Sanity check for bound states in lattice QCD with L\"uscher's finite volume formula -- Exposing Symptoms of Fake Plateaux --
A sanity check rules out certain types of obviously false results, but does
not catch every possible error. After reviewing such a sanity check for
bound states with the L\"uscher's finite volume formula[1-3], we give further
evidences for the operator dependence of plateaux, a symptom of the fake
plateau problem, against the claim in [4]. We then present our critical
comments on [5] by NPLQCD: (i) Operator dependences of plateaux in NPL2013[6,7]
exist with the -values of 4--5%. (ii) The volume independence of plateaux in
NPL2013 does not prove their correctness. (iii) Effective range expansion (ERE)
fits in NPL2013 violate the physical pole condition. (iv) Ref.[5] is partly
based on new data and analysis different from the original ones[6,7]. (v) A new
ERE in Refs.[5,8] does not satisfy the L\"uscher's finite volume formula.

Fast Vacuum Decay into Quark Pairs in Strong Color Electric and Magnetic Fields
We study quark-pair creations in strong color electromagnetic fields. We
point out that, for massless quarks, the vacuum persistency probability per
unit space-time volume is zero, i.e., the quark-pair creation rate w is
infinite, in general homogeneous color electromagnetic fields, while it is
finite when the color magnetic field is absent. We find that the contribution
from the lowest Landau level (LLL) dominates this phenomenon. With an effective
theory of the LLL projection, we also discuss dynamics of the vacuum decay,
taking into account the back reaction of pair creations.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, contribution to the proceedings of International
