On the anti-canonical ring and varieties of Fano type
We study the anti-canonical ring of a projective variety and we characterise varieties of log Fano type depending on the singularities of these models
Mirage in Temporal Correlation functions for Baryon-Baryon Interactions in Lattice QCD
Single state saturation of the temporal correlation function is a key
condition to extract physical observables such as energies and matrix elements
of hadrons from lattice QCD simulations. A method commonly employed to check
the saturation is to seek for a plateau of the observables for large Euclidean
time. Identifying the plateau in the cases having nearby states, however, is
non-trivial and one may even be misled by a fake plateau. Such a situation
takes place typically for the system with two or more baryons. In this study,
we demonstrate explicitly the danger from a possible fake plateau in the
temporal correlation functions mainly for two baryons ( and ), and
three and four baryons ( and as well, employing
(2+1)-flavor lattice QCD at GeV on four lattice volumes with
2.9, 3.6, 4.3 and 5.8 fm. Caution is given for drawing conclusion on the
bound , and systems only based on the temporal correlation
functions.Comment: 32 pages, 13 figures, minor corrections, published version, typos

QCD and strongly coupled gauge theories : challenges and perspectives
We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a broad sweep of physical problems, in settings ranging from astrophysics and cosmology to strongly coupled, complex systems in particle and condensed-matter physics, as well as to searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. We also discuss how success in describing the strong interaction impacts other fields, and, in turn, how such subjects can impact studies of the strong interaction. In the course of the work we offer a perspective on the many research streams which flow into and out of QCD, as well as a vision for future developments.Peer reviewe
