abstract
We present a full result for the equation of state (EoS) in 2+1+1 (up/down, strange and charm quarks are present) flavour lattice QCD. We extend this analysis and give the equation of state in 2+1+1+1 flavour QCD. In order to describe the evolution of the universe from temperatures several hundreds of GeV to several tens of MeV we also include the known effects of the electroweak theory and give the effective degree of freedoms. As another application of lattice QCD we calculate the topological susceptibility (chi) up to the few GeV temperature region. These two results, EoS and chi, can be used to predict the dark matter axion's mass in the post-inflation scenario and/or give the relationship between the axion's mass and the universal axionic angle, which acts as a initial condition of our universe.

Extension of KoMPoST to (3+1)D non-boost-invariant pre-equilibrium dynamics via kinetic theory response functions, chained into a full McDIPPER+KoMPoST-3D+CLVisc+SMASH simulation chain to study sensitivity of longitudinal flow to hydrodynamic start time.
A redefinition of the symmetry energy expansion that incorporates finite strangeness consistent with SU(3) flavor symmetry and remains valid beyond typical neutron-star central densities.
Axion-like fields coupled to the Nieh-Yan term generate a chiral GW background during radiation domination, with parameter space explored for detectability in PTA and space-based observatories.
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.
No weak scale triggers exist in the SMEFT up to dimension six (and likely eight) that can solve the hierarchy problem far above the weak scale.
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.
Out-of-equilibrium simulations with open-to-periodic boundary switching plus a tailored stochastic normalizing flow enable efficient topology sampling in the continuum limit of four-dimensional SU(3) Yang-Mills theory.
Pre-inflationary QCD axions form dense stars with densities up to 10^4 eV^4 that contain up to 50% of dark matter after moduli domination.
Continuum-extrapolated lattice QCD simulations with complex Langevin produce the equation of state at high baryon chemical potentials above the crossover temperature at the physical point.
Multi-field tunneling analysis in a CP-violating NJL model yields a slow transition (β/H ~ 100) whose stochastic gravitational-wave signal is detectable by μAres and insensitive to the CP angle.
VAH simulations in (2+1)D Bjorken flow with transverse expansion show an extended applicability domain over standard viscous hydrodynamics when compared to relaxation-time approximation kinetic theory.
Final Planck CMB data confirms the flat 6-parameter ΛCDM model with Ω_c h² = 0.120 ± 0.001, Ω_b h² = 0.0224 ± 0.0001, n_s = 0.965 ± 0.004, τ = 0.054 ± 0.007, H_0 = 67.4 ± 0.5 km/s/Mpc, and no strong evidence for extensions.
Non-standard reheating imprints detectable features on SIGW spectra via non-Gaussianity, with dynamics that can suppress or boost the signal amplitude for LISA.
A mini-review of axion phenomenology showing how light bosons can account for dark matter, drive cosmic acceleration, or contribute to relativistic backgrounds in the early and late Universe.
Review classifies QCD axion models extending the standard mass-coupling window and updates bounds from cosmology, astrophysics, and experiments.
