I review the growing theoretical indications that at high densities color SU(3) gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken by the formation of a quark pair condensate. This leads to a rich phase structure for QCD as a function of temperature…
We derive loop equations for the one-link correlators of gauge and scalar fields in the Kazakov-Migdal model. These equations determine the solution of the model in the large N limit and are similar to analogous equations for the Hermitean…
This article presents a Hamiltonian lattice formulation of static Casimir systems at a level of generality appropriate for an introductory investigation. Background structure - represented by a lattice potential V(x) - is introduced along…
In this proceedings we summarize our calculation of the phase diagram of QCD at non-zero temperature and chemical potential on S^1 x S^3 from one-loop perturbation theory [1], which is valid in the limit R << 1/Lambda, where R is the radius…
Random Matrix Theory has been a unifying approach in physics and mathematics.In these lectures we discuss applications of Random Matrix Theory to QCD and emphasize underlying integrable structures. In the first lecture we give an overview…
We revisit the static potential for the $Q Q \bar Q \bar Q$ system using SU(3) lattice simulations, studying both the colour singlets groundstate and first excited state. We consider geometries where the two static quarks and the two…
The lattice gauge theory technique for non-perturbative calculations in QCD is reviewed. The extraction of the continuum limit of lattice results is discussed with particular examples appropriate to hadron spectroscopy (the light hadrons…
We observe that the linear potential used as a leading approximation for describing color confinement in the instant form of dynamics corresponds to a quadratic confining potential in the front form of dynamics. In particular, the…
We consider constraints on the S-matrix of any gapped, Lorentz invariant quantum field theory in 3+1 dimensions due to crossing symmetry, analyticity and unitarity. We extremize cubic couplings, quartic couplings and scattering lengths…
The chiral extension of Quantum Chromodynamics (XQCD) adds to the standard lattice action explicit pseudoscalar meson fields for the chiral condensates. With this action, it is feasible to do simulations at the chiral limit with zero mass…
Using SU(3) lattice QCD, we perform the detailed studies of the three-quark and the multi-quark potentials. From the accurate calculation for more than 300 different patterns of 3Q systems, the static ground-state 3Q potential $V_{\rm…
The local Gauss law of quantum chromodynamics on a finite lattice is investigated. It is shown that it implies a gauge invariant, additive law giving rise to a gauge invariant ${\mathbb Z}_3$-valued global charge in QCD. The total charge…
We show that all current formalisms for quarks in lattice QCD are consistent in the quenched continuum limit, as they should be. We improve on previous extrapolations to this limit, and the understanding of lattice systematic errors there,…
The Random Matrix Model approach to Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) with non-vanishing chemical potential is reviewed. The general concept using global symmetries is introduced, as well as its relation to field theory, the so-called epsilon…
We present lattice calculations in QCD using a variant of Kaplan fermions which retain the continuum SU(N)xSU(N) chiral symmetry on the lattice in the limit of an infinite extra dimension. In particular, we show that the pion mass and the…
This is the short review of Monte-Carlo studies of quark confinement in lattice QCD. After abelian projections both in the maximally abelian and Polyakov gauges, it is seen that the monopole part alone is responsible for confinement. A…
While lattice QCD allows for reliable results at small momentum transfers (large quark separations), perturbative QCD is restricted to large momentum transfers (small quark separations). The latter is determined up to a reference momentum…
The spectrum of observables in the induced lattice gauge model proposed recently by V.A.Kazakov and A.A.Migdal obeys the local-confinement selection rule. The underlying local continuous symmetry cannot be spontaneously broken within the…
Recently evidence has been found that the perturbative QCD potential agrees well with phenomenological potentials and lattice computations of the QCD potential. We review the present status of the perturbative QCD potential and theoretical…
