Chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking play an important role both in the light hadron and heavy hadron systems. The chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) is the low energy effective field theory of the QCD. In this work, we shall…
Lattice QCD with staggered fermions can be formulated in dual variables to address the finite baryon density sign problem. In the past we have performed simulations in the strong coupling regime, including leading order gauge corrections.…
