${\mathbb{Z}}_3$ lattice gauge theory as a toy model for dense QCD

Yoshimasa Hidaka, Yuya Tanizaki, Arata Yamamoto

We propose the $(3+1)$-dimensional ${\mathbb{Z}}_3$ lattice gauge theory coupled with the 2-flavor Wilson-Dirac fermion as a toy model for studying quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at no…
