534. Colour confinement in unquenched QCD

A disorder parameter detecting monopole condensation in the ground state of QCD is studied on the lattice for full QCD. We obtain evidence that the mechanism of confinement is dual superconductivity ,as for pure gauge theory. Contrary to the familiar parameters (Polyakov line ,chiral condensate) our disorder parameter is the same for quenched and unquenched theory.The presence of quarks is marginal, in agreement with the idea that the structure of the theory is Nc independent at large Nc.

536. New results on chiral gauge theories

Noncompact U(1) chiral gauge theories are defined on the lattice in the overlap formalism in any even Euclidean dimension. If anomalies cancel at one-loop perturbation theory gauge invariance can be made exact outside perturbation theory. If anomalies do not cancel, the gauge violation can be brought to a standard form. The distinction between the anomalous and non-anomalous cases in four space-time dimensions is explained. Although in both cases one cannot remove the cutoff fully, the dependence on the cutoff is different.

573. Numerical study of the Kugo-Ojima criterion and the Gribov problem in the Landau gauge

The first test of the Kugo-Ojima colour confinement criterion by the lattice Landau gauge QCD simulation is performed. The parameter $u^{ab}$ which is expected to be $-1\delta^{ab}$ for the confinement is found to be $-0.7\delta^{ab}$ in the strong coupling region, $\beta=5.5$, and its magnitude is close to 0.7 but slightly smaller in the weak coupling region, $\beta=6.0$, in $16^4$ lattice simulation. The simulation data are analysed also for the test of Zwanziger's theory developed for the Gribov problem in use of the horizon function, and discussions are given on the Gribov-Zwanziger theory including a critical comment on the justification of the formulation.

615. Dynamical quark effects in QCD on the lattice

Results of a systematic lattice QCD simulation with two flavors dynamical quarks are presented. Clear dynamical quark effects are observed in the light hadron mass spectrum, light quark masses, B meson decay constants, etc. In the light hadron mass spectrum, major parts of the discrepancy between quenched QCD and experiment are shown to be removed by two flavors of dynamical quarks. For the averaged mass of $u$, and $d$ quarks, we find $m_{ud}^{\bar{\rm MS}}(2GeV) = 3.5 \pm 0.3$ MeV, while for the $s$ quark mass, $m_{s}^{\bar{\rm MS}}(2GeV) = 90$--100 MeV. These vales are about 20--30\% smaller than previous estimates in the quenched approximation.

801. Gluon and quark properties from the lattice

We present lattice calculations of the gluon and quark propagators in Landau gauge in (quenched) QCD. For the gluon propogator both unimproved and order a^2 improved calculations on large volumes will be presented. We see strong evidence that the Landau gauge gluon propagator is infrared finite. At large momenta we observe the transition to perturbative behavior. Similar results are presented for the quark propagator with order a improvement. The dynamically generated infrared quark mass is clearly observed and found to be approximately 300MeV. The method for removing the dominant, tree-level lattice artefacts in these studies will be presented.

905. Applications of non-perturbative renormalization

A short survey of non-perturbative renormalization by means of numerical simulations in lattice field theory, with emphasis on some recent developments in applications to phenomenologically relevant quantities, is given. As an illustrative example I sketch the general concepts and a strategy for the determination of quark masses. Following these lines, results from a computation of the renormalization group invariant strange quark mass in the quenched approximation of QCD by the ALPHA and UKQCD Collaborations are presented and confronted with those of other approaches.

1059. Structure Functions on the Lattice

We compute the average momentum of a parton for a pion matrix element in the quenched approximation. The renormalization is performed fully non-perturbatively using the Schroedinger functional scheme and a careful continuum extrapolation is done. We compare the result, obtained in the MSbar scheme, with other approaches in the literature.

1063. Exact chiral symmetry on the lattice /the Ginsparg-Wilson relation and domain wall fermion

We discuss the structure of domain wall fermion in relation to the exact chiral symmetry based on the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. In domain wall QCD, quark fields on the boundary walls are indeed described by the effective four-dimensional Dirac operator which satisfies the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. In chiral case when the domain wall fermion couples to an interpolating five-dimensional gauge field, it can be regarded as a lattice implementation of the the eta-invariant and the effective action for chiral Ginsparg-Wilson fermions is reproduced by including a five-dimensional lattice Chern-Simons term.

1076. $B$ and $D$ Mesons in Lattice QCD

Computational and theoretical developments in lattice QCD calculations of $B$ and $D$ mesons are surveyed. Several topical examples are given: decay constants ($f_B$, $f_{D_s}$, etc.); form factors needed to determine $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$; bag parameters for the mass and width differences of the $B$ mesons; and new ideas for calculating the HQET parameters $\bar{\Lambda}$ and $\lambda_1$. Prospects for removing the uncertainties from the ``quenched approximation'' are discussed.
