Description

The Bethe Ansatz is an elegant method to solve strongly interacting quantum systems. It has many applications, often quite unexpected. One such is chiral phase transition. Chiral symmetry restoration is a spectacular phenomenon expected to happen in QCD at high enough temperatures and densities, but mapping the phase diagram of QCD is a very difficult problem. Similar phenomena occur in simpler two-dimensional models, some even exactly solvable.The phase diagram can then be explored by powerful techniques of the Bethe Ansatz.
