Abstract

We propose a practical way of circumventing the sign problem in lattice QCD simulations with the theta-vacuum term. This method is the reweighting method for QCD Lagrangian after the UA(1) transformation. In the Lagrangian, the P-odd mass term as a cause of the sign problem is minimized. In order to find out a good reference system in the reweighting method, we estimate the average reweighting factor by using the two-flavor NJL model and eventually find a good reference system.
