Complex Saddle Points and Disorder Lines in QCD at finite temperature and density
Hiromichi Nishimura, Michael C. Ogilvie, Kamal Pangeni
The properties and consequences of complex saddle points are explored in phenomenological models of QCD at non-zero temperature and density. Such saddle points are a consequence of…
Scalar field collapse with negative cosmological constant
R. Baier, Hiromichi Nishimura, S. A. Stricker
The formation of black holes or naked singularities is studied in a model in which a homogeneous time-dependent scalar field with an exponential potential couples to four dimension…
Transport coefficients of two-flavor superconducting quark matter
Mark G. Alford, Hiromichi Nishimura, Armen Sedrakian
Background: The two-flavor color superconducting (2SC) phase of quark matter is a possible constituent of the core of neutron stars. To assess its impact on the observable behavior…
Universality in holographic entropy production
Ville Keranen, Hiromichi Nishimura, Stefan Stricker +2
We consider the time evolution of two entropy-like quantities, the holographic entanglement entropy and causal holographic information, in a model of holographic thermalization dua…
Complex saddle points in QCD at finite temperature and density
Hiromichi Nishimura, Michael C. Ogilvie, Kamal Pangeni
The sign problem in QCD at finite temperature and density leads naturally to the consideration of complex saddle points of the action or effective action. The global symmetry $\mat…
