Continuum extrapolation of lattice QCD data shows that SU(2)_L × SU(2)_R chiral and U(1)_A axial symmetry breaking strengths in nonsinglet quark-connected channels converge to the same value near the chiral crossover temperature.
A coupled DSE-FRG-holographic model predicts the QCD critical end point at T_CEP approximately 130-135 MeV and mu_B,CEP approximately 600 MeV, with sensitivity to regulator and normalization choices.
Including mesonic fluctuations beyond mean field in the quark-meson-diquark model substantially modifies the phase structure, with diquark condensation dominating at strong couplings as revealed by pole masses and the Silver-Blaze property.
Lattice QCD finds evidence for effective U(1)_A symmetry restoration at 319(22) MeV, well above the chiral crossover.
The statistical hadronization model successfully describes hadron production in nuclear collisions over broad energies, with implications for QCD phase structure.
A review of lattice QCD findings on the finite-temperature QCD transition at zero baryon chemical potential, its chiral limit behavior, constraints on the phase boundary and critical endpoint at finite density, plus advances under external fields and conditions.
