We investigate the Kondo effect with Wilson fermions. This is based on a mean-field approach for the chiral Gross-Neveu model including four-point interactions between a light Wilson fermion and a heavy fermion. For massless Wilson…
We propose a new framework for investigating two-flavor lattice QCD with finite temperature and density. We consider the Karsten-Wilczek fermion formulation, in which a species-dependent imaginary chemical potential term can reduce the…
We study the effective field theory for fermions in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of high density QCD. The effective theory contains a flavor nonet of baryons interacting with a nonet of pseudoscalar Goldstone bosons as well as a…
I discuss pion and koan condensation and the the properties of the phases of QCD at finite isospin chemical potential $\mu_I$ and strangeness chemical potential $\mu_S$ at zero temperature using three-flavor chiral perturbation theory.…

We study quenched QCD at finite chemical potential, $\mu_I$, for the third component of isospin and quenched two-colour QCD at finite chemical potential, $\mu$, for quark number. In contrast to the quenched approximation to QCD at finite…
We present an update on the study of the QCD phase transition with 3 flavors of M\"obius domain wall fermions at zero baryon density. We performed simulations on lattices of size $36^3\times12\times16$ and $24^3\times12\times32$ with a…
We derive chiral Ward identities for lattice QCD with Wilson quarks and $N_\mathrm{f} \geq 3$ flavours, on small lattices with Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions and vanishingly small quark masses. These identities relate the…
We provide strong evidence of a quantum critical point (QCP) associated with the destruction of Kondo screening in the Anderson-Hubbard model for interacting electrons with quenched disorder. A unique crossover energy scale, $\omega^*$…
We study the effect of a non-zero strange quark mass on the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase of high density quark matter. We have previously shown that for a strange quark mass $m_s\sim m_u^{1/3}\Delta^{2/3}$ the CFL state becomes unstable…

We delineate equilibrium phase structure and topological charge distribution of dense two-colour QCD at low temperature by using a lattice simulation with two-flavour Wilson fermions that has a chemical potential $\mu$ and a diquark source…
