Non leptonic two-body decay amplitudes from finite volume calculations
  We discuss the quantization of the energy levels of two-particle scattering states in a finite volume in the case of Bloch-type boundary conditions. A generalization of the Luescher quantization condition is obtained that can be used in order to calculate the scattering phases, resulting for example by the strong elastic interaction of two pions, at fixed physical momentum transfers on a sequence of volumes of growing sizes. We also give a generalization of the Lellouch-Luescher formula to be used to extract the physical decay rate for a kaon decaying into two pions below the inelastic threshold from finite volume calculations. The formula is valid up to corrections exponentially vanishing in the volume. By using this formula the calculation can in principle be performed on different finite volumes of growing sizes in order to keep under control the corrections.
