Potentials between heavy-light mesons from lattice and inverse scattering theory

We extend our investigation of heavy-light meson-meson interactions to a system consisting of a heavy-light meson and the corresponding antiparticle. An effective potential is obtained from meson-antimeson Green-functions computed in a quenched simulation with staggered fermions. Comparisons with a simulation using an $O(a^2)$ tree-level and tadpole improved gauge action and a full QCD simulation show that lattice discretization errors and dynamical quarks have no drastic influence. Calculations from inverse scattering theory propose a similar shape for $K\bar{K}$ potentials.Comment: 3 pages, 5 EPS figures, Poster presented at "Lattice'97", to appear in the proceeding

Analytic solutions of the Madelung equation

We present analytic self-similar solutions for the one, two and three dimensional Madelung hydrodynamical equation for a free particle. There is a direct connection between the zeros of the Madelung fluid density and the magnitude of the quantum potential.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

Two-body spectra of pseudoscalar mesons with an O(a2)O(a^2)--improved lattice action using Wilson fermions

We extend our calculations with the second-order tree-level and tadpole improved next-nearest-neighbor action to meson-meson systems. Correlation matrices built from interpolating fields representing two pseudoscalar mesons (pion-pion) with relative momenta p are diagonalized, and the mass spectrum is extracted. Link variable fuzzing and operator smearing at both sinks and sources is employed. Calculations are presented for two values of the hopping parameter. The spectrum is used to discuss the residual interaction in the meson-meson system.Comment: 3 pages, 4 EPS figures, Poster presented at "Lattice'97", to appear in the proceeding

Spectral properties of a two-orbital Anderson impurity model across a non-Fermi liquid fixed point

We study by NRG the spectral properties of a two-orbital Anderson impurity model in the presence of an exchange splitting which follows either regular or inverted Hund's rules. The phase diagram contains a non-Fermi liquid fixed point separating a screened phase, where conventional Kondo effect occurs, from an unscreened one, where the exchange-splitting takes care of quenching the impurity degrees of freedom. On the Kondo screened side close to this fixed point the impurity density of states shows a narrow Kondo-peak on top of a broader resonance. This narrow peak transforms in the unscreened phase into a narrow pseudo-gap inside the broad resonance. Right at the fixed point only the latter survives. The fixed point is therefore identified by a jump of the density of states at the chemical potential. We also show that particle-hole perturbations which simply shift the orbital energies do not wash out the fixed point, unlike those perturbations which hybridize the two orbitals. Consequently the density-of-state jump at the chemical potential remains finite even away from particle-hole symmetry, and the pseudo-gap stays pinned at the chemical potential, although it is partially filled in. We also discuss the relevance of these results for lattice models which map onto this Anderson impurity model in the limit of large lattice-coordination. Upon approaching the Mott metal-insulator transition, these lattice models necessarily enter a region with a local criticality which reflects the impurity non-Fermi liquid fixed point. However, unlike the impurity, the lattice can get rid of the single-impurity fixed-point instability by spontaneously developing bulk-coherent symmetry-broken phases, which we identify for different lattice models.Comment: 43 pages, 11 figures.

Coupled-Cluster Theory Revisited. Part II: Analysis of the single-reference Coupled-Cluster equations

In a series of two articles, we propose a comprehensive mathematical framework for Coupled-Cluster-type methods. In this second part, we analyze the nonlinear equations of the single-reference Coupled-Cluster method using topological degree theory. We establish existence results and qualitative information about the solutions of these equations that also sheds light on the numerically observed behavior. In particular, we compute the topological index of the zeros of the single-reference Coupled-Cluster mapping. For the truncated Coupled-Cluster method, we derive an energy error bound for approximate eigenstates of the Schrodinger equation.Comment: Published in: ESAIM: M2AN Volume 57, Number 2, March-April 2023, Pages 545-58

Meson-meson interactions -- from static to dynamic valence quarks

A method for the extraction of an effective meson-meson potential from Green functions, which can be obtained from a lattice simulation, is presented. Simulations are carried out for compact QED and QCD in four dimensions using the quenched approximation and the hopping parameter expansion. In a further study, a heavy-light meson is considered employing a conjugate gradient algorithm for the light propagators. Due to the Pauli exclusion principle, the results for QED indicate the existence of a hard core, but for QCD there is strong attraction at small meson distances.Comment: 4 pages, uuencoded gziped postscript file, contribution to LATTICE'95, Melbourne, Australia (list of authors completed
