Model A Dynamics and the Deconfining Phase Transition for Pure Lattice Gauge Theory

We consider model A dynamics for a heating quench from the disordered (confined) into the ordered (deconfined) phase of SU(3) lattice gauge theory. For $4 N_σ^3$ lattices the exponential growth factors of low-lying structure function modes are calculated. The linear theory of spinodal decompositions is compared with the data from an effective model and the Debye screening mass is estimated from the critical mode. Further, the quench leads to competing vacuum domains, which make the equilibration of the QCD vacuum after the heating non-trivial. We investigate the influence of such domains on the gluonic energy density.

Low-temperature expansion and perturbation theory in 2D models with unbroken symmetry: a new approach

A new method of constructing a weak coupling expansion of two dimensional (2D) models with an unbroken continuous symmetry is developed. The method is based on an analogy with the abelian XY model, respects the Mermin-Wagner (MW) theorem and uses a link representation of the partition and correlation functions. An expansion of the free energy and of the correlation functions at small temperatures is performed and first order coefficients are calculated explicitly. They are shown to coincide with the results of the conventional perturbation theory. We discuss an applicability of our method to analysis of uniformity of the low-temperature expansion.
