We study finite-temperature N=1 SU(2) super Yang-Mills theory, compactified on a spatial circle of size L with supersymmetric boundary conditions. In the semiclassical small-L regime, a deconfinement transition occurs at T_c <<1/L. The…
QCD monopoles are magnetically charged quasiparticles whose Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) at $T<T_c$ creates electric confinement and flux tubes. The "magnetic scenario" of QCD proposes that scattering on the non-condensed component of…
We analyze the fate of the unbroken SU(2) color gauge interactions for 2 light flavors color superconductivity at non zero temperature. Using a simple model we compute the deconfining/confining critical temperature and show that is smaller…
Finite temperature Euclidean SU(2) lattice gauge fields generated in the confinement phase close to the deconfinement phase transition are subjected to cooling. The aim is to identify long-living, almost-classical local excitations which…
We investigate low-lying fermion modes in SU(2) gauge theory at temperatures above the phase transition. Both staggered and overlap spectra reveal transitions from chaotic (random matrix) to integrable (Poissonian) behavior accompanied by…
The deconfining transition in $SU(3)$ gauge theory, traditionally interpreted through the Gross-Witten-Wadia (GWW) model as a sharp third-order phase transition in the large-$N_c$ limit, appears as a smooth crossover in lattice QCD. This…
I show that a finite density of near-zero localised Dirac modes in the chirally broken phase of a gauge theory can lead to the disappearance of the massless excitations predicted by the Goldstone theorem at finite temperature.
This study explores confinement-deconfinement transition properties of SU($3$) Yang--Mills theory under weak accelerations at finite temperatures, using first-principles lattice simulations. The system is formulated in the Rindler…
Anderson localization of particles -- the complete halt of wave transport through multiple scattering and phase coherence -- is a paradigmatic manifestation of quantum interference in disordered media. In three dimensions, the scaling…
We propose a new viewpoint on the study of localization transitions in disordered quantum systems, showing how critical properties can be seen also as a geometric transition in the data space generated by the classically encoded…
We pinpoint the spectral decomposition for the Anderson tight-binding model with an unbounded random potential on the Bethe lattice of sufficiently large degree. We prove that there exist a finite number of mobility edges separating…
I propose a simple model of the distribution of the small eigenvalues of the QCD Dirac operator well above the finite temperature phase transition where chiral symmetry is restored and the spectral density at zero vanishes. Assuming the…
Ion temperature clamping -- the saturation of the ion temperature regardless of heating power -- is observed across stellarator experiments. We propose a minimal model based on Anderson localisation. Starting from a reduced fluid model for…
We analyze the finite temperature phase diagram of$QC$ with fermions in the adjoint representation. The simulations performed with four dynamical Majorana fermions show that the deconfinement and chiral phase transitions occur at two…
In the previous work, we have shown that the SU(2) chiral symmetry recovered above the critical temperature gives a strong constraint on the Dirac eigenvalue spectrum and this constraint is strong enough for a set of anomalous U(1) chiral…
The localization behavior of the Anderson model with anisotropic hopping integral t for weakly coupled planes and weakly coupled chains is investigated both numerically with the transfer matrix method and analytically within the…
