In this talk, I present the status of attempts to analyze the behavior of the so-called spatial t Hooft loop, which can be taken as an order parameter for the deconfinement phase transition in pure SU(N) gauge theory. While lattice data show a strikingly universal scaling of extracted k-string tensions for various values of k and N, the analytic approach to these observables might need some refinement.

We derive a static potential for a heavy quark-antiquark pair propagating in Minkowski time at finite temperature, by defining a suitable gauge-invariant Greens function and computing it to first non-trivial order in Hard Thermal Loop resummed pertur
bation theory. The resulting Debye-screened potential could be used in models that attempt to describe the ``melting of heavy quarkonium at high temperatures. We show, in particular, that the potential develops an imaginary part, implying that thermal effects generate a finite width for the quarkonium peak in the dilepton production rate. For quarkonium with a very heavy constituent mass M, the width can be ignored for T lsim g^2 M/12pi, where g^2 is the strong gauge coupling; for a physical case like bottomonium, it could become important at temperatures as low as 250 MeV. Finally, we point out that the physics related to the finite width originates from the Landau-damping of low-frequency gauge fields, and could be studied non-perturbatively by making use of the classical approximation.
We give a short review on recent progress in the field of automated calculations in finite-temperature field theory, where integration-by-parts techniques have proven (almost) as useful as in the zero-temperature case. Furthermore, we provide one con
crete example of an evaluation of a new three-loop master sum-integral that exhibits maximal divergence.
The hypothesis that the QCD vacuum can be modeled as a dual superconductor is a powerful tool to describe the distribution of the color field generated by a quark-antiquark static pair and, as such, can provide useful clues for the understanding of c
onfinement. In this work we investigate, by lattice Monte Carlo simulations of the $SU(3)$ pure gauge theory and of (2+1)-flavor QCD with physical mass settings, some properties of the chromoelectric flux tube at zero temperature and their dependence on the physical distance between the static sources. We draw some conclusions about the validity domain of the dual superconductor picture.
Following Caron-Huot and combining results for the thermal dependence of spectral functions at large time-like momenta, we write an explicit expression for the thermal width of the Higgs boson to $mathcal{O}(alpha_mathrm{s})$ for $T ll M_H$. It is an
$mathcal{O}( alpha_mathrm{s} (T/M_H)^4 )$ correction for $Hto gg$ and $Hto qbar{q}$. We also compile corresponding results for the thermal width of the $Z$-boson, and we recall which generic structures of the field theory, accessible via the operator product expansion, fix the $T/M$-dependence of the decay of heavy particles.
We discuss the chiral phase transition of hot and dense quark matter. We illustrate that the first-order phase transition is generally favored at high baryon density and the repulsive vector-vector interaction weakens the first-order phase transition
. We use the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with the Polyakov loop coupling for concreteness. We locate the QCD critical surface on the quark mass plane for various values of the vector coupling constant. We find that, with increasing quark chemical potential, the first-order region in the quark mass plane could shrink for sufficiently large vector coupling. This may be a possible explanation for the recent lattice QCD results by de Forcrand and Philipsen.
