abstract
We present a calculation of the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_\mu^{\mathrm hvp}$, in lattice QCD employing dynamical up and down quarks. We focus on controlling the infrared regime of the vacuum polarization function. To this end we employ several complementary approaches, including Pad\'e fits, time moments and the time-momentum representation. We correct our results for finite-volume effects by combining the Gounaris-Sakurai parameterization of the timelike pion form factor with the L\"uscher formalism. On a subset of our ensembles we have derived an upper bound on the magnitude of quark-disconnected diagrams and found that they decrease the estimate for $a_\mu^{\mathrm hvp}$ by at most 2%. Our final result is $a_\mu^{\mathrm hvp}=(654\pm32\,{}^{+21}_{-23})\cdot 10^{-10}$, where the first error is statistical, and the second denotes the combined systematic uncertainty. Based on our findings we discuss the prospects for determining $a_\mu^{\mathrm hvp}$ with sub-percent precision.

Full dynamical QCD+QED simulations yield smaller uncertainties than the RM123 method for the intermediate-window HVP contribution at fixed lattice spacing, volume, and statistics.
Lattice QCD and tau-decay dispersive calculations of isospin-one HVP generally agree, except for a significant difference in the 2π−π+π0 four-pion mode contribution to window quantities.
Preliminary lattice QCD results compute hadronic contributions to Δα(Q²) and Δsin²θ_W(Q²) via spectral reconstruction on N_f=2+1+1 physical-mass HISQ ensembles to obtain continuum-extrapolated values across the full energy range.
The paper provides an overview of theoretical calculations for lepton anomalous magnetic moments arising from quantum corrections in the Standard Model.
