Random Matrices
M. A. Stephanov, J. J. M. Verbaarschot, T. Wettig
We review elementary properties of random matrices and discuss widely used mathematical methods for both hermitian and nonhermitian random matrix ensembles. Applications to a wide…
Dynamic universality class of the QCD critical point
D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov
We show that the dynamic universality class of the QCD critical point is that of model H and discuss the dynamic critical exponents. We show that the baryon diffusion rate vanishes…
QCD and dimensional deconstruction
D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov
Motivated by phenomenological models of hidden local symmetries and the ideas of dimensional deconstruction and gauge/gravity duality, we consider the model of an "open moose". Suc…
Real-time pion propagation in finite-temperature QCD
D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov
We argue that in QCD near the chiral limit, at all temperatures below the chiral phase transition, the dispersion relation of soft pions can be expressed entirely in terms of three…
Pion Propagation near the QCD Chiral Phase Transition
D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov
We point out that, in analogy with spin waves in antiferromagnets, all parameters describing the real-time propagation of soft pions at temperatures below the QCD chiral phase tran…
Kaon Condensation and Goldstone's Theorem
T. Schaefer, D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov +2
We consider QCD at a nonzero chemical potential for strangeness. At a critical value of the chemical potential equal to the kaon mass, kaon condensation occurs through a continuous…
