We summarize the current theoretical and experimental status of the spectral changes of vector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$) at finite baryon density. Various approaches including QCD sum rules, effective theory of hadrons and bag…
The vector manifestation (VM) was proposed as a novel manifestation of chiral symmetry in which the massless vector meson becomes the chiral partner of pion. In this write-up, I briefly summarize the following main ingredients to formulate…
It is discussed how chiral symmetry restoration manifests itself through mixing of vector and axial-vector correlators. The vector correlator is directly accessible in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Within models of the vector…

We compute the screening correlators in the sigma and eta' flavor singlet channels in finite temperature QCD with 2 light quark flavors. Together with the correlators in the pi and delta channels, these are used to discuss several issues…
The phenomena of superconductivity and superfluidity are believed to originate from the same underlying physics, namely the condensation of either bosons or pairs of fermions (Cooper pairs). In this work I complied and analyzed literature…
The thermodynamic behavior of a fluid near a vapor-liquid and, hence, asymmetric critical point is discussed within a general ``complete'' scaling theory incorporating pressure mixing in the nonlinear scaling fields as well as corrections…
We report on effects of the q-$\bar{\rm q}$ vector interaction and/or the U(1)$_A$-anomaly-induced chiral-diquark coupling on the charge-neutral quark matter in $\beta$-equilibrium. We show that when the vector coupling is absent, there can…
The nucleon axial coupling constant $g_A$ is calculated in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field using finite energy sum rules. The correlation function of proton, neutron and axial-vector currents is calculated both the…
We investigate proposals of how the form factor approach to compute correlation functions at zero temperature can be extended to finite temperature. For the two-point correlation function we conclude that the suggestion to use the usual…
We carry out a systematic study of correlation functions of momentum modes in the Euclidean c=1 string, as a function of the radius and to all orders in perturbation theory. We obtain simple explicit expressions for several classes of…

2-point correlators of vector and axial currents, obtained from tau-decay data, are studied within the framework of perturbative QCD and Operator Product Expansion. Various sum rules, obtained from Borel transformation of the correlators in…
We extend the predictive soft-wall AdS/QCD model to a thermodynamic model by considering the black hole metric. A modified bulk vacuum expectation value and a modified coefficient for the quartic term in the bulk scalar potential are…
In a general class of one and two dimensional Hubbard models, we prove upper bounds for the two-point correlation functions at finite temperatures for electrons, for electron pairs, and for spins. The upper bounds decay exponentially in one…
We present a lattice QCD calculation with two dynamical flavors of the isovector vector correlator in the high-temperature phase. We analyze the correlator in terms of the associated spectral function, for which we review the theoretical…

Drawbacks of a recently suggested modified BCS theory at finite temperature in [Phys. Rev. C {\bf 67}, 014304 (2003)] are discussed. We conclude that the thermal behavior of the pairing correlations is not under control within this model.
