Spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking of lattice QCD with massless dynamical quarks
One of the most challenging issues in QCD is the investigation of spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking, which is characterized by the non-vanishing chiral condensate when the bare fermion mass is zero. In stan...

Bound states and critical behavior of the Yukawa potential
We investigate the bound states of the Yukawa potential V (r)=−λexp(−αr)/r, using different algorithms: solving the Schrödinger equation numerically and our Monte Carlo Hamiltonian approach. There is a critical α...
