We consider one-dimensional discrete Dirac models in vanishing random environments. In a previous work [6], we showed that these models exhibit a rich phase diagram in terms of their spectrum as a function of the rate of decay of the random…
Above the QCD chiral crossover temperature, the low-lying eigenmodes of the Dirac operator are localised, while moving up in the spectrum states become extended. This localisation/delocalisation transition has been shown to be a genuine…

We derive an analytical gauge-invariant formula between the Polyakov loop $L_P$ and the Dirac eigenvalues $\lambda_n$ in QCD, i.e., $L_P \propto \sum_n \lambda_n^{N_t -1} \langle n|\hat U_4|n \rangle$, in ordinary periodic square lattice…
