We analytically evaluate the expectation value of a baryonic Wilson loop in a holographic model of an SU(3) pure gauge theory. We then discuss three aspects of a static three-quark potential: an aspect of universality which concerns…
We study generic properties of strongly interacting matter at finite density as relevant to heavy-ion collisions at moderate beam energies or the physics of neutron stars and their mergers. Because of the fermion-sign problem in lattice…
Bound states of heavy $\bar{q}q$ quarks are reviewed within the context of QCD, paying attention to what can be derived from the theory with a reasonable degree of rigour. This is compared with the results of semiclassical arguments. Among…
Gauge invariant extended configurations are considered for the three fundamental (quarks) or adjoint (gluons) particles. For quarks it is shown that the Y-shaped configuration is the only possible. For adjoint sources both the Y-shaped and…
Temperature and baryon, charge, and strangeness chemical potentials characterize QCD matter under extreme conditions. Differences between these chemical potentials and their ratios probe conserved-charge correlations and the system's…

We simulate lattice QCD at non--zero baryon density and zero temperature in the quenched approximation, both in the scaling region and in the infinite coupling limit. We investigate the nature of the forbidden region -- the range of…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with a general number of colors, $\Nc$, provides a powerful theoretical laboratory to explore the dynamics of non-Abelian gauge theories. Although $\Nc =3$ does not look a large number, the $1/\Nc$ expansion…
We discuss the quenched limit of lattice QCD at non-zero baryon number density. We find evidence for a mixed phase that becomes broader with increasing baryon number. Although the action is explicitly Z(3) symmetric the Polyakov loop…
We present lattice QCD results of baryon-baryon potentials in S=-3 sector, i.e., \Xi\Sigma (I=3/2) potentials and \Xi\Lambda-\Xi\Sigma coupled channel potentials (I=1/2) by using the 2+1 flavor gauge configurations with almost the physical…

We revisit the short-range baryon-baryon potentials in the flavor SU(3) sector, using the constituent quark model. We employ the color Coulomb, linear confining, and color magnetic forces between two constituent quarks, and solve the…
We present results from studies of high temperature QCD with two flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks on $16^3\times 8$ lattices at a quark mass of $am_q=0.00625$ and on $24^3\times 12$ lattices at quark masses $am_q=0.008$ and 0.016. The value…
We introduce a new approach to analyze the phase diagram of QCD at finite chemical potential and temperature, test it in the Gross-Neveu model at finite baryon density, and apply it to the study of the chemical potential-temperature phase…
