The generating functional for hard thermal loops in QCD is rewritten in terms of a gauged WZNW action by introducing an auxiliary field. This shows in a simple way that the contribution of hard thermal loops to the energy of the quark-gluon…
We present the universal one-loop effective action up to dimension eight after integrating out heavy fermion(s) using the Heat-Kernel method. We have discussed how the Dirac operator being a weak elliptic operator, the fermionic operator…
Using only global symmetries of QCD, we set up an effective model of quarks at finite temperature near the cross over, including all possible terms up to dimension 6. We first treat this in mean field theory. Then we investigate low-energy…
The explicit expressions for the one-loop non-perturbative corrections to the gravitational effective action induced by a scalar field on a stationary gravitational background are obtained both at zero and finite temperatures. The…
The thermodynamic behavior of QCD matter at high temperature is currently studied by lattice QCD theory. The main features are the fast rise of the energy density $\epsilon$ around the critical temperature $T_c$ and the large trace anomaly…
The extraction of the finite temperature heavy quark potential from lattice QCD relies on a spectral analysis of the Wilson loop. General arguments tell us that the lowest lying spectral peak encodes, through its position and shape, the…
We study analytically the phase diagram of the pure $SU(N)$ lattice gauge theory at finite temperature, and we attempt to estimate the critical deconfinement temperature. We apply large $N$ techniques to the Wilson and to the Heat Kernel…
We consider thermal QCD in the large N_C limit, mainly in 1+1 dimensions. The gauge coupling is only taken into account to minimal order, by projection onto colour singlets. An expression for the free energy, exact as N_C goes to infinity,…
In this paper, we systematically study the effective action for non-commutative QED in the static limit at high temperature. When $\theta p^{2}\ll 1$, where $\theta$ represents the magnitude of the parameter for non-commutativity and $p$…
Hard thermal loop effective actions furnish the building blocks of resummed thermal perturbation theory, which is expected to work as long as the quantities under consideration are not sensitive to the nonperturbative (chromo-)magnetostatic…
We report the calculation of the fourth coefficient in an expansion of the heat kernel of a non-minimal, non-abelian kinetic operator in an arbitrary background gauge in arbitrary space-time dimension. The fourth coefficient is shown to…
Assuming high temperature and taking subleading temperature dependence into account, gauge dependence of one-loop electron dispersion relation is investigated in massless QED at zero chemical potential. The analysis is carried out using a…
We calculate the damping rate for transverse gluons with {\nineti finite} soft momentum to leading order in perturbative hot QCD. The internal momenta of the one-loop contributing diagrams are soft. This means we have to use effective…
We develop a new method to determine thermal activation rates, such as for bubble nucleation, topology change, \textsl{etc.}, using 4-dimensional Euclidean methods. This allows nonperturbative study on the lattice. We then investigate the…
We use our recently proposed algebraic approach for calculating the heat kernel associated with the Laplace operator to calculate the one-loop effective action in the non-Abelian gauge theory. We consider the most general case of arbitrary…
The success of the experimental program at the Tevatron re-inforced the idea that precision physics at hadron colliders is desirable and, indeed, possible. The Tevatron data strongly suggests that one-loop computations in QCD describe hard…
Temperature rise of qubits due to heating is a critical issue in large-scale quantum computers based on quantum-dot (QD) arrays. This leads to shorter coherence times, induced readout errors, and increased charge noise. Here, we propose a…
In this talk I will first give a short discussion of some lattice results for QCD at finite temperature. I will then describe in some detail the technique of dimensional reduction, which in principle is a powerful technique to obtain…
Our aim is to give a self-contained review of recent advances in the analytic description of the deconfinement transition and determination of the deconfinement temperature in lattice QCD at large N. We also include some new results, as for…
We calculate the thermodynamic functions of pure-glue QCD to three-loop order using the hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory (HTLpt) reorganization of finite temperature quantum field theory. We show that at three-loop order…
