Key Points

To establish a discrete, non-perturbative computational framework using lattice gauge theory for the numerical extraction of fundamental parameters like heavy-quark masses.
Regularized continuous spacetime onto a hypercubic lattice with spacing a and hyperoctahedral point-group symmetry B4.
Formulated gauge field interactions using SU(3) link variables and the Wilson plaquette action.
Extracted heavy-quark masses using meson mass combinations and one-loop lattice perturbation theory corrections.
Lattice regularization replaces continuous spacetime with a discrete grid, enabling non-perturbative numerical simulations of quantum chromodynamics.
Meson mass equations combined with one-loop perturbative corrections allow systematic extraction of heavy-quark mass parameters from elementary plaquette interactions.
