We study the static responses of cold quark matter in the intermediate baryonic density region (characterized by a chemical potential $\mu$) in the presence of a strong magnetic field. We consider in particular, the so-called Magnetic Dual…

To measure the Debye mass in dimensionally reduced QCD for $N_c\le 3$ we replace in the correlator of two Polyakov loops one of the loops by a wall triggered by a dimensionally reduced twist. The phase diagram for $N_c=3$ has R-parity…
We summarize and extend evidence that the deconfinement phase transition in Yang-Mills theories can be viewed as change of effective non-perturbative degrees of freedom and of symmetries of their interactions. In short, the strings in four…

A brief review is given of the sign problem in finite density lattice QCD and various attempts to overcome it. To date there is still no solution to this problem which would work for realistic QCD. The main focus then is on the deconfined…

We consider model A dynamics for a heating quench from the disordered (confined) into the ordered (deconfined) phase of SU(3) lattice gauge theory. For $4 N_{\sigma}^3$ lattices the exponential growth factors of low-lying structure function…
We analyze the static potential of a quark-antiquark pair at $T\,\geq\,T_c$, where $T_c$ is a temperature of a deconfinement phase transition in QCD. We discuss the possibility that the non-perturbative part of this potential can be studied…
In a strongly-coupled quark-gluon plasma, collective excitations of gluons and quarks should dominate over the excitation of individual quasi-free gluon and quark modes. To explore this possibility, we computed screening masses for…
The one-loop vacuum polarization tensor is computed in QED with an external constant, homogeneous magnetic field at finite temperature. The Schwinger proper-time formalism is used and the computations are done in Euclidian space. The…
Analytic expressions for the $N$-dimensional Debye function are obtained by the method of brackets. The new expressions are suitable for the analysis of the asymptotic behavior of this function, both in the high and low temperature limits.

We present results for the confinement-deconfinement interface tension $\sigma_{cd}$ of quenched QCD. They were obtained by applying Binder's histogram method to lattices of size $L^2\times L_z\times L_t$ for $L_t=2$ and $L=8,10,12\mbox{…
The theory of confinement and deconfinement is discussed as based on the properties of the QCD vacuum. The latter are described by field correlators of colour-electric and colour-magnetic fields in the vacuum, which can be calculated…

Classical lattice Yang-Mills calculations provide a good way to understand different nonequilibrium phenomena in nonperturbatively overoccupied systems. Above the Debye scale the classical theory can be matched smoothly to kinetic theory.…
