This article provides a Wilsonian description of the perturbatively renormalizable Tensorial Group Field Theory introduced in arXiv:1303.6772 [hep-th] (Commun. Math. Phys. 330, 581-637). It is a rank-3 model based on the gauge group SU(2),…

We report an investigation of criticality in QCD at finite isovector chemical potential, mu_3, and at zero temperature. At the critical point, mu_3^c = m_pi, we find that an uncharged scalar and pseudoscalar and a charged pseudoscalar meson…
