Effective Polyakov-loop theory for pure Yang-Mills from strong coupling expansion
Jens Langelage, Stefano Lottini, Owe Philipsen
Lattice Yang-Mills theories at finite temperature can be mapped onto effective 3d spin systems, thus facilitating their numerical investigation. Using strong-coupling expansions we…
Centre symmetric 3d effective actions for thermal SU(N) Yang-Mills from strong coupling series
Jens Langelage, Stefano Lottini, Owe Philipsen
We derive three-dimensional, Z(N)-symmetric effective actions in terms of Polyakov loops by means of strong coupling expansions, starting from thermal SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in fo…
Strong coupling series for QCD at finite temperature and density
Jens Langelage, Owe Philipsen
We discuss the use of strong coupling expansions for Yang-Mills theory and QCD at finite temperature and density. In particular we consider the onset of temperature effects for the…
Colour-electric spectral function at next-to-leading order
Y. Burnier, M. Laine, J. Langelage +1
The spectral function related to the correlator of two colour-electric fields along a Polyakov loop determines the momentum diffusion coefficient of a heavy quark near rest with re…
The pressure of strong coupling lattice QCD with heavy quarks, the hadron resonance gas model and the large N limit
Jens Langelage, Owe Philipsen
In this paper we calculate the pressure of pure lattice Yang-Mills theories and lattice QCD with heavy quarks by means of strong coupling expansions. Dynamical fermions are introdu…
