Description
The high temperature expansion (HTE) had been widely used as a standard tool to study phase transitions in statistical mechanics. This method applied to QCD effective theories provides new insights to study quark matter at finite chemical potential. In this talk, the general idea of HTE for the Ising model is briefly reviewed and its applications to effective theories of QCD are described. We will present some promising results obtained from this approach. A method called Partial Differential Approximants, which is used to analyze series of several couplings, will be discussed. We will also indicate a couple of open problems.
