One may argue that QCD solves the strong CP problem by itself, without having to introduce new symmetries and particles. To test this idea, a lattice simulation is performed. The problem is investigated in the CP$^3$ model first. It is…
A unified approach, for solving a wide class of single and many-body quantum problems, commonly encountered in literature is developed based on a recently proposed method for finding solutions of linear differential equations. Apart from…
We describe the application of Dyson-Schwinger equations to the calculation of hadron observables. The studies at zero temperature (T) and quark chemical potential (mu) provide a springboard for the extension to finite-(T,mu). Our exemplars…
A simple model for QCD is presented, which is able to reproduce the meson spectrum at low energy. The model is a Lipkin type model for quarks coupled to gluons. The basic building blocks are pairs of quark-antiquarks coupled to a definite…
We give an outline of a recent proof that the low-energy effective gauge theory exhibiting quark confinement due to magnetic monopole condensation can be derived from QCD without any specific assumption. We emphasize that the low-energy…
We propose a novel quasiparticle interpretation of the equation of state of deconfined QCD at finite temperature. Using appropriate thermal masses, we introduce a phenomenological parametrization of the onset of confinement in the vicinity…
In analogy with the standard derivation of the Schwarzschild solution, we find all static, cylindrically symmetric solutions of the Einstein field equations for vacuum. These include not only the well known cone solution, which is locally…
Light-Front Hamiltonian theory provides a rigorous frame-independent framework for solving nonperturbative QCD. The valence Fock-state wavefunctions of the light-front QCD Hamiltonian satisfy a single-variable relativistic equation of…
QCD predicts that strongly interacting matter will undergo a transition from a state of hadronic constituents to a plasma of unbound quarks and gluons. We first survey the conceptual features of this transition and its description in finite…
We consider a "one current" state, obtained by appication of a color current on the "adjoint" vacuum, in $QCD_2$, with quarks in fundamental representation. The quarks are taken to be massless. The theory on the light-front can be…
The nonperturbative vacuum structure which emerges from the zero modes enhancement (ZME) model of the true QCD vacuum, appears to be well suited to describe quark confinement, dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DCSB), current-effective…
After a very brief overview recollecting the `classic' parts of QCD, that is its application to describe hard processes and static properties of hadrons, I survey recent work -- some very recent -- on QCD at non-zero temperature and…
In has been recently shown [1] that in Dirac's hole theory the vacuum state is not the minimum energy state but that there exist quantum states with less energy than that of the vacuum state. In this paper we extend this discussion to…
QCD is the fundamental theory to describe the strong interaction, where quarks and gluons have the color degrees of freedom. However, a single quark or gluon can not be separated out and all observable particles are color singlet states.…
We consider the difficulties of finite density QCD from the canonical formalism. We present results for small baryon numbers, where the sign problem can be controlled, in particular by supplementing the mu=0 sampling with imaginary mu…
We consider conditions for existence and stability of a static cosmological solution in quadratic gravity. It appears that such a solution for a Universe filled by only one type of perfect fluid is possible in a wide range of the equation…
We introduce the quark virtuality distribution [$\lambda^{2}_{q}(x)$] as an extenson of the quark virtuality by using nonlocal rather than local quark vacuum condensates. Our results show that the quark virtuality distribution decreases…
In this letter we give the equation of state of QCD at finite temperatures and densities. The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used to determine observables at nonvanishing chemical potentials.…
We determine the equation of state of QCD at finite chemical potential, to order $(\mu_B/T)^6$, for a system of 2+1 quark flavors. The simulations are performed at the physical mass for the light and strange quarks on several lattice…
We consider the finite density, zero-temperature behaviour of quark matter in the instanton picture. Since the instanton-induced interactions are attractive in both $\bar{q}q$ and $qq$ channels, a competition ensues between phases of matter…
