Phase structures of strong coupling lattice QCD with overlap fermions at finite temperature and chemical potential
Abstract
Description
We perform the first study of lattice QCD with overlap fermions at finite temperature $T$ and chemical potential $μ$. We start from the Taylor expanded overlap fermion action, and derive in the strong coupling limit the effective free energy by mean field approximation. On the ($μ,T$) plane and in the chiral limit, there is a tricritical point, separating the second order chiral phase transition line at small $μ$ and large $T$, and first order chiral phase transition line at large $μ$ and small $T$.
