abstract
We calculate the renormalization group flows of all perturbatively renormalizable interactions in the three-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau potential for the chiral phase transition of three-flavor quantum chromodynamics. On the contrary to the common belief we find a fixed point in the system that is able to describe a second-order phase transition in the infrared. This shows that long-standing assumptions on the transition order might be false. If the transition is indeed of second-order, our results may hint that the axial $U(1)$ symmetry restores at the transition temperature.

On the nature of the QCD chiral phase transition with imaginary chemical potential
First-order chiral regions observed on coarse staggered lattices disappear in tricritical points as the lattice spacing decreases at imaginary chemical potential, implying a second-order continuum transition.

Quark mass dependence of a QCD critical point and structure of the Columbia plot
In a truncated Dyson-Schwinger setup, the QCD critical point moves to higher temperature and lower baryon chemical potential as light quark masses decrease toward the chiral limit.

The order of the chiral phase transition in massless many-flavour lattice QCD
Lattice QCD simulations with up to seven flavors indicate that the first-order chiral transition seen on coarse lattices is a cutoff artifact, so the continuum chiral transition is second-order for all flavors up to t...
