INTRODUCTION starting from Lagrangian Main Problems: starting from Lagrangian (1)obtain hadron spectrum, (2)calculate various matrix elements, (3) describe phase transitions, and phase diagram (4) explain confinement of color
INTRODUCTION The main difficulty is the absence of analytical methods, the interactions are strong and only computer simulations give results starting from the first principles. The force between quark and antiquark is 12 tones
INTRODUCTION Methods Imaginary time t→it Space-time discretization Thus we get from functional integral the statistical theory in four dimensions
INTRODUCTION The statistical theory in four dimensions can be simulated by Monte-Carlo methods The typical multiplicities of integrals are We have to invert matrices 10 8 x 10 8 The cost of simulation of one configuration is: Improved Wilson fermions
INTRODUCTION Three limits Lattice spacing Lattice size Quark mass Typical values Extrapolation + Chiral perturbation theory
INTRODUCTION Example of extrapolation
