Vacuum energy of quarks participates in the pressure balance at the temperature transition T_c and defines the dependence of T_c on m_q. We first check this dependence in absence of magnetic fields eB vs known lattice data, and then take…

The relativistic distribution for indistinguishable events is considered in the mass-shell limit $m^2\cong M^2,$ where $M$ is a given intrinsic property of the events. The characteristic thermodynamic quantities are calculated and subject…

Assuming that a non-trivial quantum Yang-Mills theory exists, we have proved that it should have a mass gap $\Delta^2 > 0$, indeed. The proof is based on the derivation of the novel constraint on any solution to QCD. It has been exactly and…

For a rather general class of equations of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) type, we prove that the zero-mass (in $x$) constraint is satisfied at any non zero time even if it is not satisfied at initial time zero. Our results are based on a…

We revisit the quark-mass density-dependent model -- a phenomenological equation of state for deconfined quark matter in the high-density low-temperature regime -- and show that thermodynamic inconsistencies that have plagued the model for…

According to the classical Penrose inequality, the mass at spatial infinity is bounded from below by a function of the area of certain trapped surfaces. We exhibit quantum field theory states that violate this relation at the semiclassical…
