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)…

We perform a systematic study of the thermodynamics of quantum gases in the unitarity limit. Our study makes use of a "Universality Hypothesis" for the relevant energy scales of a many-body system at unitarity. This Hypothesis is supported…
When addressing the thermodynamics of finite-sized systems, one must specify whether one wants to fix conserved charges to a sharp value or whether one is content to fix their thermodynamic average. In other words, contrary to the…
