All approaches currently used to study finite baryon density lattice QCD suffer from uncontrolled systematic uncertainties in addition to the well-known sign problem. We formulate and test an algorithm, sign reweighting, that works directly…

We investigate the positivity of the Euclidean path integral measure for low-energy modes in dense fermionic matter. We show that the sign problem usually associated with fermions is absent if one considers only low-energy degrees of…

Due to the fermion sign problem, standard lattice Monte-Carlo method for QCD fail at small temperatures and high baryon densities. $G_2$-QCD, QCD with the gauge group $SU(3)$ replaced by the exceptional Lie group $G_2$, can be simulated…

This is a pedagogical review of the lattice study of finite density QCD, which is intended to provide the minimum necessary contents, so that the paper may be used as the first reading for a newcomer to the field and also for those working…

QCD at large density reveals a rich phase structure, ranging from a potential critical end point and inhomogeneous phases or moat regimes to color superconducting ones with competing order effects. Resolving this region in the phase diagram…

We provide a short review of the progress made in the past decade with functional QCD in the description of the phase structure of QCD. We summarise the most important technical aspects of the framework, discuss strategies for truncations…

Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at sufficiently high density is expected to undergo a chiral phase transition. Understanding such a transition is of particular importance for neutron star or quark star physics. In Lagrangian SU(3) lattice…

A number of proposed extensions of the Standard Model include new strongly interacting dynamics, in the form of SU(N) gauge fields coupled to various numbers of fermions. Often, these extensions allow N = 3 as a plausible choice, or even…

We give a selection of results on spectrum and decay constants of light and heavy-light hadrons. Effective field theories relevant for their lattice calculation, namely non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) for heavy quarks on the lattice and Chiral…

A new method of employing an isospin chemical potential for QCD-like theories with different number of colors, number of fermion flavors, and in different fermion representations is proposed. The isospin chemical potential, which can be…

The possibility of revealing new physics by studying the flavor sector of the Standard Model strongly depends upon the accuracy that will be achieved in (near) future lattice QCD calculations and, in particular, on heavy-light meson's…

We study the QCD phase diagram by first principle lattice calculations at so far unreached high densities. For this purpose we employ the density of states method. Unimproved staggered fermions, which describe four quark flavors in the…

Peripheral heavy-ion collisions are expected to exhibit magnetic fields with magnitudes comparable to the QCD scale, as well as non-zero baryon densities. Whereas QCD at finite magnetic fields can be simulated directly with standard lattice…

Expressions for the potentials appearing in the nonrelativistic effective field theory description of doubly heavy baryons are known in terms of operator insertions in the Wilson loop. However, their evaluation requires nonperturbative…

A general introduction into the subject aimed at a general theoretical physics audience. We introduce the sign problem posed by finite density lattice QCD, and we discuss the main methods proposed to circumvent it, with emphasis on the…

The sign problem of QCD prevents standard lattice simulations to determine the phase diagram of strong interactions with a finite chemical potential directly. Complex Langevin simulations provide an alternative method to sample path…

I review recent developments in the study of strongly interacting field theories with non-zero chemical potential mu. In particular I focus on (a) the determination of the QCD critical endpoint in the (mu,T) plane; (b) superfluid…

A remarkable progress has been made in the understanding of the hot and dense QCD matter using lattice gauge theory. The issues which are very well understood as well those which require both conceptual as well as algorithmic advances are…

QCD at finite temperature and density is becoming increasingly important for various experimental programmes, ranging from heavy ion physics to astro-particle physics. The non-perturbative nature of non-abelian quantum field theories at…

We study an effective theory of QCD at high density in detail, including the finite temperature effects and the leading order correction in $1/\mu$ expansion. We investigate the Cooper pair gap equation and find that the color-flavor…
