In Ref. [1], a method was proposed to calculate QED corrections to hadronic self energies from lattice QCD without power-law finite-volume errors. In this paper, we extend the method to processes which occur at second-order in the weak interaction and in which there is a massless (or almost massless) leptonic propagator. We demonstrate that, in spite of the presence of the propagator of an almost massless electron, such an infinite-volume reconstruction procedure can be used to obtain the amplitude for the rare kaon decay $K^+topi^+ ubar u$ from a lattice quantum chromodynamics computation with only exponentially small finite-volume corrections.

In Carrasco et al. we have recently proposed a method to calculate $O(e^2)$ electromagnetic corrections to leptonic decay widths of pseudoscalar mesons. The method is based on the observation that the infrared divergent contributions (that appear at intermediate stages of the calculation and that cancel in physical quantities thanks to the Bloch-Nordsieck mechanism) are universal, i.e. depend on the charge and the mass of the meson but not on its internal structure. In this talk we perform a detailed analysis of the finite-volume effects associated with our method. In particular we show that also the leading $1/L$ finite-volume effects are universal and perform an analytical calculation of the finite-volume leptonic decay rate for a point-like meson.

Standard lattice calculations in flavour physics or in studies of hadronic structure are based on the evaluation of matrix elements of local composite operators between hadronic states or the vacuum. In this talk I discuss developments aimed at the c omputation of long-distance, and hence non-local, contributions to such processes. In particular, I consider the calculation of the $K_L$-$K_S$ mass difference $Delta m_K=m_{K_L}-m_{K_S}$ and the amplitude for the rare-kaon decay processes $Ktopiell^+ell^-$, where the lepton $ell=e$ or $mu$. Lattice calculations of the long-distance contributions to the indirect $CP$-violating parameter $epsilon_K$ and to the rare decays $Ktopi ubar u$ are also beginning. Finally I discuss the possibility of including $O(alpha)$ electromagnetic effects in computations of leptonic and semileptonic decay widths, where the novel feature is the presence of infrared divergences. This implies that contributions to the width from processes with a real photon in the final state must be combined with those with a virtual photon in the amplitude so that the infrared divergences cancel by the Bloch-Nordsieck mechanism. I present a proposed procedure for lattice computations of the $O(alpha)$ contributions with control of the cancellation of the infrared divergences.
The authors of ref. Phys.Rev. D94 (2016) no.1, 014502 reported about a careful analysis of the impact of lattice artifacts on the $SU(3)$ gauge-field propagators. In particular, they found that the low-momentum behavior of the renormalized propagator s depends on the lattice bare coupling and interpreted this fact as the result of it being affected by finite lattice spacing artifacts. We do not share this interpretation and present here a different and more suitable explanation for these results.
Spatially non-local matrix elements are useful lattice-QCD observables in a variety of contexts, for example in determining hadron structure. To quote credible estimates of the systematic uncertainties in these calculations, one must understand, amon g other things, the size of the finite-volume effects when such matrix elements are extracted from numerical lattice calculations. In this work, we estimate finite-volume effects for matrix elements of non-local operators, composed of two currents displaced in a spatial direction by a distance $xi$. We find that the finite-volume corrections depend on the details of the matrix element. If the external state is the lightest degree of freedom in the theory, e.g.~the pion in QCD, then the volume corrections scale as $ e^{-m_pi (L- xi)} $, where $m_pi$ is the mass of the light state. For heavier external states the usual $e^{- m_pi L}$ form is recovered, but with a polynomial prefactor of the form $L^m/|L - xi|^n$ that can lead to enhanced volume effects. These observations are potentially relevant to a wide variety of observables being studied using lattice QCD, including parton distribution functions, double-beta-decay and Compton-scattering matrix elements, and long-range weak matrix elements.
We study properties of the finite temperature quark propagator by using the SU(3) quenched lattice simulation in the Landau gauge and report numerical results of the standard Wilson quark case as well as the improved clover one. The mass function in the deconfinement phase is different from that of the confinement phase, especially at low momentum regions.
