Here we present a corresponding method and show evidence that binding is only slightly weakened and that the $bar b bar b u d$ tetraquark persists.
Charmed tetraquarks $T_{cc}=(ccbar{u}bar{d})$ and $T_{cs}=(csbar{u}bar{d})$ are studied through the S-wave meson-meson interactions, $D$-$D$, $bar{K}$-$D$, $D$-$D^{*}$ and $bar{K}$-$D^{*}$, on the basis of the (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD simulations wit h the pion mass $m_{pi} simeq $410, 570 and 700 MeV. For the charm quark, the relativistic heavy quark action is employed to treat its dynamics on the lattice. Using the HAL QCD method, we extract the S-wave potentials in lattice QCD simulations, from which the meson-meson scattering phase shifts are calculated. The phase shifts in the isospin triplet ($I$=1) channels indicate repulsive interactions, while those in the $I=0$ channels suggest attraction, growing as $m_{pi}$ decreases. This is particularly prominent in the $T_{cc} (J^P=1^+,I=0)$ channel, though neither bound state nor resonance are found in the range $m_{pi} =410-700$ MeV. We make a qualitative comparison of our results with the phenomenological diquark picture.
We address the question whether the lightest scalar mesons sigma and kappa are tetraquarks. We present a search for possible light tetraquark states with J^PC=0^++ and I=0, 1/2, 3/2, 2 in the dynamical and the quenched lattice simulations using tetra quark interpolators. In all the channels, we unavoidably find lowest scattering states pi(k)pi(-k) or K(k)pi(-k) with back-to-back momentum k=0,2*pi/L,.. . However, we find an additional light state in the I=0 and I=1/2 channels, which may be related to the observed resonances sigma and kappa with a strong tetraquark component. In the exotic repulsive channels I=2 and I=3/2, where no resonance is observed, we find no light state in addition to the scattering states.
Motivated by multiple phenomenological considerations, we perform the first search for the existence of a $bar{b}bar{b}bb$ tetraquark bound state with a mass below the lowest non-interacting bottomonium-pair threshold using the first-principles latti ce non-relativistic QCD methodology. We use a full $S$-wave colour/spin basis for the $bar{b}bar{b}bb$ operators in the three $0^{++}$, $1^{+-}$ and $2^{++}$ channels. We employ four gluon field ensembles at multiple lattice spacing values ranging from $a = 0.06 - 0.12$ fm, all of which include $u$, $d$, $s$ and $c$ quarks in the sea, and one ensemble which has physical light-quark masses. Additionally, we perform novel exploratory work with the objective of highlighting any signal of a near threshold tetraquark, if it existed, by adding an auxiliary potential into the QCD interactions. With our results we find no evidence of a QCD bound tetraquark below the lowest non-interacting thresholds in the channels studied.
