A new critical endpoint is pinned down in the thermomagnetic-QCD phase structure, which is suggested to be present between the two-flavor and three-flavor massless limits. It is signaled by the electromagnetic scale anomaly in QCD, and is shown to be most eminent in a weak magnetic field regime, which is not well explored on lattice QCD.

We explore the low-energy regime of quantum chromodynamics subjected to an external magnetic field by deriving the two-loop representations for the entropy density and the magnetization within chiral perturbation theory (CHPT). At fixed temperature,
the entropy density drops when the magnetic field becomes stronger. The magnetization induced at finite temperature is negative in the entire parameter region accessible by CHPT. We also point out that the enhancement of the finite-temperature part in the quark condensate is correlated with the decrease of the entropy density.
Discrete symmetries in grand canonical ensembles and in ensembles canonical with respect to triality are investigated. We speculate about the general phase structure of finite temperature gauge theories with discrete $Z(N)$ symmetry. Low and high tem
perature phases turn out to be different in both ensembles even for infinite systems. It is argued that gauge theories with matter fields in the fundamental representation should be treated in ensembles canonical with respect to triality if one wants to avoid unphysical predictions. Further, we discuss as a physical consequence of such a treatment the impossibility of the existence of metastable phases in the quark-gluon plasma.
We show, in general, that when a discontinuity of either zeroth-order or first-order takes place in an order parameter such as the chiral condensate, discontinuities of the same order emerge in other order parameters such as the Polyakov loop. A cond
ition for the coexistence theorem to be valid is clarified. Consequently, only when the condition breaks down, zeroth-order and first-order discontinuities can coexist on a phase boundary. We show with the Polyakov-loop extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model that such a type of coexistence is realized in the imaginary chemical potential region of the QCD phase diagram. We also present examples of coexistence of the same-order discontinuities in the real chemical potential region.
We present an estimate of the behaviour of the shear and bulk viscosity coefficients when the QCD critical point is approached from the hadronic side, describing hadronic matter within the statistical bootstrap model (SBM) of strong interactions. The
boostrap model shows critical behavior near the quark-hadron transition temperature if the parameter characterizing the degeneracy of Hagedorn states is properly chosen. We calculate the critical exponents and amplitudes of relevant thermodynamic quantities near the QCD critical point and combine them with an Ansatz for the shear and bulk viscosity coefficients to derive the behavior of these coefficients near the critical point. The shear viscosity to entropy density ratio is found to decrease when the temperature is increased, and to approach the Kovtun-Son-Starinets bound 1/(4{pi}) faster near the critical point, while the bulk viscosity coefficient is found to rise very rapidly.
We propose a novel constraint on the gauge dynamics of strongly interacting gauge theories stemming from the a theorem. The inequality we suggest is used to provide a lower bound on the conformal window of four dimensional gauge theories.
