We discuss the properties of the two- and three-flavor quark-meson diquark (QMD) model as a renormalizable low-energy effective model for color superconductivity in dense QCD. The effective degrees of freedom are scalars, pseudo-scalars,…

Strong coupling lattice QCD in the dual representation allows to study the full $\mu$-$T$ phase diagram, due to the mildness of the finite density sign problem. Such simulations have been performed in the chiral limit, both at finite $N_t$…
