Zhang, 12 2012  Chiral restoration (m=0) well defined Order parameter: Chiral condensate Two-flavor with the U(1)A anomaly 2nd-order phase transition with O(4) universality class Critical point for m>0 ? It’s Location? Only one ? It’s number ? How to detect it in HIC Expt. ? Pisarski and welczek, PRD 29, 338(1984)

1.2. Conjectured phase diagram of QCD Z. Zhang, 12 2012 Common feature: At least one QCD critical point included. Its existence and location is dynamical problem, determined by QCD itself Problem: Nonperturbative The first principle at finite density, sign problem QCD models and QCD-like theory 1 2. 3. K.

1.6 The effect of Axial anomaly-mixing Z. Zhang, 12 2012 M. Frank, M. Buballa and M. Oertel, PLB 562 (2003) 221 The fate of the two critical points depends on the degree of the U(1)A asymmetry ! Effect of the flavor-mixing induced by axial anomaly Two-flavor NJL model ‘t Hooft interaction Rough estimate: Mass flavor-mixing Two first-order lines for

1.6 U(1)A restoration at finite T in lattice simulations Z. Zhang, 12 2012 Recent lattice formulations on the U(1)A symmetry restoration at finite T (1) A.Bazavov, et al. (HotQCD Collaboration) PRD 86, 094503 (2012) Lattice: Domain wall fermions Chiral symmetry restoration U(1)A symmetry restoration Dirac spectral density The axial anomaly effect may be suppressed significantly near the chiral boundary ? ! Banks-Casher relation

Z. Zhang, 12 2012 G. Cossu, S. Aoki et al. PRD 87, 114514 (2013) Lattice: Overlap fermions Dirac Spectral density Recent lattice formulations on the U(1)A symmetry restoration at finite T (2) 1.7 U(1)A restoration at finite T in lattice simulations

2. Non-anomaly flavor-mixing induced by vector interactions Z. Zhang, 12 2012 Both Lattice results suggest the axial U(1)A symmetry is effectively restored in the Chiral symmetric phase (for T>=Tc). If it is true, we can expect that the same thing may happen at finite density. The question: Can the two critical points at finite isospin chemical potential survive if the anomaly flavor-mixing is suppressed significantly near the chiral boundary ? Other possible flavor-mixing ? One possibility : Mismatched vector interactions in the isoscalar and Isovector channels may lead to a non-anomaly flavor mixing at finite Isospin chemical potential.

Non-anomaly flavor-mixing induced by vector interactions General four-fermion interactions with the flavor symmetry Vector-isoscalar interactionVector-isovector interaction Chiral symmetry does not require the two couplings are identical in the four-fermion interaction model Two types of vector interactions in NJL type model:

Z. Zhang, 12 2012 Phase diagrams at small isospin chemical potentials under the influence of the non-anomaly flavor-mixing (without the anomaly flavor-mixing ) must be much stronger than To change the two 1 st order lines into one,
