Critical point and scale setting in SU(3) plasma: An update

A. Francis, O. Kaczmarek, M. Laine +2

We explore a method developed in statistical physics which has been argued to have exponentially small finite-volume effects, in order to determine the critical temperature Tc of p…

Duality and scaling in 3-dimensional scalar electrodynamics

K. Kajantie, M. Laine, T. Neuhaus +2

Three-dimensional scalar electrodynamics, with a local U(1) gauge symmetry, is believed to be dual to a scalar theory with a global U(1) symmetry, near the phase transition point.…

The inverted XY universality of the superconductivity phase transition

Thomas Neuhaus, Arttu Rajantie, Kari Rummukainen

It has been conjectured that the phase transition in the Ginzburg-Landau theory is dual to the XY model transition. We study numerically a particular limit of the GL theory where t…
