Phase transitions of a (super) quantum mechanical matrix model with a chemical potential

Abstract In this paper, we study the finite-temperature matrix quantum mechanics with chemical potential term linear in the single trace of U(N) matrices, via Monte Carlo simulation. In the bosonic case, we exhibit the existence of the Gross-Witten-Wadia (GWW) type third-order phase transition. We a...
