We study the influence of the isospin asymmetry on the phase structure of strongly interacting quark matter near the tricritical point (TCP) using a generalized Ginzburg-Landau approach. The effect has proven to be so drastic, not only…

We study the inhomogeneous chiral condensates in the proximity of the chiral tricritical point (TCP) of two-flavor QCD. Deriving the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) functional up to the eighth order in the order parameter and its spatial derivative,…

We study the influence of the isospin asymmetry on the phase structure of strongly interacting quark matter near the critical point (CP) using a Ginzburg-Landau approach. The effect is found to be drastic, not only bringing about the shift…

We analyze the presence of inhomogeneous phases in the QCD phase diagram within the framework of nonlocal chiral quark models. We concentrate in particular in the positions of the tricritical (TCP) and Lifshitz (LP) points, which are…

We investigate the influence of the isospin asymmetry on the phase structure of quark matter near the chiral critical point systematically using a generalized version of Ginzburg-Landau approach. The effect has proven to be so profound that…

We present an extensive study on inhomogeneous chiral condensates in QCD at finite density in the chiral limit using a generalized Ginzburg-Landau (GL) approach. Performing analyses on higher harmonics of one-dimensionally (1D) modulated…

The chiral phase boundary of strong matter is determined in the T-\mu plane from the chiral quark model, applying a non-perturbatively renormalised treatment, involving chains of pion-bubbles and 1-loop fermion contributions. In the absence…

We explore a possible phase where chiral $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R$ symmetry is spontaneously broken while its center $Z_2$ symmetry remains unbroken and its consequence on thermal quantities. In this phase, chiral symmetry breaking is driven…

The phase diagram of lattice QCD in the strong coupling limit can be measured in the full $\mu$-$T$ plane, also in the chiral limit. In particular, the phase diagram in the chiral limit features a tricritical point at some $(\mu_c,T_c)$.…

We study the interplay between chiral and diquark condensates within the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau free energy, and classify possible phase structures of two and three-flavor massless QCD. The QCD axial anomaly acts as an external…

The phase diagram of strongly interacting matter is explored as a function of temperature and baryon number density. We investigate the possible simultaneous formation of condensates in the conventional quark--anti-quark channel (breaking…

We investigate the chiral phase transition of a QCD-like theory, based the shape change of the effective potential near the critical point. The potential is constructed with the auxiliary field method, and a source term coupled to the field…

We present a systematic study of the phase structure of QCD in a generalized Ginzburg-Landau framework. We find, going up in density, a strongly interacting matter might go through the "pion crystal", an exotic inhomogeneous chiral phase…

The chiral condensate, which is constant in vacuum, may become spatially modulated at moderately high densities where in the traditional picture of the QCD phase diagram a first-order chiral phase transition occurs. We review the current…

I first sketch recent developments concerning the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter as a function of temperature and baryon density, obtained using a model for two-flavor QCD in which the interaction between quarks is modelled on…

In this paper we study the chiral phase transition of QCD at finite temperature and density by using the rank-2 confining separable gluon propagator model in the framework of Dyson-Schwinger Equations. The critical end point is located at…

We investigate the multicritical behavior of the three-dimensional Z_2 gauge Higgs model, at the multicritical point (MCP) of its phase diagram, where one first-order transition line and two continuous Ising-like transition lines meet. The…

We investigate the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and its restoration at finite density and temperature within the two-flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, and mainly focus on the critical behaviors near the critical end point (CEP) and…

We present unambiguous evidence from lattice simulations of N_f=3 QCD for two tricritical points in the (T,m) phase diagram at fixed imaginary \mu/T=i\pi/3 mod. 2\pi/3, one in the light and one in the heavy quark regime. Together with…

First principle study of QCD at finite temperature $T$ and chemical potential $\mu$ is essential for understanding a wide range of phenomena from heavy-ion collisions to cosmology and neutron stars. However, in the presence of finite…
