Equation of state
3
We can compute the energy of a matter whose constituents are neutrons and hyperons (sort of “heavy” neutrons), in analogy to what is don for instance for a liquid metal or electron gas with impurities.
General relativity equations allow us to connect the equation of state of matter to the structure of compact stars (the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equations). These predictions must be compared with astrophysical observations on masses and radii.

Can we really constrain 𝛬NN interaction from hyper nuclear data?
In hypernuclei it is possible that the 𝛬NN interaction is not well constrained, especially in the isospin triplet channel:
np
nn
𝝠 𝝠
We are doing the exercise of re-projecting the interaction in the isospin singlet and triplet channels and try to explore the dependence of the hypernuclei binding energy on the relative strength.
⇤NN potential resolved in the NN isospin singlet and triplet
F. Pederiva
The ~⌧i · ~⌧j part of the three-body potential can be written as:
v2⇡,P = �CP6 {Xi�, X�j}~⌧i · ~⌧j
v2⇡,S = CSO2⇡,Sij� ~⌧i · ~⌧j
We want to rewrite these contributions in such a way that they are splitted intoan isospin triplet and an isospin singlet channels, adding then a parameter tocontrol the first with respect to the second.
As always, let us notice that:
~⌧i · ~⌧j = 1� 4PT=0ij = 4PT=1
ij � 3.
We can sum the two expressions multiplying the first by 3, and obtain thefollowing identity:
~⌧i · ~⌧j = �3PT=0ij + PT=1
ij
Now, defining:
vPij� ⌘ vPij�(CS , CP ) = �CP
6{Xi�, X�j}+ CSO
2⇡,Sij�
the isospin-dependent three body potential then becomes:
v⌧⌧ij� = �3vPij�PT=0ij + vPij�P
T=1ij .
We define a new potential by inserting a parameter A that controls the strengthof the potential projected on the isospin triplet channel:
v⌧⌧ij� = �3vPij�PT=0ij +AvPij�P
T=1ij .
A = 0 is the case in which the isospin triplet channel is suppressed. A = 1 is thepresent potential case. However, I think that in this context A could assumearbitrarily large values, and even change sign. Actually, it can be inferred thatif PT=0
ij is the most contributing channel in hypernuclei as expected, the expec-
tation of vPij� should be mostly negative in order to give the observed reductionof B(⇤). This means that under this hypothesis some repulsion might be gainedin neutron matter withouta↵ecting the results in hypernuclei by playing withnegative values of A.
This potential can be easily recast in the usual form useful for AFDMCcalculations in this way:
v⌧⌧ij� =3
4(A� 1)vPij� +
1
4(3 +A)vPij�~⌧i · ~⌧j .
Notice that there is a contribution that has to be added to the isospin indepen-dent part of the interaction as well.
Please check coe�cients, signs etc.

The idea is to project the ground state of the Hamiltonian restricted to the model Hilbert space chosen by means of a stochastic implementation of the power method.To this end we define the usual projection operator:
P = 1��⌧(H � ET )
ET is a trial eigenvalue used to preserve the normalization of the projected state.
Problems • As the number of state i the model space and/or the particle number
increases the algorithm becomes very inefficient (very small time steps are required)
• For a generic Hamiltonian the matrix elements among two states in the model space can be negative, and the algorithm breaks down.
Possible solution: • IMPORTANCE SAMPLING! In particular we can use wave functions from
Coupled Clusters calculations
QMC in momentum space
Previously published calculations did notinclude 3p-3h correlations in the CC wavefunction. We are now on the way of using inan efficient way CCDT(1) (i.e. triplets at PT level). Extension to finite systems(thereby projecting from CCSD or CCSDT(1)wave functions is in progress (Masterthesis of Paolo Mori)

One of the most interesting features ofthis algorithm is the possibility of computingvery accurate momentum distributions, which might be a useful input for othercalculations.
Effective π-less theories

Plan: build a π-less effective Hamiltonian in coordinate space on few-body system and check the results for nuclei with larger masses. Test: a nuclear physics with mπ=800MeV - LQCD calculations available for A=3,4
