The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both
conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of …

Phase transitions in a non-perturbative regime can be studied by ab initio Lattice Field
Theory methods. The status and future research directions for LFT investigations of Quantum …

In this paper, we present an overview on recent progress in studies of QCD at finite
temperature and densities within the functional renormalization group (fRG) approach. The …

Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have
occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear …

Fluctuations of conserved charges are sensitive to the QCD phase transition and a possible
critical end point in the phase diagram at finite density. In this work, we compute the baryon …

We present a calculation of the net baryon number density as a function of imaginary baryon
number chemical potential, obtained with highly improved staggered quarks at temporal …

I analyze the trajectory of the Lee-Yang edge singularities of the QCD equation of state in
the complex baryon chemical potential (μ B) plane for different values of the temperature by …

The Yang-Lee edge singularity was originally studied from the standpoint of mathematical
foundations of phase transitions. However, direct observation of anomalous scaling with the …

Partition functions are ubiquitous in physics: They are important in determining the
thermodynamic properties of many-body systems and in understanding their phase …

Employing the functional renormalization group approach at next-to-leading order of the
derivative expansion, we refine our earlier findings for the location of the Yang-Lee edge …
