We are simulating SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with four flavours of dynamical quarks in the fundamental representation of SU(2) `colour' at finite chemical potential, mu for quark number, as a model for QCD at finite baryon number density. In…
Non perturbative results from lattice QCD will be discussed, namely: Vacuum Condensates and QCD Sum Rules; $U_A(1)$ and Topology; Confinement of Color.
We discuss a random matrix theory that was originally constructed to describe two-color QCD at low density in the phase with a nonzero chiral condensate. With a particular choice of a parameter, the same random matrix theory also describes…
In this proceeding we present our first results of the study of the QCD Equation of State at non-zero baryon density and in external magnetic field. We focused on the first three non-vanishing expansion coefficients of pressure in chemical…
Current status of theoretical researches on the QCD phase diagram at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential is reviewed with special emphasis on the origin of various phases and their symmetry breaking patterns. Topics include;…
We investigate hadron spectra in 2-color QCD using lattice simulation with $N_{f}=2$ at low temperature and finite density in which there appears not only the hadronic phase but also the superfluid phase. We first calculate the pion and rho…
Using DLCQ as a nonperturbative method, we test Fock-space truncations in ${\rm QCD}_{1+1}$ by studying the mass spectra of hadrons in colour SU(2) and SU(3) at finite harmonic resolution $K$. We include $q\bar q q\bar q$ states for mesons…
The authors of a recent paper (PRA \textbf{87}, 013613 (2013)) argued that in fermionic systems with d-wave pairing the speed of sound is nonanalytic across the BCS-BEC crossover at the point where the chemical potential vanishes,…
Based on CLS simulations with 2+1 flavors and open boundaries we present first results of the baryon spectrum. We report on the status of our effort related to these simulations and the chiral extrapolation to the physical point.
We use QCD sum rules to study the masses of the baryons $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_b$. We work with a current where the strange and the light quarks are in a relative spin zero, at leading order in $\alpha_s$. We consider the contributions of…
We study one-flavor $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ and $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ lattice QCD in ($1+1$) dimensions at zero temperature and finite density using matrix product states and the density matrix renormalization group. We compute physical observables…
The lattice simulations of $QC_2D$ with two flavors of staggered fermions and non-zero quark chemical potential $\mu_q$ have been performed. Dependencies of the Polyakov loop, chiral condensate and baryon number density on $\mu_q$ were…
We review the history of the critical point in the QCD phase diagram, baryon density vs. temperature. In particular we discuss the different theoretical approaches to this problem.
The two-flavor color superconductivity is examined over a wide range of baryon density with a single model. To study the structural change of Cooper pairs, quark correlation in the color superconductor is calculated both in the momentum…
In this work, we discuss recent results obtained with the application of the medium separation scheme (MSS) in different contexts where a clear violation of the conformal limit for the speed of sound at finite density has been observed in…
Bound upsilon states and their decays provide a unique laboratory for testing QCD, LQCD, and quarkonium potential models. I review recent results, some of which are significant improvements in precision over previous measurements and others…
I review some of the recent progress in QCD at high temperature and density, with a focus on the nature of the high-temperature transition; cold and dense matter; and hadron properties and transport coefficients at high temperature.
In these lectures we provide an introduction to the phase structure of QCD. We begin with a brief discussion of QCD, the symmetries of QCD, and what we mean by a ``phase of QCD''. In the main part of the lectures we discuss the phase…
A deeper understanding of QCD matter at strong coupling remains challenging due to its non-perturbative nature. To this end, we study a two-flavor holographic hard-wall model to investigate the properties of QCD at finite-density and zero…
In this talk, we give a short review of our recent works on studying the singly heavy baryon, doubly heavy baryon, and triply heavy baryon spectra from QCD sum rules.
