For A nucleons, the matrix is A by A. For the leading-order calculation,
if there is no pion coupling and the quantum state is an isospin singlet
then
This shows the determinant is real. Actually we can show that the
determinant is positive semi-definite

MÁ= ¸Á
Consider an eigenvector
~Á = ¿2Á¤
Let us define a new vector
M~Á=M¿2Á¤ = ¿2¿2M¿2Á
¤ = ¿2M¤Á¤
Note that
= ¿2 (MÁ)¤= ¿2 (¸Á)
¤= ¸¤¿2Á
¤ = ¸¤ ~Á
Note also that the two vectors are orthogonal
~ÁyÁ = (¿2Á¤)yÁ = ÁT¿
y2Á = Á
T¿2Á = 0
So complex eigenvalues come in conjugate pairs, and the real spectrum
is doubly-degenerate

Promising but relatively new tool that combines the framework of
effective field theory and computational lattice methods
Potentially wide applications to zero and nonzero temperature
simulations of cold atoms, light nuclei, neutron matter
Improve accuracy – higher order, smaller lattice spacing, larger
volume, more nucleons
Include Coulomb effects and isospin breaking
Compute nucleon-nucleus scattering, nucleus-nucleus scattering
