Correlating confinement to topological fluctuations near the crossover transition in QCD

Rasmus N. Larsen, Sayantan Sharma, Edward Shuryak

We show the existence of strong (anti)correlations between the topological hot spots and the local values of the trace of the Polyakov loop in flavor QCD with physical quark…

Towards a semi-classical description of QCD vacuum around

Rasmus N. Larsen, Sayantan Sharma, Edward Shuryak

We study the vacuum topology of 2+1 flavor QCD above the chiral crossover transition, at , on lattices of size . Since overlap fermions have exact…

The topological objects near the chiral crossover transition in QCD

Rasmus N. Larsen, Sayantan Sharma, Edward Shuryak

We study the underlying topology of gauge fields in 2+1 flavor QCD with domain wall fermions on lattices of size , at and immediately above the chiral crossover trans…

Instanton-dyon ensembles reproduce deconfinement and chiral restoration phase transitions

E. Shuryak

Paradigm shift in gauge topology at finite temperatures, from the instantons to their constituents -- instanton-dyons -- has recently lead to studies of their ensembles and very si…

Comments on the temperature dependence of the gauge topology

Edward Shuryak

Recent efforts in lattice evaluation of the topological susceptibility had shown that at high temperatures it is given by well-separated instantons (even in QCD with light fermions…

QCD-like theories with many fermions: magnetic plasma and unusual confinements

Edward Shuryak

This comment-style letter represents a part of my talks on new developments in lattice QCD. While it does not contain any new results, it containes some theoretical ideas and compa…
