abstract
Using first-principle numerical simulations of the lattice SU(3) gauge theory, we calculate the isothermal moment of inertia of the rigidly rotating gluon plasma. We find that the moment of inertia unexpectedly takes a negative value below the "supervortical temperature" $T_s = 1.50(10) T_c$, vanishes at $T = T_s$, and becomes a positive quantity at higher temperatures. The negative moment of inertia indicates a thermodynamic instability of rigid rotation. We derive the condition of thermodynamic stability of the vortical plasma and show how it relates to the scale anomaly and the magnetic gluon condensate. The rotational instability of gluon plasma shares a striking similarity with the rotational instabilities of spinning Kerr and Myers-Perry black holes.

Spatially inhomogeneous confinement-deconfinement phase transition in rotating QGP
First-principles lattice simulations identify a spatially inhomogeneous confinement-deconfinement transition in rotating gluon plasma, with confinement localizing at the periphery for real angular velocities.

Static Quark-Antiquark Interactions Under Rotation
In quenched SU(3) lattice gluodynamics, imaginary rotation suppresses bare Polyakov free energies above Tc with a bulk shift well fit by A R_xy^2 + B, while the T≈0 static potential shows no significant rotation dependence.

A Chromomagnetic Mechanism for the Rotational Phase Transition of Gluonic Matter
Using a rotation–magnetic holographic dictionary calibrated to lattice QCD, the paper predicts real rotation raises T_c and induces a negative total moment of inertia in pure gluonic matter near deconfinement.

Relativistic Barnett effect and Curie law in a rigidly rotating free Fermi gas
In a rigidly rotating free Fermi gas, the relativistic Barnett effect produces different Fermi energies for spin-up and spin-down fermions, leading to a moment of inertia that scales as 1/T at high temperature, analog...

QFT on rotating boxes at finite temperature
Rotating thermal boxes can be represented by path integrals on flat compact manifolds T^4/Z_k with rotated boundary conditions, allowing only discrete imaginary angular velocities.

Weak Bose-Einstein condensation in a rigidly rotating magnetized charged Bose gas
Rigid rotation does not restore a sharp BEC transition in a magnetized charged Bose gas; it only changes thermodynamics, and can flip the magnetic response toward paramagnetism.

Linear sigma model with quarks and Polyakov loop in rotation: phase diagrams, Tolman-Ehrenfest law and mechanical properties
Rotation lowers critical temperatures for chiral and deconfinement transitions in the Polyakov linear sigma model under causality constraints, with mechanical properties computed in the homogeneous limit.

Chromomagnetic Condensate in Finite-Temperature SU(2) Yang-Mills Theory under Imaginary Rotation
At one loop, imaginary rotation in the SU(2) Savvidy model enhances the chromomagnetic condensate and effective coupling, can suppress the Nielsen-Olesen instability in a finite window, and gives a negative moment-of-...
