We report a direct lattice calculation of the $K$ to $pipi$ decay matrix elements for both the $Delta I=1/2$ and 3/2 amplitudes $A_0$ and $A_2$ on 2+1 flavor, domain wall fermion, $16^3times32times16$ lattices. This is a complete calculation in which all contractions for the required ten, four-quark operators are evaluated, including the disconnected graphs in which no quark line connects the initial kaon and final two-pion states. These lattice operators are non-perturbatively renormalized using the Rome-Southampton method and the quadratic divergences are studied and removed. This is an important but notoriously difficult calculation, requiring high statistics on a large volume. In this paper we take a major step towards the computation of the physical $Ktopipi$ amplitudes by performing a complete calculation at unphysical kinematics with pions of mass 422,MeV at rest in the kaon rest frame. With this simplification we are able to resolve Re$(A_0)$ from zero for the first time, with a 25% statistical error and can develop and evaluate methods for computing the complete, complex amplitude $A_0$, a calculation central to understanding the $Delta =1/2$ rule and testing the standard model of CP violation in the kaon system.

We present our result for the $Ktopipi$ decay amplitudes for both the $Delta I=1/2$ and $3/2$ processes with the improved Wilson fermion action. Expanding on the earlier works by Bernard {it et al.} and by Donini {it et al.}, we show that mixings wit h four-fermion operators with wrong chirality are absent even for the Wilson fermion action for the parity odd process in both channels due to CPS symmetry. Therefore, after subtraction of an effect from the lower dimensional operator, a calculation of the decay amplitudes is possible without complications from operators with wrong chirality, as for the case with chirally symmetric lattice actions. As a first step to verify the possibility of calculations with the Wilson fermion action, we consider the decay amplitudes at an unphysical quark mass $m_K sim 2 m_pi$. Our calculations are carried out with $N_f=2+1$ gauge configurations generated with the Iwasaki gauge action and nonperturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermion action at $a=0.091,{rm fm}$, $m_pi=280,{rm MeV}$, and $m_K=580,{rm MeV}$ on a $32^3times 64$ ($La=2.9,{rm fm}$) lattice. For the quark loops in the penguin and disconnected contributions in the $I=0$ channel, the combined hopping parameter expansion and truncated solver method work very well for variance reduction. We obtain, for the first time with a Wilson-type fermion action, that ${rm Re}A_0 = 60(36) times10^{ -8},{rm GeV}$ and ${rm Im}A_0 =-67(56) times10^{-12},{rm GeV}$ for a matching scale $q^* =1/a$. The dependence on the matching scale $q^*$ for these values is weak.

This calculation is carried out on 480 gauge configurations in $N_f=2+1$ QCD generated over 12,000 trajectories with the Iwasaki gauge action and non -perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermion action at $a=0.091,{rm fm}$, $m_pi=280,{rm MeV}$ and $m_K=580,{rm MeV}$ on a $32^3times 64$ ($La=2.9,{rm fm}$) lattice.

We report a lattice QCD determination of the $pigamma to pipi$ transition amplitude for the $P$-wave, $I=1$ two-pion final state, as a function of the photon virtuality and $pipi$ invariant mass. The calculation was performed with $2+1$ flavors of cl over fermions at a pion mass of approximately $320$ MeV, on a $32^3 times 96$ lattice with $Lapprox 3.6$ fm. We construct the necessary correlation functions using a combination of smeared forward, sequential and stochastic propagators, and determine the finite-volume matrix elements for all $pipi$ momenta up to $|vec{P}|= sqrt{3} frac{2pi}{L}$ and all associated irreducible representations. In the mapping of the finite-volume to infinite-volume matrix elements using the Lellouch-Luscher factor, we consider two different parametrizations of the $pipi$ scattering phase shift. We fit the $q^2$ and $s$ dependence of the infinite-volume transition amplitude in a model-independent way using series expansions, and compare multiple different truncations of this series. Through analytic continuation to the $rho$ resonance pole, we also determine the $pigamma to rho$ resonant transition form factor and the $rho$ meson photocoupling, and obtain $|G_{rhopigamma}| = 0.0802(32)(20)$.
We describe the computation of the amplitude A_2 for a kaon to decay into two pions with isospin I=2. The results presented in the letter Phys.Rev.Lett. 108 (2012) 141601 from an analysis of 63 gluon configurations are updated to 146 configurations g iving Re$A_2=1.381(46)_{textrm{stat}}(258)_{textrm{syst}} 10^{-8}$ GeV and Im$A_2=-6.54(46)_{textrm{stat}}(120)_{textrm{syst}}10^{-13}$ GeV. Re$A_2$ is in good agreement with the experimental result, whereas the value of Im$A_2$ was hitherto unknown. We are also working towards a direct computation of the $Kto(pipi)_{I=0}$ amplitude $A_0$ but, within the standard model, our result for Im$A_2$ can be combined with the experimental results for Re$A_0$, Re$A_2$ and $epsilon^prime/epsilon$ to give Im$A_0/$Re$A_0= -1.61(28)times 10^{-4}$ . Our result for Im,$A_2$ implies that the electroweak penguin (EWP) contribution to $epsilon^prime/epsilon$ is Re$(epsilon^prime/epsilon)_{mathrm{EWP}} = -(6.25 pm 0.44_{textrm{stat}} pm 1.19_{textrm{syst}}) times 10^{-4}$.
