The possible occurrence of crystalline or inhomogeneous phases in the QCD phase diagram at large chemical potential has been under investigation for over thirty years. Such phases are present in models of QCD such as the Gross-Neveu model…
In this letter, we discuss a novel method to search for inhomogeneous chiral symmetry breaking in theories with fermions. The prime application we have in mind is QCD, but the method is also applicable for other theories, including…
For decades now, low-energy models of QCD have shown indications that a crystalline quark phase could be stable at high chemical potentials. Beyond models, however, there are numerous difficulties in investigating such a hypothesis in full…
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…
The inhomogeneous chiral phase is discussed in QCD at finite temperature and/or density. We study the phase diagram on the density-temperature plane by taking into account the effect of the current mass by a variational method. It is…
The formation of inhomogeneous chiral condensates in QCD matter at nonzero density and temperature is investigated for the first time with Dyson-Schwinger equations. We consider two massless quark flavors in a so-called chiral density wave,…
We present evidence for a spatially modulated instability within the deconfined quark-gluon plasma phase of QCD. This evidence is based on robust predictions from generic holographic models, accurately fitted to lattice data, where the…
The two-flavor quark-meson model is used as a low-energy effective model for QCD to study inhomogeneous chiral condensates at finite %temperature $T$ baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$. The parameters of the model are determined by matching…
In this work, we attack the problem of "chiral phase instability" ($\chi$PI) in a quantum chromodynamics (QCD) system under a parallel and constant electromagnetic field. The $\chi$PI refers to that: When $I_2\equiv{\bf E\cdot B}$ is larger…
The presence of inhomogeneous phases in the QCD phase diagram is analyzed within chiral quark models that include nonlocal interactions. We work at the mean field level, assuming that the spatial dependence of scalar and pseudo-scalar…
In this work, inhomogeneous chiral phases are studied in a variety of Four-Fermion and Yukawa models in $2+1$ dimensions at zero and non-zero temperature and chemical potentials. Employing the mean-field approximation, we do not find…
We investigate the combined effects of rotation and finite quark chemical potential on inhomogeneous chiral condensation and the chiral phase diagram within the soft-wall holographic QCD model. Using the five-dimensional AdS-RN metric, we…
We investigate the stability of an inhomogeneous chiral condensed phase against low energy fluctuations about a spatially modulated order parameter. This phase corresponds to the so-called dual chiral density wave in the context of quark…
We discuss possible existence of inhomogeneous phase in low temperature and high density region in the 1+1 dimensional chiral Gross-Neveu ( $\chi$GN$_2$ ) model on the lattice. First we investigate the phase structure of the $\chi$GN$_2$…
We discuss possible inhomogeneous phases in two regions of the QCD phase diagram: We begin with color superconducting quark matter at moderately high densities, which is an imbalanced Fermi system due to the finite strange quark mass and…
Recent studies of our group are reviewed about the inhomogeneous chiral phase. Appearance of the inhomogeneous chiral phase is a new paradigm in the field of the QCD phase diagram. We consider the dual-chiral-density-wave in the presence of…
QCD at large densities exhibits a moat regime in the scalar-pseudoscalar sector. The resolution of its dynamics is pivotal for the access to the onset of new phases including the potential critical endpoint of QCD. In this work we present…
We compute the QCD phase diagram in the plane of the chiral chemical potential and temperature using the linear sigma model coupled to quarks and to the Polyakov loop. The chiral chemical potential accounts for effects of imbalanced…
It has been shown in [32,33] in the framework of Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with the assumption of spatially homogeneous condensates that in the large-$N_{c}$ limit ($N_{c}$ is the number of quark colours) there exist three dual symmetries…
We use an effective QCD model (ladder-QCD) to explore the phase diagram for chiral symmetry breaking and restoration at finite temperature with different $u,d$ quark chemical potentials. In agreement with a recent investigation based on the…
