Introduction

“sign problem”

In lattice QCD at finite density,

For small chemical potential,

reweighting, Taylor expansion, canonical ensemble,imaginary chemical potential, density of states, …

two-color QCD, isospin chemical potential,chiral chemical potential

For large chemical potential,

Chiral chemical potential

Chiral chemical potential produces a chirally imbalanced matter.

Chiral Magnetic Effect[D.E.Kharzeev, L.D.McLerran, H.J.Warringa (2007)]

Early Universe

[from BNL’s web page]

chiral magnetic effect:

charge separation induced by a strong magnetic field

via the axial anomaly, i.e., nontrivial topology

If L = R, the net current is zero.If L R, the net current is nonzero.

Renormalization

renormalization factor:

cf.) nonperturbative renormalization

[L.Maiani, G.Martinelli (1986)]

The local vector current is renormalization-group variant on the lattice.

Lattice spacing

The induced current depends on the lattice spacing.

Spatial volume Quark mass

The induced current is independent of volume and quark mass.

Summary

• We have performed a lattice QCD simulation with the chiral chemical potential.

• By applying an external magnetic field, we have obtained the induced current by the chiral magnetic effect.

• The continuum extrapolation is quantitatively important.

• chiral symmetry ?
