The nonperturbative first-principles study of QCD, carried out by large-scale numerical simulations of theory in its lattice formulation, is crucial for a complete description of particle-physics properties. Today, after more than forty years of intense computational as well as theoretical efforts, Lattice QCD is a mature field of research, with several dedicated international collaborati…
The topics proposed in this project represent mutual interests of the IFSC-USP lattice group and of the research group of Prof. Anastassios Vladikas, from INFN-Roma "Tor Vergata", who will visit the IFSC in August/September of the current year. Such topics are also important for the general line of research of the thematic project"Hadron Physics in Nuclear Collisions at High Energy", to w…

Color confinement is still a challenging problem in modern physics tied to the non-perturbative sector of the Yang-Mills theory. Among the various ideas proposed to explain this mechanism, the center vortex scenario, in which the Yang-Mills vacuum is dominated by color-magnetic field flux lines, successfully reproduces the color confinement phenomenology. Although the mechanism is not co…
This project proposes the development, by scholarship holder Artur Soares Rodrigues, of the calculation and analysis of quark and gluon propagators in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at finite temperature, in the lattice formulation. To this end, lattice QCD at zero temperature will initially be considered, with emphasis on conceptual aspects such as the area law and its relationship with co…
This project proposes an initial formation for the student João Octavio Kül on the research area of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) on the lattice formalism. In particular, it is intended to investigate the geometric aspects of gauge configurations space associated to the color confinement mechanism on QCD and similar theories. The so-called Gribov-Zwanziger scenario, which associates the de…
The understanding of color confinement in QCD is one of today's great open problems.Identifying quantities that allow a better characterization of confinement -and consequen-tly deconfinement, in extreme conditions- is of theoretical as well as phenomenologicalinterest. An important strategy is the investigation of the role played by special confi-gurations (of the theory's fields) associ…
Making a study of mathematical texts and introductory references in theoretical particle physics, we will verify the importance of an approach in terms of group theory and symmetries to obtain an overview of this research area. Additionally, a computational application will be made, considering the Ising Model as an example of spontaneous symmetry breaking, through Monte Carlo numerical s…

In this project, the objective is for the student to learn new techniques and algorithms in lattice field theories, and also to increase his theoretical knowledge in the area. The work is focused on calculating topological observables on the lattice, quantifying the critical slowing down effects associated to these determinations and analyzing the dependence of the topological susceptibil…
The quark-gluon vertex is an important object of QCD, the theory describing the strong interaction between quarks and gluons. Studies have shown that this quantity is relevant for the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking pattern in the vacuum. The goal of this project is to obtain the quark-gluon vertex at finite temperature around the deconfinement/chiral transition using the tools provide…
