Recently, machine learning has become a popular tool to use in fundamental science, including lattice field theory. Here I will review on some recent ideas, including normalising flow, phase classification and quantum-field theoretical machine learning. The latter combines insights of lattice field theory and machine learning to provide a fresh perspective on (hopefully) both.

The phase diagram of QCD is investigated by varying number of colors N_c within a Polyakov loop quark-meson chiral model. In particular, our attention is focused on the critical point(s); the critical point present for N_c=3 moves toward the mu_q-axis and disappears as soon as the number of color is increased. Yet, a distinct critical point emerges along the temperature axis for N_c=53 and...

We show that in isentropic relativistic fluids the total helicity of a perfect electromagnetic fluid is conserved. The helicity conservation law can be reshaped in the form of a chiral anomaly equation.

For systems made up by massless fermions, we study how the helicity conservation law is modified in the presence of a chiral misbalance, when one has also to consider the effects of the chiral... -

I present a relativistic density functional approach to color superconducting quark matter that mimics quark confinement by a fast growth of the quasiparticle self-energy in the confining region [1]. The approach is shown to be equivalent to a chiral model of quark matter with medium dependent couplings. The approach to the conformal limit at asymptotically high densities is provided by a...

We discuss the dynamics of the topologically nontrivial sectors with non-trivial holonomy in strongly coupled QCD in the background of the expanding universe characterized by the Hubble scale $H\ll \Lambda_{QCD}$. We argue that the vacuum energy and the de Sitter phase emerge dynamically with the scale $\rho_{DE}\approx H\Lambda_{QCD}^3 \approx (10^{-3} eV)^4$, which is amazingly...

Thermal field theory is indispensable for describing hot and dense systems. Yet perturbative calculations are often stymied by a host of energy scales, and tend to converge slowly. This means that precise results require the apt use of effective field theories. In this talk I describe how the effective description of slowly varying gauge fields, known as hard thermal loops, can be extended to...

Low-energy dynamics of QCD can be described by pion degrees of freedom in terms of the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). A chiral soliton lattice (CSL), an array of solitons, is the ground state due to the chiral anomaly in the presence of a magnetic field larger than a certain critical value at finite density. Here, we show in a model-independent and fully analytic manner (at the leading...

We will discuss the recent developments in perturbative QCD at zero temperature and high barionic densities notably how can we effectively resum the so-called soft, hybrid, and hard leading logarithms. We pave the way to the resummation of the next-to-leading logarithms by identifying the anomalous dimensions of the mixed sector in QCD.
By identifying {\em massive} renormalization group...

Observations of neutron stars and their mergers have opened a new avenue and motivation for studying QCD matter at very high densities. When studying neutron star mergers in particular, it is vital to understand effects of both the temperature and, for transport quantities such as the bulk viscosity, the quark masses.
Unfortunately, in loop calculations at finite density and/or temperature,...

In this work we propose a new type of hybrid star and study its properties. The quark phase is described by the MIT bag model with repulsive vector interactions and the hadron phase is described by the HLPS model, which is consistent with chiral effective field theory. In the junction of the two phases there can be a discontinuity (a ``jump'') in the energy density, which is related to the...

In gauge theories with fundamental matters, the Higgs and confining regimes are believed to be smoothly connected. This Higgs-confinement continuity forms the foundation of the quark-hadron continuity conjecture, which is a crossover scenario from the nuclear superfluidity phase to the color superconducting phase in dense QCD. Certain superfluid gauge theories, including dense QCD, exhibit...

The structure of the gluonic vacuum is examined at finite temperature in lattice QCD.

We obtain the equation of state (EoS) for two-color QCD at low temperature and high density from the lattice Monte Carlo simulation. Two-color QCD is a good toy model of real three-color QCD. The advantage to study this model is that the sign problem is absent even in finite density regime because of the pseudo-reality of quark field. We find that the speed of sound exceeds the relativistic...

The hydrodynamic evolution of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in the initial stage of heavy-ion collisions can be approximated by tracking the lines on the QCD phase diagram where the entropy per baryon, s/n, are fixed and conserved at the initial values.

In the view that the short wavelength response can be important in small colliding systems and at early-times of a heavy-ion collision, we investigate the response of the near-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to perturbation at non-hydrodynamic gradients.

We discuss hadron scatterings in zero temperature and small chemical potential ($\mu$).

It is found that the energy has linear behavior with respect to $\mu$. We then formulate the HAL QCD method in small $\mu$, where we extract scattering amplitudes via the...

In high-energy heavy ion collisions, two relativistically moving nuclei collide with each other to form a hot dense matter known as quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Along with the QGP that is produced in the initial stage of heavy ion collisions, an intense and strong electromagnetic field is also thought to be produced, the main source of which are the spectators. Spectators are those which do not...

Abstract: At the ultrahigh densities existing in the core of neutron stars (NSs), it is expected that a phase transition from baryonic to deconfined quark matter may occur. Such a phase transition would affect the underlying equation of state (EoS) as well as the observable astrophysical properties of NSs. Comparison of EoS model predictions with astronomical data from multimessenger signals...

Compact stars (CSs) are stellar remnants of massive stars. Inside CSs the density is so high that matter is in subatomic form composed of nucleons. With increase of density of matter towards the centre of the objects other degrees of freedom like hyperons, heavier non-strange baryons, meson condensates may appear. Not only that at higher densities, the nucleons may get decomposed into quarks...

Over the last decades, the theoretical picture of how hadronic jets interact with nuclear matter has been extended to account for the medium’s finite longitudinal length and expansion. However, only recently a first-principle approach has been developed that allows to couple the jet evolution to the medium flow and anisotropic structure in the dilute limit. In this talk, we will show how to...
