In this contribution we revisit simulations of two-color QCD with rooted staggered quarks at finite density, where baryon-number spontaneously breaks and a diquark condensate forms. We thereby pay special attention to simulating outside the lattice-artifact bulk phase, in which $Z_2$ monopoles condense, and investigate some of the consequences of this, e.g. on the chiral and the diquark condensate which were known to be well described by chiral effective field theory. Not surprisingly, on finer lattices outside the bulk phase the quark condensate now requires additive renormalization before it can be compared with effective field theory predictions. The subtraction must necessarily depend on the chemical potential, however. The diquark condensate is not affected by this problem and remains in good agreement with these predictions. We also compare staggered with Wilson quarks to demonstrate that the two fermion discretizations yield qualitatively different results well below half-filling already. We close with prelimiary results for the Goldstone spectrum to demonstrate that the continuum pattern is recovered also with staggered quarks outside the bulk phase.

We carry out lattice simulations of two-color QCD and spectroscopy at finite density with two flavors of rooted-staggered quarks and a diquark source term. As in a previous four-flavor study, for small values of the inverse gauge coupling we observe
a Goldstone spectrum which reflects the symmetry-breaking pattern of a Gaussian symplectic chiral random-matrix ensemble (GSE) with Dyson index $beta_D=4$, which corresponds to any-color QCD with adjoint quarks in the continuum instead of QC$_2$D wih fundamental quarks. We show that this unphysical behavior occurs only inside of the bulk phase of $SU(2)$ gauge theory, where the density of $Z_2$ monopoles is high. Using an improved gauge action and a somewhat larger inverse coupling to suppress these monopoles, we demonstrate that the continuum Goldstone spectrum of two-color QCD, corresponding to a Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) with Dyson index $beta_D=1$, is recovered also with rooted-staggered quarks once simulations are performed away from the bulk phase. We further demonstrate how this change of random-matrix ensemble is reflected in the distribution of eigenvalues of the Dirac operator. By computing the unfolded level spacings inside and outside of the bulk phase, we demonstrate that, starting with the low-lying eigenmodes which determine the infrared physics, the distribution of eigenmodes continuously changes from the GSE to the GOE one as monopoles are suppressed.
We present preliminary results about the critical line of QCD with two degenerate staggered quarks at nonzero temperature and chemical potential, obtained by the method of analytic continuation. As in our previous studies with different numbers of co
lors and flavors, we find deviations from a simple quadratic dependence on the chemical potential. We comment on the shape of the critical line at real chemical potential and give an estimate of the curvature of the critical line, both for quark chemical potential and isospin chemical potential.
We study the equation of state in two-flavor QCD at finite temperature and density. Simulations are made with the RG-improved gluon action and the clover-improved Wilson quark action. Along the lines of constant physics for $m_{rm PS}/m_{rm V} = 0.65
$ and 0.80, we compute the derivatives of the quark determinant with respect to the quark chemical potential $mu_q$ up to the fourth order at $mu_q=0$. We adopt several improvement techniques in the evaluation. We study thermodynamic quantities and quark number susceptibilities at finite $mu_q$ using these derivatives. We find enhancement of the quark number susceptibility at finite $mu_q$, in accordance with previous observations using staggered-type quarks. This suggests the existence of a nearby critical point.
In preparation of lattice studies of the two-color QCD phase diagram we study chiral restoration and deconfinement at finite temperature with two flavors of staggered quarks using an RHMC algorithm on GPUs. We first study unquenching effects in local
Polyakov loop distributions, and the Polyakov loop potential obtained via Legendre transformation, in a fixed-scale approach for heavier quarks. We also present the chiral condensate and the corresponding susceptibility over the lattice coupling across the chiral transition for lighter quarks. Using Ferrenberg-Swendsen reweighting we extract the maxima of the chiral susceptibility in order to determine pseudo-critical couplings on various lattices suitable for chiral extrapolations. These are then used to fix the relation between coupling and temperature in the chiral limit.
In order to study the running coupling in four-flavour QCD, we review the set-up of the Schrodinger functional (SF) with staggered quarks. Staggered quarks require lattices which, in the usual counting, have even spatial lattice extent $L/a$ while th
e time extent $T/a$ must be odd. Setting $T=L$ is therefore only possible up to ${rm O}(a)$, which introduces different cutoff effects already in the pure gauge theory. We re-define the SF such as to cope with this situation and determine the corresponding classical background field. A perturbative calculation yields the coefficient of the pure gauge ${rm O}(a)$ boundary counterterm to one-loop order.
