Critical behavior of gauge theories and Coulomb gases in three and four dimensions
Aleksey Cherman, Mithat Unsal
Gauge theories with matter often have critical regions in their parameter space where gapless degrees of freedom emerge. Using controlled semiclassical calculations, we explore suc…

QCD on a small circle
Kyle Aitken, Aleksey Cherman, Erich Poppitz +1
QCD-like theories can be engineered to remain in a confined phase when compactified on an arbitrarily small circle, where their features may be studied quantitatively in a controll…

Order parameters and color-flavor center symmetry in QCD
Aleksey Cherman, Srimoyee Sen, Mithat Unsal +2
Common lore suggests that -color QCD with massive quarks has no useful order parameters which can be non-trivial at zero baryon density. However, such order parameters do exist…
