The method of relative weights is used to extract, from an underlying SU(3) lattice gauge theory at finite chemical potential, an effective theory which depends only on Polyakov line holonomies. The effective theory can be solved by both mean field and complex Langevin methods, and the solutions from the two approaches can be compared. It is found that when the two methods agree, they agree...

Finding controlled, analytical approaches to the deconfinement
transition in QCD is an old problem. Here we present a weak
coupling calculation of the deconfinement transition in a deformed
version of QCD. The deformation involves adding a fermion in the
adjoint representation, subject to twisted boundary condistions
along the thermal circle. We argue that the transition in the...

We obtain the asymptotic behavior of the perturbative expansion of the pole mass and the plaquette by computing the self-energy of an static quark and
the plaquette to order alpha^{20} and alpha^{35} respectively. The results fully confirm renormalon expectations. Confronting these results with nonperturbative lattice data we confirm the OPE beyond perturbation theory (no dimension two...

Abstract
I discuss physical scenarios in different vacua of N=2 supersymmetric QCD
deformed by the mass term $\mu$
for the adjoint matter. This deformation breaks supersymmetry down to N=1
and at large $\mu$ the theory flows to N=1 QCD.
I focus on dynamical scenarios which can serve as a prototypes
of what we observe in the real world QCD.
In particular, I discuss the...
