Dimensional reduction of Lattice Gauge Theory in (2+1)D
- Physics
- 2002
This is my Ph.D. thesis defended earlier this year. It contains mostly information already presented in previous Bielefeld/Saclay papers on this subject, though in more detailed form. It also…

High density QCD with static quarks.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 1996
In this approximation, the deconfinement transition seen at zero density becomes a smooth crossover at very small density (possibly for any nonzero density), and that at low enough temperature chiral symmetry remains broken at all densities.
Fermions obstruct dimensional reduction in hot QCD
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 2000
We have studied, for the first time, screening masses obtained from glueball-like correlators in quantum chromodynamics with four light dynamical flavors of quarks in the temperature range 1.…
QCD and instantons at finite temperature
- Physics
- 1981
The current understanding of the behavior of quantum chromodynamics at finite temperature is presented. Perturbative methods are used to explore the high-temperature dynamics. At sufficiently high…
Large-scale structure of the deconfined phase.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 1988
It is shown that a global SU(2) symmetry breaks if the temperature is high enough and it is argued that this new transition most likely coincides with deconfinement.
Imaginary chemical potential and finite fermion density on the lattice
- Physics
- 1999
Standard lattice fermion algorithms run into the well-known sign problem at real chemical potential. In this paper we investigate the possibility of using imaginary chemical potential, and argue that…
Random matrix model of QCD at finite density and the nature of the quenched limit.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 1996
A random matrix model is used to study chiral symmetry breaking in QCD at finite chemical potential and it is found that quenched QCD is not a simple $n\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ limit of QCD with n quarks.

On the convergence of perturbative QCD at high temperature.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 1996
The free energy for QCD at high temperature {ital T} is calculated to order {ital g}{sup 5} using effective-field-theory methods to separate the contributions from the momentum scales 2{pi}{ital T}, and the perturbation series is well behaved if the running coupling constant is sufficiently small.
Spatial string tension in the deconfined phase of (3+1)-dimensional SU(2) gauge theory.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 1993
It is shown, for the first time, that the spatial string tension is scaling on the lattice and thus is nonvanishing in the continuum limit, and is temperature independent below [ital T] and rises rapidly above.
Meron-Cluster Solution of Fermion Sign Problems
- Physics
- 1999
We present a general strategy to solve the notorious fermion sign problem using cluster algorithms. The method applies to various systems in the Hubbard model family as well as to relativistic…
