These lecture notes, prepared for the 2024 XQCD PhD, provide an introduction to the analytic structure of an equation of state near a second-order phase transition and its most prominent landmark: the Yang-Lee edge singularity. In addition to discussing general properties, the notes review recent theoretical progress in locating the QCD critical point by tracking the trajectory of the Yang-Lee edge singularity.

  1. Asymptotic behaviour of the derivative expansion in the ERG

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The derivative expansion of the exact renormalization group is divergent for generic operators in any dimension, but behaves as an asymptotic series that converges to high order in common applications.

  2. High-precision baryon number cumulants from lattice QCD in a finite box: cumulant ratios, Lee-Yang zeros and critical endpoint predictions

    hep-lat 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    High-statistics lattice QCD data up to tenth order, analyzed with a Roberge-Weiss-symmetric rational ansatz, place an 84% upper bound of 103 MeV on the QCD critical endpoint temperature.

  3. Finite-size scaling of Lee-Yang zeros and its application to the 3-state Potts model and heavy-quark QCD

    hep-lat 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Ratios of Lee-Yang zeros on finite lattices cross at the critical point, giving a new finite-size-scaling method verified in Ising, Potts, and heavy-quark QCD models.

  4. Search for a Lee-Yang edge singularity in high-statistics Wuppertal-Budapest data

    hep-lat 2025-02 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    From Wuppertal-Budapest lattice data, the authors estimate the QCD critical endpoint temperature through Lee-Yang edge scaling, obtaining a highly uncertain median of 34 MeV.

  5. Exploring the QCD phase diagram through correlations and fluctuations

    nucl-th 2025-12 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

    A synthesis of the QCD critical point search: theoretical estimates cluster at T_C≈100–120 MeV, μ_B≈550–650 MeV, and BES-II cumulant data match non-critical baselines above 10 GeV while 7.7–9 GeV deviations remain une...
