Abstract
In this talk, which popularizes some of our recent work, we provide novel insights into the bulk properties of light chiral quarks in a fixed Euclidean volume (e.g. lattice QCD). We show that the spontaneous breakdown of chiral symmetry results into diffusing quarks with a vacuum diffusion constant fm, in striking analogy to diffusing electrons in disordered metals in one-, two- and three-dimensions.
