I discuss recent results on lattice QCD calculations with the main emphasis on the thermodynamics of the crossover region, restoration of the chiral symmetry and fluctuations of conserved charges as indicator of deconfinement, that may also…

We summarize our results on the phase diagram of QCD with emphasis on the high temperature regime. For $T \ge 1.5 T_c$ the results are compatible with a free field behavior, while for $T \simeq 1.1 T_c$ this is not the case, clearly…

We discuss recent developments in lattice QCD for the bulk thermodynamics of the transition. We review the current status of the equation of state, the possible implications of a magnetic field and the fluctuations of conserved charges,…

We provide a general argument for the possible existence of a new critical point associated with a deconfinement phase transition in QCD at finite temperature $T$ and in a magnetic field $B$ with zero chemical potential. This is the first…

After a brief discussion of the promise and limitations of the lattice technique, I review lattice QCD results for several quantities of phenomenological interest. These are: matrix elements for heavy-to-light meson decays, leptonic decay…

A critical point (E) is expected in QCD on the temperature (T) versus baryonic chemical potential (\mu) plane. Using a recently proposed lattice method for \mu \neq 0 we study dynamical QCD with n_f=2+1 staggered quarks of physical masses…

Despite the numerous successful applications of lattice QCD in nuclear and particle theory, fundamental algorithmic challenges remain. Among those, relevant for numerical studies of QCD on a space-time torus, is topological freezing--a form…

We study the QCD phase diagram using the linear sigma model coupled to quarks. We compute the effective potential at finite temperature and quark chemical potential up to ring diagrams contribution. We show that, provided the values for the…

We review a method for numerical simulations of lattice gauge theories at non-zero baryonic chemical potential we recently proposed. We first report on a test of the method using a solvable model and then present results for the phase…

We present some new results regarding simulations of finite density QCD based on a canonical approach. A previous study has shown that such simulations are feasible, at least on small lattices. In the current study, we investigate some of…

We propose a new framework for investigating two-flavor lattice QCD with finite temperature and density by applying the Karsten-Wilczek lattice fermion, in which a species-dependent imaginary chemical potential can reduce the number of…

Lattice QCD at finite chemical potential is difficult due to the sign problem. We use stochastic quantization and complex Langevin dynamics to study this issue. First results for QCD in the hopping expansion are encouraging. U(1) and SU(3)…
