The functional integral representation for fermionic observables on the lattice is studied. In particular, Grassmannian representations of the scalar $\hatJ^{(S)}$ and pseudoscalar $\hatJ^{(P)}$ currents and pseudoscalar correlator are…
I discuss the connection between the Hamiltonian and path integral approaches for fermionic fields. I show how the temporal Wilson projection operators appear naturally in a lattice action. I also carefully treat the insertion of a chemical…
I review recent developments in the study of strongly interacting field theories with non-zero chemical potential mu. In particular I focus on (a) the determination of the QCD critical endpoint in the (mu,T) plane; (b) superfluid…
Finite temperature lattice QCD is probed by varying the temporal boundary conditions of the fermions. We develop the emerging physical behavior in a study of the quenched case and subsequently present first results for a fully dynamical…
In a series of publications [\ref{LNWW},\ref{Schroedinger}], L\"uscher et al. have demonstrated the usefulness of the Schr\"odinger functional in pure SU(2) and SU(3) gauge theory. In this paper, it is shown how their formalism can be…
It is shown that starting from one and the same transfer matrix formulation of QCD on a lattice, it is possible to obtain both the action of Hasenfratz and Karsch as well as an action where the chemical potential is not coupled to the…
We present results on the QCD equation of state, obtained with two different improved dynamical staggered fermion actions and almost physical quark masses. Lattice cut-off effects are discussed in detail as results for three different…
We discuss various aspects and recent progress concerning lattice QCD studies in the presence of external sources. We focus, in particular, on issues regarding QCD with non-zero imaginary chemical potentials or with a $\theta$-term, and on…
We define the chemical potential as the Lagrange multiplier of the baryon charge operator in the transfer matrix formalism of QCD on a lattice. Transforming the partition function into an euclidean path integral we get the Hasenfratz-Karsh…
I give an elementary introduction to the study of gauge theories coupled to fermions with many degrees of freedom. Besides their intrinsic interest, these theories are candidates for nonperturbative extensions of the Higgs sector of the…
A study of QCD at non-zero chemical potential, mu, and temperature, T, is performed using the lattice technique. The transition temperature (between the confined and deconfined phases) is determined as a function of mu and is found to be in…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at sufficiently high density is expected to undergo a chiral phase transition. Understanding such a transition is of particular importance for neutron star or quark star physics. In Lagrangian SU(3) lattice…
We have investigated QCD with two flavors of degenerate fermions using a Symanzik-improved lattice action for both the gauge and fermion actions. Our study focuses on the deconfinement transition on an $N_t=4$ lattice. Having located the…
A nonperturbative lattice study of QCD at finite chemical potential is complicated due to the complex fermion determinant and the sign problem. Here we apply the method of stochastic quantization and complex Langevin dynamics to this…
We investigate the chiral magnetic effect by lattice QCD with a chiral chemical potential. In a chirally imbalanced matter, we obtain a finite induced current along an external magnetic field. We analyze the dependence on the lattice…
We formulate the low energy limit of QCD like partition functions with bosonic quarks at nonzero chemical potential. The partition functions are evaluated in the parameter domain that is dominated by the zero momentum modes of the Goldstone…
Using both perturbation theory in the Euclidean formalism as well as the non-perturbative Fujikawa's method, we verify that the chiral anomaly equation remains unaffected in continuum QCD in the presence of nonzero chemical potential, \mu.…
We explore the phase diagram of SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory with dynamical fermions in the temperature, mass, chemical potential space. We observe qualitative changes of the dependence of the particle density on $\mu$ and $T$, which is…
The QCD thermodynamics on the lattice provides fundamental theoretical grounds to analyze the various experimental data in relativistic heavy ion collisions. So far, most of the numerical simulations on the lattice have been performed by…
We present a method of simulating lattice QCD at nonzero chemical potential in the chiral limit. By adding a weak four-fermi interaction to the standard staggered fermion SU(3) QCD action, we produce an algorithm in which the limit of…
