In the limit of a large number of colors (N), both Yang-Mills and quantum chromodynamics are expected to have a first-order phase transition separating a confined hadronic phase and a deconfined plasma phase. One aspect of this separation…

We consider the formation of a ring-like magnetic field in collisions of bubbles of broken phase in an abelian Higgs model. Particular attention is paid on multiple collisions. The small collision velocity limit, appropriate to the…

The chiral symmetry of QCD with two massless quark flavours gets restored in a non-analytic chiral phase transition at finite temperature and zero density. Whether this is a first-order or a second-order transition has not yet been…

We present the results of lattice computations of collisions of two expanding bubbles of true vacuum in the Abelian Higgs model with a first-order phase transition. New time-dependent analytical solutions for the Abelian field strength and…

We study the properties of the shear viscosity coefficient of quark matter at finite temperature and chemical potential near chiral phase transition in a strong background magnetic field. A strong magnetic field induces anisotropic…

We analyze the nucleation of supersolid order out of the superfluid ground state of bosons on the triangular lattice. While the stability of supersolidity against phase separation in this system is by now well established for…

In a wide class of new physics models, there exist scalar fields that obtain vacuum expectation values of high energy scales. We study the possibility that the standard model Higgs field has experienced first order phase transition at the…

We study the order of the phase transition in the 3d U(1)+Higgs theory, which is the Ginzburg-Landau theory of superconductivity. We confirm that for small scalar self-coupling the transition is of first order. For large scalar…

We show that the tethered surface model of Helfrich and Polyakov-Kleinert undergoes a first-order phase transition separating the smooth phase from the crumpled one. The model is investigated by the canonical Monte Carlo simulations on…

We describe a multi-messenger interpretation of GW170817, which yields a robust lower limit on NS radii. This excludes NSs with radii smaller than about 10.7 km and thus rules out very soft nuclear matter. We stress the potential of this…

The SU(3)_{r} \times SU(3)_{\ell} linear sigma model is used to study the chiral symmetry restoring phase transition of QCD at nonzero temperature. The line of second order phase transitions separating the first order and smooth crossover…

We investigate how a magnetic background field influences the location and the nature of the Roberge-Weiss (RW) finite temperature transition for $N_f = 2+1$ QCD with physical quark masses. To that purpose, we perform numerical simulations…

The phase diagram of the Heisenberg ferromagnetic model in the presence of a magnetic random field (we have used bimodal distribution) of spin S=1/2 (quantum case) and $S=\infty $ (classical case) on a simple cubic lattice is studied within…

We study thermodynamic properties of the QCD vacuum in a magnetic field below chiral phase transition. The hadronic phase free energy in a constant homogeneous magnetic field is calculated in the framework of the chiral perturbation theory…

We study the QCD phase structure in magnetic field $H$ at low temperature $T$. The hadronic phase free energy in a constant homogeneous magnetic field is calculated in one-loop approximation of the chiral perturbation theory. The dependence…

It is shown that the quantum phase transition in metallic non-s-wave ferromagnets, or spin nematics, is generically of first order. This is due to a coupling of the order parameter to soft electronic modes that play a role analogous to that…

We discuss the phase diagram of QCD in the presence of a strong background magnetic field, providing numerical evidence, based on lattice simulations of QCD with $2+1$ flavours and physical quark masses, that the QCD crossover turns into a…

We study a $U(N)\times U(N)$ symmetric scalar field model in four and three dimensions. First, using our data in four dimensions in the weak coupling region, we demonstrate explicitly that the observed first order phase transition is…

Although the QCD phase transition is a crossover in the standard model, nonstandard effects such as a large lepton asymmetry are known to make it first order, with possible applications to gravitational wave production. This process is…

It has previously been found that a magnetic impurity in a conventional $s$-wave superconductor can give rise to a local $\pi$-phase shift of the superconducting order parameter. By studying a finite wire of ferromagnetic impurities, we are…
