This is the Lattice '95 review of recent progress towards accurate QCD simulations using very coarse lattices. This development could have revolutionary implications for low energy (nonperturbative) QCD.
Lattice QCD is the most reliable non-perturbative method in quantum field theory. In the last few years, some problems crucial to high energy experiments have been solved. We review some recent work done by the Chinese lattice community.
In quantum field theories, spectral densities are directly related to relevant physical observables. In Lattice QCD, their non-perturbative extraction from first principles requires the Inverse Laplace transform of Euclidean-time…
Neither the chiral limit nor finite baryon density can be simulated directly in lattice QCD, which severely limits our understanding of the QCD phase diagram. In this review I collect results for the phase structure in an extended parameter…
This is a pedagogical review of the lattice study of finite density QCD, which is intended to provide the minimum necessary contents, so that the paper may be used as the first reading for a newcomer to the field and also for those working…
We study the effective action for strong-coupling lattice QCD with one-component staggered fermions in the case of nonzero chemical potential and zero temperature. The structure of this action suggests that at large chemical potentials its…

Two approaches are pursued to determine the magnetization of the QCD vacuum at zero and nonzero temperatures using lattice simulations. The first method builds on pressure anisotropies which are induced by the magnetic field on the lattice.…
The method of analytic continuation from imaginary to real chemical potential is one of the most powerful tools to circumvent the sign problem in lattice QCD. Here we test this method in a theory, 2-color QCD, which is free from the sign…
I review recent progress in the determination of the QCD phase diagram at finite temperature, in investigations of the nature of the transition or crossover from the hadronic phase to the quark-gluon plasma phase and in the determination of…
We propose a method to study lattice QCD at finite temperature (T) and chemical potential (\mu). We compare the method with direct results and with the Glasgow method by using n_f=4 QCD at Im(\mu)\neq0. We locate the critical endpoint (E)…
State-of-the-art lattice QCD studies of hot and dense strongly interacting matter currently rely on extrapolation from zero or imaginary chemical potentials. The ill-posedness of numerical analytic continuation puts severe limitations on…
I discuss the zero temperature phase diagram of QCD, as a function of baryon density and strange quark mass. The noteworthy points are that at sufficiently high density chiral symmetry is always restored, and at low strange quark mass there…
