We investigate a zero-dimensional Hermitian one-matrix model in a triple-well potential. Its tree-level phase structure is analyzed semiclassically as well as in the framework of orthogonal polynomials. Some multiple-arc eigenvalue distributions in the first method correspond to quasiperiodic large-N behavior of recursion coefficients for the second. We further establish this connection between the two approaches by finding three-arc saddle points from orthogonal polynomials. The latter require a modification for nondegenerate potential minima; we propose weighing the average over potential wells.

We study the phase diagram of QCD at finite isospin density using two flavors of staggered quarks. We investigate the low temperature region of the phase diagram where we find a pion condensation phase at high chemical potential. We started a basic analysis of the spectrum at finite isospin density. In particular, we measured pion, rho and nucleon masses inside and outside of the pion condensation phase. In agreement with previous studies in two-color QCD at finite baryon density we find that the Polyakov loop does not depend on the density in the staggered formulation.

In a (2 + 1)-dimensional pure LGT at finite temperature the critical coupling for the deconfinement transition scales as βc(nt) = Jcnt + a1, where nt is the number of links in the "timelike" direction of the symmetric lattice. We study the effective action for the Polyakov loop obtained by neglecting the spacelike plaquettes, and we are able to compute analytically in this context the coefficient a1 for any SU(N) gauge group; the value of Jc is instead obtained from the effective action by means of (improved) mean field techniques. Both coefficients have already been calculated in the large N limit in a previous paper. The results are in very good agreement with the existing Monte Carlo simulations. This fact supports the conjecture that, in the (2 + 1)-dimensional theory, spacelike plaquettes have little influence on the dynamics of the Polyakov loops in the deconfined phase.

Abstract We examine the vacuum structure of QCD3 with flavor group U (f)×U (Nf−f) in the limit N → ∞ with g2N =fixed. We find that, generically, the resolution of critical points into a series of first order pahse transitions persists at special locations in the phase diagram. In particular, the number of Grassmannians that one traverses and their locations in the phase diagram is a function of f.

The thermodynamic behavior of the two-flavor (Nf = 2) three-color (Nc = 3) Polyakov-loop-extended Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model at the finite chemical potential is investigated. New lattice gluon data for gluon thermodynamics are used defining the effective potential within polynomial and logarithmic forms of its approximation. We study the effects of using different sets of data and different forms of the potential on thermodynamic properties of hot and dense matter. It is found that the PNJL thermodynamics depends stronger on the form of the effective potential than on the used lattice data set. Particular attention is paid to the phase diagram in the (T, μ) plane.
