QCD axions are at the crossroads of QCD topology and Dark Matter searches. We present here the current status of topological studies on the lattice, and their implication on axion physics. We outline the specific challenges posed by lattice topology, the different proposals for handling them, the observable effects of topology on the QCD spectrum and its interrelation with chiral and axial symmetries. We review the transition to the Quark Gluon Plasma, the fate of topology at the transition, and the approach to the high temperature limit. We discuss the extrapolations needed to reach the regime of cosmological relevance, and the resulting constraints on the QCD axion.

    hep-lat 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Lattice QCD calculations show intermediate statistics in Dirac eigenvalues near the chiral crossover that correlate with disorder via Polyakov loops, with Thouless conductance serving as a new probe for effective UA(1...

  2. Dark matter from axion and small neutrino mass

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A KSVZ-like model with a fermion dark matter candidate produced by UV freeze-in through the axion portal is shown to have viable parameter space at TeV mass and axion decay constant near 10^10 to 10^11 GeV.
