A framework for the calculation of the $\Delta N\gamma^*$ transition   form factors on the lattice
  Using the non-relativistic effective field theory framework in a finite volume, we discuss the extraction of the $\Delta N\gamma^*$ transition form factors from lattice data. A counterpart of the L\"uscher approach for the matrix elements of unstable states is formulated. In particular, we thoroughly discuss various kinematic settings, which are used in the calculation of the above matrix element on the lattice. The emerging L\"uscher-Lellouch factor and the analytic continuation of the matrix elements into the complex plane are also considered in detail. A full group-theoretical analysis of the problem is made, including the partial-wave mixing and projecting out the invariant form factors from data.
