Fisher's zeros, complex RG flows and confinement in LGT models

Alan Denbleyker, Alexei Bazavov, Daping Du +3

The zeros of the partition function in the complex beta plane (Fisher's zeros) play an important role in our understanding of phase transitions and RG flows. Recently, we argued th…

Looking for Restoration in Hot QCD with Domain Wall Fermions

Prasad Hegde

The effects of the axial anomaly are suppressed at high temperatures due to screening effects in the quark-gluon plasma. If the suppression is nearly complete close to the chiral t…

The Decay Amplitude from Lattice QCD

T. Blum, P. A. Boyle, N. H. Christ +13

We report on the first realistic \emph{ab initio} calculation of a hadronic weak decay, that of the amplitude for a kaon to decay into two π-mesons with isospin 2. We find Re…

The Infrared behavior of SU(3) Nf=12 gauge theory -about the existence of conformal fixed point-

Kenji Ogawa, Tatsumi Aoyama, Hiroaki Ikeda +8

Incorporated with twisted boundary condition, Polyakov loop correlators can give a definition of the renormalized coupling. We employ this scheme for the step scaling method (with…
