We investigate the phase structure of 3-flavor QCD in the presence of finite quark chemical potential by using Wilson-Clover fermions. To deal with the complex action with finite density, we adopt the phase reweighting method. In order to survey a wide parameter region, we employ the multi-parameter reweighting method as well as the multi-ensemble reweighting method. Especially, we focus on locating the critical end point that characterizes the phase structure. It is estimated by the kurtosis intersection method for the quark condensate. For Wilson-type fermions, the correspondence between bare parameters and physical parameters is indirect, thus we present a strategy to transfer the bare parameter phase structure to the physical one. We conclude that the curvature with respect to the chemical potential is positive. This implies that, if one starts from a quark mass in the region of crossover at zero chemical potential, one would encounter a first-order phase transition when one raises the chemical potential.

We study the nature of the finite temperature phase transition for three-flavor QCD. In particular we investigate the location of the critical endpoint along the three flavor symmetric line in the light quark mass region of the Columbia plot. In the study, the Iwasaki gauge action and the nonperturvatively O($a$) improved Wilson-Clover fermion action are employed. We newly generate data at $N_{rm t}=12$ and set an upper bound of the critical pseudoscalar meson mass in the continuum limit $m_{rm PS,E}lesssim 110$MeV.
We present an update of the finite temperature phase structure analysis for three flavor QCD. In the study the Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturvatively O($a$) improved Wilson-Clover fermion action are employed. We discuss finite size scaling analysis including mixings of magnetization-like and energy-like observables. Preliminary results are shown of the continuum limit of the critical point using newly generated data at Nt=8,10, including estimates of the critical pseudo-scalar meson mass and critical temperature.
We study the finite temperature phase structure for three-flavor QCD with a focus on locating the critical point which separates crossover and first order phase transition region in the chiral regime of the Columbia plot. In this study, we employ the Iwasaki gauge action and the non-perturvatively O($a$) improved Wilson-Clover fermion action. We discuss the finite size scaling analysis including the mixing of magnetization-like and energy-like observables. We carry out the continuum extrapolation of the critical point using newly generated data at $N_{rm t}=8$, $10$ and estimate the upper bound of the critical pseudo-scalar meson mass $m_{rm PS,E} lesssim 170 {rm MeV}$ and the critical temperature $T_{rm E}=134(3){rm MeV}$. Our estimate of the upper bound is derived from the existence of the critical point as an edge of the 1st order phase transition while that of the staggered-type fermions is based on its absence.
The ${rm SU}(3)$ pure gauge theory exhibits a first-order thermal deconfinement transition due to spontaneous breaking of its global $Z_3$ center symmetry. When heavy dynamical quarks are added, this symmetry is broken explicitly and the transition weakens with decreasing quark mass until it disappears at a critical point. We compute the critical hopping parameter and the associated pion mass for lattice QCD with $N_f=2$ degenerate standard Wilson fermions on $N_tauin{6,8,10}$ lattices, corresponding to lattice spacings $a=0.12, {rm fm}$, $a=0.09, {rm fm}$, $a=0.07, {rm fm}$, respectively. Significant cut-off effects are observed, with the first-order region growing as the lattice gets finer. While current lattices are still too coarse for a continuum extrapolation, we estimate $m_pi^capprox 4 {rm GeV}$ with a remaining systematic error of $sim 20%$. Our results allow to assess the accuracy of the LO and NLO hopping expanded fermion determinant used in the literature for various purposes. We also provide a detailed investigation of the statistics required for this type of calculation, which is useful for similar investigations of the chiral transition.
We investigate the critical endpoints of the finite temperature phase transition of QCD at zero chemical potential. We employ the renormalization-group improved Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturbatively O(a)-improved Wilson-clover fermion action. The critical endpoints are determined by using the intersection point of kurtosis, employing the multi-parameter, multi-ensemble reweighting method. We present results for the critical endline at $N_{rm T}$ = 6 and the continuum extrapolation for the critical endpoint of the SU(3)-flavor symmetric point.
