Quantum Anomalies in Dense Matter
D. T. Son, A. R. Zhitnitsky
We consider the effects of quantum anomalies involving the baryon current for high-density matter. In the effective Lagrangian, the anomaly terms describe the interaction of three…
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…
Low-Energy Quantum Effective Action for Relativistic Superfluids
D. T. Son
We consider relativistic superfluids where the U(1) baryon symmetry is spontaneously broken. Using the formalism of the quantum effective action, we show that the low-energy dynami…
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…
Confinement and domain walls in high density quark matter
D. T. Son
In this talk I will review some recent progress in our understanding of properties of high density quark matter. This talk is based mainly on the papers hep-ph/0011379, hep-ph/0012…
