We study the behavior of the order parameter, the phase diagram, and the thermodynamics of exotic phases of finite temperature gauge theory. Lattice simulations were performed in SU(3) and SU(4) with an adjoint Polyakov loop term added to…

We determine the correlation between Polyakov loops in three dimensional SU(3) gauge theory in the confined region at finite temperature. For this purpose we perform lattice calculations for the number of steps in the temperature direction…

I compute Polyakov loop, the deconfinement order parameter, for SU(2) lattice gauge theory using the fixed scale approach for several different scales and show how to obtain a renormalized physical order parameter. The generalization to…

We discuss properties of local Polyakov loops in the deconfinement transition of SU(3) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature using the fixed scale approach. In particular we study spatial clusters where local Polyakov loops have phases…

Using the geometry of a double-layered torus we investigate the deconfining phase transition of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory by Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations. In one layer, called "outside", the temperature is set below the…

We study the renormalization of Polyakov loops in different irreducible representations of SU(N) Yang-Mills theories at finite temperature, and investigate their behavior in the large-N limit.

We consider the SU(2) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature in (d+1) dimensions, with different couplings $\beta_t$ and $\beta_s$ for timelike and spacelike plaquettes. By using the character expansion of the Wilson action and…

Deconfinement and screening of higher-representation sources in finite-temperature $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory is investigated by both analytical and numerical means. The effective Polyakov-line action at strong coupling is simulated by an…

We describe how the general mechanism of partial deconfinement applies to large-$N$ QCD and the partially-deconfined phase inevitably appears between completely-confined and completely-deconfined phases. Furthermore, we propose how the…

We determine the time evolution of fluctuations of the Polyakov loop after a quench into the deconfined phase of SU(3) gauge theory from a simple classical relativistic Lagrangian. We compare the structure factors, which indicate spinodal…

I compute the deconfinement order parameter for the SU(2) lattice gauge theory, the Polyakov loop, using the fixed scale approach for two different scales and show how one can obtain a physical, renormalized, order parameter. The…

We compute complete spectra of the staggered lattice Dirac operator for quenched SU(3) gauge configurations below and above the critical temperature. The confined and the deconfined phase are characterized by a different response of the…

Three-quark potentials are studied in great details in the three-dimensional $SU(3)$ pure gauge theory at finite temperature, for the cases of static sources in the fundamental and adjoint representations. For this purpose, the…

The susceptibilities of the real and imaginary parts, as well as of the modulus of the Polyakov loop, are computed in SU(3) lattice gauge theory. We show that the ratios of these susceptibilities are excellent probes of the deconfinement…

We investigate the phase structure of pure SU(2) LGT at finite temperature in the mixed fundamental and adjoint representation modified with a Z2 monopole chemical potential. The decoupling of the finite temperature phase transition from…

We simulate SU(2) gauge theory at temperatures ranging from slightly below $T_c$ to roughly $2T_c$ for two different values of the gauge coupling. Using a histogram method, we extract the effective potential for the Polyakov loop and for…

We report on the determination of the deconfining temperature in SU(3) pure gauge theory, using the Symanzik tree level improved action, on lattices of size 3 x 12^3, 4 x 16^3, 5 x 20^3, 6 x24^3. We find that the asymptotic scaling…

Let B be the largest spacing between adjacent eigenvalues of the Polyakov loop. We propose to employ the distribution of B as an order parameter for the finite temperature phase transition in SU(N) lattice gauge theories. Using smeared…

We compute the effective action in terms of the Polyakov loop for the 3-dimensional pure fundamental-adjoint SU(2) lattice gauge theory at non-zero temperatures using the strong coupling expansion. In the extended coupling plane we show the…

We calculate the critical amplitudes of the Polyakov loop and its susceptibility at the deconfinement transition of (3+1) dimensional SU(2) gauge theory. To this end we study the corrections due to irrelevant exponents in the scaling…
