Dependence of the confinement transition parameters on the fermion content provides information on the mechanism of confinement. Recent progress in lattice gauge theories has allowed to study it for light flavor number $N_f\sim O(10)$ and…
We study the structure of QCD at very large baryon density for an arbitrary number of flavors $N_f$. We provide evidence that for any number of flavors larger than $N_f=2$ chiral symmetry remains broken at asymptotically large chemical…
We investigate the chiral properties of SU(2) gauge theory with six flavors, i.e. six light Dirac fermions in the fundamental representations by lattice simulation, and point out that the spontaneous breakdown of chiral symmetry does not…
The finite-temperature chiral phase transition is investigated for three flavours of staggered quarks on a lattice of temporal extent N_t=4. In the simulation we use an improved fermion action which reduces rotational symmetry breaking of…
The lattice simulations of $QC_2D$ with two flavors of staggered fermions and non-zero quark chemical potential $\mu_q$ have been performed. Dependencies of the Polyakov loop, chiral condensate and baryon number density on $\mu_q$ were…
The order of the thermal chiral phase transition in lattice QCD is known to be strongly cutoff-dependent. A previous study using $N_\mathrm{f}\in[2,6]$ mass-degenerate, unimproved staggered quark flavours on $N_\tau\in\{4,6,8\}$ lattices…
It was recently conjectured that, in SU(3) gauge theories with fundamental quarks, valence spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is equivalent to condensation of local dynamical chirality and appearance of chiral polarization scale…
We present the new results of the Wuppertal-Budapest lattice QCD collaboration on flavor diagonal and non-diagonal quark number susceptibilities with 2+1 staggered quark flavors, in a temperature regime between 120 and 400 MeV. A Symanzik…
Quenched QCD at zero baryonic chemical potential undergoes a first-order deconfinement phase transition at a critical temperature $T_c$, which is related to the spontaneous breaking of the global center symmetry. Including heavy, dynamical…
Three dimensional Thirring model with $N$ four-component Dirac fermions, reformulated as a lattice gauge theory, is studied by computer simulation. According to an $8^{3}$ data and preliminary $16^3$ data, chiral symmetry is found to be…
I report the results of a series of works on the phase diagram of theories with a different number of colors and/or quarks in a different representation than in QCD. Similarities as well as differences as compared to the real world are…
We study the Thirring model in three spacetime dimensions, by means of Monte Carlo simulation on lattice sizes 8^3 and 12^3, for numbers of fermion flavors N_f=2,4,6. For sufficiently strong interaction strength, we find that spontaneous…
We present an update on our ongoing study on the nature of the bulk transition observed at strong coupling in the SU(3) gauge theory with N_f = 12 flavors in the fundamental representation. We show evidence that there is a first order…
We discuss the chiral phase diagram in the parameter space of lattice QCD with minimal-doubling fermions, which can be seen as lattice fermions with flavored chemical potential terms. We study strong-coupling lattice QCD with the…
We study the thermal phase transition in colour SU(3) Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) with a variable number of fermions in the fundamental representation by using lattice Monte-Carlo simulations. We collect the (pseudo) critical couplings for…
We discuss the existence of a conformal phase in SU(N) gauge theories in four dimensions. In this lattice study we explore the model in the bare parameter space, varying the lattice coupling and bare mass. Simulations are carried out with…
A mean field analysis of finite density QCD is presented including the effects of additional chiral invariant four-fermion interactions. A lattice regularization is used with N_f=4 flavors of staggered fermions. The use of the four-fermion…
QCD with 2 flavours of massless colour-sextet quarks is studied as a theory which might exhibit a range of scales over which the running coupling constant evolves very slowly (walks). We simulate lattice QCD with 2 flavours of sextet…
We present results from a comprehensive study of the location of the chiral critical surface, which separates regions of first-order chiral transitions from analytic crossovers, in the bare parameter space of lattice QCD with unimproved…
To date numerical simulations of lattice QCD have not found a chiral phase transition of first order which is expected to occur for sufficiently light pions. We show how the restoration of an exact global chiral symmetry can strongly…
