We present a quenched lattice calculation of all six form factors: vector [f_1(q^2)], weak magnetism [f_2(q^2)], induced scalar [f_3(q^2)], axial-vector [g_1(q^2)], weak electricity [g_2(q^2)] and induce pseudoscalar [g_3(q^2)] form factors in hyperon semileptonic decay Xi^0 -> Sigma^{+} l nu using domain wall fermions. The q^2 dependences of all form factors in the relatively low q^2 region are examined in order to evaluate their values at zero momentum transfer. The Xi^0 -> Sigma^+ transition is highly sensitive to flavor SU(3) breaking since this decay corresponds to the direct analogue of neutron beta decay under the exchange of the down quark with the strange quark. The pattern of flavor SU(3) breaking effects in the hyperon beta decay is easily exposed in a comparison to results for neutron beta decay. We measure SU(3)-breaking corrections to f_1(0), f_2(0)/f_1(0) and g_1(0)/f_1(0). A sign of the leading order corrections, of which the size is less than a few %, on f_1(0) is likely negative, while f_2(0)/f_1(0) and g_1(0)/f_1(0) receive positive corrections of order 16% and 5% respectively. The observed patterns of the deviation from the values in the exact SU(3) limit does not support some of model estimates. We show that there are nonzero second-class form factors in the Xi^0 -> Sigma^+ decay, measuring f_3(0)/f_1(0)=0.14(10) and g_2(0)/g_1(0)=0.68(18), which are comparable to the size of first-order SU(3) breaking. It is also found that the SU(3) breaking effect on g_3(0)/g_1(0) agree with the prediction of the generalized pion-pole dominance.

We present results of an exploratory study of flavor SU(3) breaking effects in hyperon beta decays using domain wall fermions. From phenomenological point of view, the significance of this subject is twofold: (1) to extract the element $V_{us}$ of th e Cabibbo-Kabayashi-Maskawa mixing matrix from the $Delta S=1$ decay process, and (2) to provide vital information to analysis of the strange quark fraction of the proton spin with the polarized deep inelastic scattering data. In this study, we explore the $Xi^0 to Sigma^+$ beta decay, which is highly sensitive to the SU(3) breaking since this decay corresponds to the direct analogue of neutron beta decay under an exchange between the down quark and the strange quark. We expose the SU(3) breaking effect on $g_A/g_V=g_1(0)/f_1(0)$ up to the first order in breaking. The second-class form factors $g_2$ and $f_3$, of which non-zero values are the direct signals of the SU(3) breaking effect, are also measured. Finally, we estimate $f_1(0)$ up to the second-order correction and then evaluate $|V_{us}|$ combined with the KTeV experiment.
We study the discrete beta function of SU(3) gauge theory with Nf=12 massless fermions in the fundamental representation. Using an nHYP-smeared staggered lattice action and an improved gradient flow running coupling $tilde g_c^2(L)$ we determine the continuum-extrapolated discrete beta function up to $g_c^2 approx 8.2$. We observe an IR fixed point at $g_{star}^2 = 7.3left(_{-2}^{+8}right)$ in the $c = sqrt{8t} / L = 0.25$ scheme, and $g_{star}^2 = 7.3left(_{-3}^{+6}right)$ with c=0.3, combining statistical and systematic uncertainties in quadrature. The systematic effects we investigate include the stability of the $(a / L) to 0$ extrapolations, the interpolation of $tilde g_c^2(L)$ as a function of the bare coupling, the improvement of the gradient flow running coupling, and the discretization of the energy density. In an appendix we observe that the resulting systematic errors increase dramatically upon combining smaller $c lesssim 0.2$ with smaller $L leq 12$, leading to an IR fixed point at $g_{star}^2 = 5.9(1.9)$ in the c=0.2 scheme, which resolves to $g_{star}^2 = 6.9left(_{-1}^{+6}right)$ upon considering only $L geq 16$. At the IR fixed point we measure the leading irrelevant critical exponent to be $gamma_g^{star} = 0.26(2)$, comparable to perturbative estimates.
We present new lattice investigations of finite-temperature transitions for SU(3) gauge theory with Nf=8 light flavors. Using nHYP-smeared staggered fermions we are able to explore renormalized couplings $g^2 lesssim 20$ on lattice volumes as large a s $48^3 times 24$. Finite-temperature transitions at non-zero fermion mass do not persist in the chiral limit, instead running into a strongly coupled lattice phase as the mass decreases. That is, finite-temperature studies with this lattice action require even larger $N_T > 24$ to directly confirm spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking.
We present the first calculation within lattice QCD of excited light meson resonances with $J^{PC} = 1^{--}$, $2^{--}$ and $3^{--}$. Working with an exact SU(3) flavor symmetry, for the singlet representation of pseudoscalar-vector scattering, we fin d two $1^{--}$ resonances, a lighter broad state and a heavier narrow state, a broad $2^{--}$ resonance decaying in both $P$- and $F$-waves, and a narrow $3^{--}$ state. We present connections to experimental $omega^star_J, phi^star_J$ resonances decaying into $pi rho$, $Kbar{K}^*$, $eta omega$ and other final states.
Using a standard cooling method for SU(3) lattice gauge fields constant Abelian magnetic field configurations are extracted after dyon-antidyon constituents forming metastable Q=0 configurations have annihilated. These so-called Dirac sheets, standar d and non-standard ones, corresponding to the two U(1) subgroups of the SU(3) group, have been found to be stable if emerging from the confined phase, close to the deconfinement phase transition, with sufficiently nontrivial Polyakov loop values. On a finite lattice we find a nice agreement of the numerical observations with the analytic predictions concerning the stability of Dirac sheets depending on the value of the Polyakov loop.
