The equation of state of QCD matter at high densities is relevant for neutron star structure and for neutron star mergers and has been a focus of recent work. We show how lattice QCD simulations, free of sign problems, can provide an upper bound on the pressure as a function of quark chemical potentials. We show that at large chemical potentials this bound should become quite sharp; the difference between the upper bound on the pressure P-phase-quenched and the true pressure P is of order alpha^3 P. The corrections arise from a single Feynman diagram; its calculation would render remaining corrections of order alpha^4 P.

Perturbative QCD reveals the softening of matter in the cores of massive neutron stars
First-principles perturbative QCD constraints, propagated via thermodynamic consistency, reveal that the neutron-star equation of state must soften near the maximum stable mass, favoring quark matter cores or a phase ...

First-order phase transition in dynamical 3-flavor QCD at imaginary isospin
Three-flavor QCD at imaginary isospin 4 pi T/3 has a first-order deconfinement transition, as shown by finite-size scaling of the rotated Polyakov loop.

Coherent State Path Integral Reveals Unexpected Vacuum Structure in Thermal Field Theory
A coherent-state derivation of the thermal partition function yields extra vacuum and mass-coupling terms that the authors claim are novel, though these terms reflect the chosen operator ordering.
