We study thermodynamics of N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory by computing quantum corrections to the free energy. We find that in weakly coupled ABJM theory on R(2) x S(1), the leading correction is non-analytic in the 't Hooft…

We present a detailed analysis of the non-analytic structure of the free energy for the itinerant ferromagnet near the quantum critical point in two and three dimensions. We analyze a model of electrons with an isotropic dispersion…

The weak-coupling expansion for thermodynamic quantities in thermal field theories is poorly convergent unless the coupling constant is tiny. We discuss the calculation of the free energy for a hot gas of electrons and photons to three-loop…

Using a model-independent low-energy effective field theory, we calculate the free energy of three-dimensional antiferromagnets in a combination of mutually perpendicular external magnetic and staggered fields at the…

We revisit the proof of the limiting free energy of the continuous random energy model (CREM) using the Hamilton--Jacobi approach for mean-field disordered systems. To achieve this, we introduce an enriched model that interpolates between…

We use the quantum spectral curve to compute the Hagedorn temperature for ABJM theory in terms of the interpolating function $h(\lambda)$. At weak coupling we compute this temperature up to eight-loop order, showing that it matches the…

We calculate the free energy of a hot gas of electrons and photons to three loops using the hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory reorganization of finite-temperature perturbation theory. We calculate the free energy through three loops by…

Applying the previously developed systematic thermal (imaginary time) perturbative expansion to the relevant effective field theory we compute the free energy $F$ of the diluted gas of (nonrelativistic) spin $1/2$ fermions interacting…

Supersymmetric localization reduces the computation of protected observables in ABJM theory to finite-dimensional matrix integrals. Building on the techniques introduced in arXiv:2512.02119, we develop a bootstrap framework for the…

The free energy of a nonabelian gauge theory at high temperature $T$ can be calculated to order $g^5$ using resummed perturbation theory, but the method breaks down at order $g^6$. A new method is developed for calculating the free energy…

Decoupling of heavy quarks at low energies can be described by means of an effective theory as shown by S. Weinberg in Ref. [1]. We study the decoupling of the charm quark by lattice simulations. We simulate a model, QCD with two degenerate…

The localization technique allows us to compute the free energy of the U(N)_k x U(N)_{-k} Chern-Simons-matter theory dual to type IIA strings on AdS_4 x CP^3 from weak to strong 't Hooft coupling \lambda = N / k at finite N, as demonstrated…

We discuss resummation strategies for free energy in quantum field theories at nonzero temperatures T. We point out that resummations should be performed for the short- and long-distance parts separately in order to avoid spurious…

We find a class of new supersymmetric Euclidean solutions in four-dimensional maximal gauged supergravity. The holographic dual description of these backgrounds is given by a mass-deformation of the ABJM theory with general values for the…

The quark contribution to the free energy of a hot quark-gluon plasma is calculated to leading order in hard-thermal-loop (HTL) perturbation theory. This method selectively resums higher order corrections associated with plasma effects,…

We show that the ABJM theory, which is an N=6 superconformal U(N)*U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory, can be studied for arbitrary N at arbitrary coupling constant by applying a simple Monte Carlo method to the matrix model that can be derived…

The perturbative expansion introduced by Zwanzig [R. W. Zwanzig, J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 22}, 1420 (1954)] expresses the difference in Helmholtz free energy between a system of interest and that of a reference system as series of cumulants…

In a recent Letter [T.~Dornheim \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{117}, 156403 (2016)], we presented the first \textit{ab initio} quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) results of the warm dense electron gas in the thermodynamic limit. However,…

This dissertation is devoted to the study of thermodynamics for quantum gauge theories. The poor convergence of quantum field theory at finite temperature has been the main obstacle in the practical applications of thermal QCD for decades.…

We study the high-dimensional limit of the free energy associated with the inference problem of a rank-one nonsymmetric matrix. The matrix is expressed as the outer product of two vectors, not necessarily independent. The distributions of…
