Fermionic Boundary Conditions and the Finite Temperature Transition of QCD

Abstract: Finite temperature lattice QCD is probed by varying the temporal boundary conditions of the fermions. We develop the emerging physical behavior in a study of the quenched case and subsequently present first results for a fully dynamical calculation comparing ensembles below and above the phase transition. We show that for low temperature spectral quantities of the Dirac operator are insensitive to boundary conditions, while in the deconfined phase a non-trivial response to a variation of the boundary condition… Show more

“…de Useful tools to address these questions are the so-called dual observables [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. These are obtained by modifying the temporal boundary conditions of the valence (test) quarks, without altering the dynamics of the theory 1 .…”

“…However, the LGT calculations demonstrate that σ(ϕ) exhibits quite different behavior from that for the imaginary chemical potential [56]. σ(ϕ) shows a periodicity of 2π in ϕ, not 2π/3 which is required by the RW periodicity.…”

“…Recently, some dual observables are introduced as the new order parameters for center symmetry by using the twisted boundary conditions for quarks [3][4][5][6]. Especially, it is demonstrated in the formalism of lattice QCD [3,4] that the dressed Polyakov loop (DPL) interpolates between the chiral condensate and the thin PL.…”

“…Especially, it is demonstrated in the formalism of lattice QCD [3,4] that the dressed Polyakov loop (DPL) interpolates between the chiral condensate and the thin PL. The studies from the functional methods [7][8][9][10] and effective models [11][12][13] also suggest the DPL shows the order parameterlike behavior like the thin PL.…”
