The glueballs lead to gluon and QCD monopole condensations as by-products of color confinement. A color dielectric function $G(|\phi|)$ coupled with Abelian gauge field is properly defined to mediate the glueball interactions at confining…
Discussed is how non-perturbative properties of quark gluon plasma, recently discovered in RHIC experiment, can be related to the change of properties of scalar and pseudoscalar glueballs. We set up a model with the Cornwall-Soni's…

Inspired in the AdS/CFT correspondence, a variety of holographic phenomenological models have been proposed in the last years to describe non-perturbative aspects of strong interactions. These models are denominated as AdS/QCD. In this work…
The theory of confinement and deconfinement is discussed as based on the properties of the QCD vacuum. The latter are described by field correlators of colour-electric and colour-magnetic fields in the vacuum, which can be calculated…
The lattice QCD studies indicate that the critical temperature $T_c \simeq 260-280$ MeV of the deconfinement phase transition in quenched QCD is considerably smaller than the lowest-lying glueball mass $m_{\rm G} \simeq 1500-1700$ MeV,…
The cosmological QCD phase transition is studied in terms of the color confinement at finite temperature using the dual Higgs theory of QCD. The confinement force is largely reduced at high temperature, which leads to the swelling of…
A strongly coupled confining gauge theory with a non-zero vacuum angle undergoing a deconfinement to confinement phase transition is studied in the holographic gravitational description. A simplified five-dimensional setup is constructed…
In this study it is demonstrated that a simple picture of the QCD gluon liquid emerges in the dynamical quasiparticle model that specifies the active degrees of freedom in the time-like sector and yields a potential energy density in the…
We study the glueball properties at finite temperature from the temporal correlation in $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory using anisotropic lattice QCD. Although the existence of a constant contribution to the meson correlation function appearing…
We present the first results on scalar glueballs in cold, dense matter using lattice simulations of two color QCD. The simulations are carried out on a $6^3 \times 12$ lattice and use a standard hybrid molecular dynamics algorithm for…
We investigate the inflation and reheating phenomenology in scalar-Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity where a scalar field non-minimally couples with the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) curvature term. Regarding the inflationary phenomenology, we…
In this paper we present a QCD motivated model that mimics QCD theory. We examine the characteristics of the gauge field coupled with the color dielectric function ($G$) in the presence of temperature ($T$). The aim is to achieve…
We propose a new scenario for early cosmology, where inflationary de Sitter phase dynamically occurs. The effect emerges as a result of dynamics of the topologically nontrivial sectors in expanding universe. Technically the effect can be…
We implement the scenario of early relaxation of the axion via a high scale confinement within $SU(5)$ grand unified theory and study an epoch of strong QCD in inflationary cosmology. We consider scenarios in which, during inflation, the…
We conjecture that the confinement- deconfinement phase transition in QCD at large number of colors N and N_f\ll N at T\neq 0 and \mu\neq 0 is triggered by the drastic change in \theta behavior. The conjecture is motivated by the…
