A new algorithm for numerical simulation of Langevin equations
Abstract Formulated is a new systematic method for obtaining higher order corrections in numerical simulation of stochastic differential equations (SDEs), i.e., Langevin equations. Random walk step algorithms within a given order of finite Δt , are obtained so as to reproduce within that order a corresponding transition density of the Fokker-Planck equations, in the weak Taylor approximation scheme [1]. A great advantage of our method is its straightforwardness such that direct perturbative calculations produce the algorithm as an end result, so that the procedure is tractable by computer. Examples in general form for curved space cases as well as flat space cases are given in some order of approximations. Simulations are performed for specific examples of U(1) system and SU(2) systems, respectively.

Numerical studies of confinement in the lattice Landau gauge
Critical conjectures on confinement in the Landau gauge is numerically tested in focus to Gribov copy effects. One of the subjects is of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion and the other is of various viewpoints in the Gribov-Zwanziger theory. We use the smearing gauge as a reference gauge free of Gribov copy, and performed three types of simulations, log U, U-linear and log U in the smearing gauge. It is found that Gribov copy effect on the Kugo-Ojima parameter is small. log U and U-linear simulations yield only global scale factor difference in gluon propagator, but nontrivial difference of momentum behaviour in ghost propagator, and about 10% difference in Kugo-Ojima parameter. The horizon function defined by Zwanziger is evaluated in three types of gauge field and compared. All data show the negative horizon function as expected.

Roles of the quark field in the infrared lattice Coulomb gauge and Landau gauge QCD
Fac of Infor Sci; Utsunomiya Univ, Utsunomiya, 320-8585 JapanE-mail:nakajima@is.utsunomiya-u.ac.jpThe effective coupling of QCD is measured by using the gauge conﬁgurations produced by theMILC collaboration in which the Kogut Susskind (KS) fermion is incorporated and by using thatproducedby the QCDOC collaborationin which the domain wall fermion (DWF) is incorporated.We ﬁx the gauge to the Landau gauge and to the Coulomb gauge. Th e infrared effective couplingin the Coulomb gauge agrees with the recent extraction at JLab, but that in the Landau gaugeshows infrared suppression. The suppression is expected to be due to the color anti-symmetricghost propagator which in the unquenched conﬁgurations has stronger infrared singularity thanthe color diagonal ghost propagator. The Coulomb form factor in the infrared depends on the kindof the fermion incorporated in the system and the temperature.The quark has the effect of quenching randomness and the ﬂuct uation of the color anti-symmetricghost propagator is reduced in the unquenched conﬁguration , and the Kugo-Ojima parameterc iscloser to 1 in the unquenched conﬁguration than in the quench ed conﬁguration.The XXV International Symposium on Lattice Field TheoryJuly 30 - August 4 2007Regensburg, Germany

Test of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion in the lattice landau gauge
We present the first results of numerical test of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion in the lattice Landau gauge. The Kugo-Ojima criterion of colour confinement in the BRS formulation of the continuum gauge theory is given by uba(0) = −δba, where 
∫dXeip(x−)〈O|TDμca(X)g(Av×c)b(Y)|O〉=(gμvPμPvp2)Uba(p2). (∗) 
 
 
We measured the lattice version of uba(0) in use of 1/(−∂D (A)) where Dμ(A) is a lattice covariant derivative in the new definition of the gauge field as U = eA. We obtained that uba(0) is consistent with −cδba, c = 0.7 in SU(3) quenched simulation data of β = 5.5, on 84 and 124. We report the β dependence and finite-size effect of c.

Spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry in a vector-gluon model
Solutions of the self-consistent equation for fermion propagator in a vector-gluon model are fully examined. The equation is characterized by a set of parameters, i.e., the coupling constant g, the bare mass of the fermion mo and the cutoff A. It is proved that with a suitable gauge chosen, the equation without ~utoff has solutions ·only in the case mo=O, It is then shown that, if g'/4n Bn, the "normal-state" solution for the equation without cutoff, even if it existed, should necessarily have an unphysical singularity. This fact implies that the "normal-state" solution becomes unstable for a su.fficiently large value of g'. § l. Introduction The. reason for success of low energy theorems obtained by current algebra and PCAC-treatment may be well understood in terms of chiral symmetry in which the pseudoscalar mesons play a special role among hadtons as the Nambu­ Goldstone (NG) bosons1l transforming nonlinearly under chiral transformation. On the other hand, in the composite hadron models based on SU(3) or SU(6), it is clear that there is no vital distinction between pseudoscalar mesons and others such as vector- and tensor-mesons. It is therefore worth expecting that the pseudoscalar NG bosons can also be interpreted as the bound states in con­ formity with the viewpoint of the composite model. . This homogeneity and· heterogeneity ot the pseudoscalar mesons to other mesons should rather be in­ vestigated by comparing their internal structure with composite particles· . . In this respect it would be meaningful to study a model in which spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is realized by a composite NG boson: The Nambu­ Jona-Lasinio model2l is known as such an example. However, the use of chain approximation and the momentum cutoff inevitable for the local four-fermion

Vortex-type Half-BPS Solitons in ABJM Theory
We study Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) theory without and with mass deformation. It is shown that maximally supersymmetry preserving, D-term, and F-term mass deformations of single mass parameter are equivalent. We obtain vortex-type halfBPS equations and the corresponding energy bound. For the undeformed ABJM theory, the resulting half-BPS equation is the same as that in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and no finite energy regular BPS solution is found. For the mass-deformed ABJM theory, the halfBPS equations for U(2)×U(2) case reduce to the vortex equation in Maxwell-Higgs theory, which supports static regular multi-vortex solutions. In U(N)×U(N) case with N > 2 the nonabelian vortex equation of Yang-Mills-Higgs theory is obtained.

Suzaku discovery of Fe K-shell line from the O-rich SNR G292.0+1.8
We report the Suzaku/XIS results of the Galactic oxygen-rich supernova remnant (SNR), G292.0+1.8, a remnant of a core-collapse supernova. The X-ray spectrum of G292.0+1.8 consists of two type plasmas, one is in collisional ionization equilibrium (CIE) and the other is in non-equilibrium ionization (NEI). The CIE plasma has nearly solar abundances, and hence would be originated from the circumstellar and interstellar mediums. The NEI plasma has super-solar abundances, and the abundance pattern indicates that the plasma originates from the supernova ejecta with a main sequence of 30-35 Msolar. Iron K-shell line at energy of 6.6 keV is detected for the first time in the NEI plasma.

Lectures on instanton counting
These notes have two parts. The first is a study of Nekrasov's deformed partition functions $Z(\ve_1,\ve_2,\vec{a};\q,\vec{\tau})$ of N=2 SUSY Yang-Mills theories, which are generating functions of the integration in the equivariant cohomology over the moduli spaces of instantons on $\mathbb R^4$. The second is review of geometry of the Seiberg-Witten curves and the geometric engineering of the gauge theory, which are physical backgrounds of Nekrasov's partition functions. 
The first part is continuation of math.AG/0306198, where we identified the Seiberg-Witten prepotential with $Z(0,0,\vec{a};\q,0)$. 
We put higher Casimir operators to the partition function and clarify their relation to the Seiberg-Witten $u$-plane. We also determine the coefficients of $\ve_1\ve_2$ and $(\ve_1^2+\ve_2^2)/3$ (the genus 1 part) of the partition function, which coincide with two measure factors $A$, $B$ appeared in the $u$-plane integral. 
The proof is based on the blowup equation which we derived in the previous paper.

Instantons in Deformed Super Yang-Mills Theories
We study the instanton effective action in deformed four-dimensional N=2 and N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories. These deformed gauge theories are defined on the D-brane world-volume in the presence of constant, self-dual Ramond-Ramond (R-R) 3-form field strength background $\mathcal{F}$ which is scaled as $(2 \pi \alpha')^{1/2} \mathcal{F} = fixed$ in the zero-slope limit $\alpha' \to 0$. The instanton effective action is obtained by solving equations of motion of the deformed N=2 SYM action. We show that this effective action correctly reproduces the string theory result derived from D3/D(-1)-branes system in the lowest order of the backgrounds and gauge coupling constant.

Instanton counting and Donaldson invariants
For a smooth projective toric surface we determine the Donaldson invariants and their wallcrossing in terms of the Nekrasov partition function. Using the solution of the Nekrasov conjecture (33, 38, 3) and its refinement (34), we apply this result to give a generating function for the wallcrossing of Donaldson invariants of good walls of simply connected projective surfaces with b+ = 1 in terms of modular forms. This formula was proved earlier in (19) more generally for simply connected 4-manifolds with b+ = 1, assuming the Kotschick-Morgan conjecture and it was also derived by physical arguments in (31).
