We examine the problem of constructing spectral representations for two point correlation functions, needed to write down the QCD sum rules in the medium. We suggest constructing them from the Feynman diagrams for the correlation functions.…
We revisit QCD with three mass-degenerate quark flavors at an imaginary isospin chemical potential set to 4 pi T/3. This choice corresponds to a special point in the parameter space, where the theory possesses an exact Z(3) center symmetry.…
