We consider QCD at strong coupling with scalar quarks coupled to a chemical potential. Performing the link integrals we present a diagrammatic representation of the path integral weight. It is based on mesonic and baryonic building blocks,…

We study condensation in two-flavored, scalar QED with non-degenerate masses at finite chemical potential. The conventional formulation of the theory has a sign problem at finite density which can be solved using an exact reformulation of…

We study lattice QCD with four flavors of staggered quarks. In the limit of infinite gauge coupling, "dual" variables can be introduced, which render the finite-density sign problem mild and allow a full determination of the $\mu-T$ phase…

We explore two flavor scalar electrodynamics on the lattice, which has a complex phase problem at finite chemical potential. By rewriting the action in terms of dual variables this complex phase problem can be solved exactly. The dual…

We investigate the sign problem in 0+1 dimensional QCD at finite chemical potential by using the path optimization method. The SU(3) link variable is complexified to the SL(3,$\mathbb{C}$) link variable, and the integral path is represented…

We present a subset method that solves the sign problem for QCD at nonzero quark chemical potential in 0+1 dimensions. The subsets of gauge configurations are constructed using the center symmetry of the SU(3) group. These subsets…

We compute the matching coefficient between the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and the non-relativistic QCD ( NRQCD) for the flavor-changing scalar current involving the heavy charm and bottom quark, up to the three-loop order within the…

Approaches to finite baryon density lattice QCD usually suffer from uncontrolled systematic uncertainties in addition to the well-known sign problem. We test a method - sign reweighting - that works directly at finite chemical potential and…

Lattice QCD in the strong coupling regime can be formulated in dual variables which are integer-valued. It can be efficiently simulated for modest finite temperatures and finite densities via the worm algorithm, circumventing the finite…

We investigate the QCD phase diagram for small values of baryon and strange quark chemical potentials from simulations at non-zero isospin chemical potential. Simulations at pure isospin chemical potential are not hindered by the sign…

We compute the free energy density of QCD to order $\alpha_s$ at very high density and non-zero quark masses. The counterterms needed to renormalise the theory to order $\alpha_s$ is same as the vacuum (non-zero density) theory. We…

Motivated by the intimate connection between the strong CP problem and the flavor structure of the Standard Model, we present a flavor model that revives and extends the classic ${m_u=0}$ solution to the strong CP problem. QCD is embedded…

We present a subset method which solves the sign problem for QCD at nonzero quark chemical potential in 0+1 dimensions. The subsets gather gauge configurations based on the center symmetry of the SU(3) group. We show that the sign problem…

Dynamic AdS/QCD is a holographic model of strongly coupled gauge theories with the dynamics included through the running anomalous dimension of the quark bilinear, gamma. We apply it to describe the physics of massive quarks in the…

We evaluate the pseudoscalar-meson octet-baryon coupling constants and the corresponding axial charges in eight channels ($\pi N\N$, $\pi\Sigma\Sigma$, $\pi\Lambda\Sigma$, $K\Lambda N$, $K \Sigma N $, $\pi\Xi\Xi$, $K\Lambda\Xi$ and…

We propose a model of quark flavor based on an additional $SU(2)\times U(1)$ local symmetry in a warped extra dimensional bulk. In contrast to other works, we break the additional gauge symmetry in the bulk via two complex scalars which…

Due to the sign problem, it is exponentially difficult to study QCD on the lattice at finite chemical potential. We propose a method --an overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique-- to alleviate this problem. We apply this…

The strong coupling limit ($\beta_{gauge}=0$) of lattice QCD with staggered fermions enjoys the same non-perturbative properties as continuum QCD, namely confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. In contrast to the situation at weak…

We discuss the QCD critical point at finite density through the study of many flavor QCD, in which two light flavors and Nf massive flavors exist. Performing simulations of QCD with two flavors of improved Wilson fermions, we calculate…

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…
