  87. Taylor expansion: a general purpose approximation Taylor expansion of log det M Lattice QCD at non-zero baryonic density ? E.-M. Ilgenfritz An alternative, and more modest, idea relies on a Taylor Introduction series expansion of the logarithm of the determinant in Quantum statistics and the µ/ T around µ = 0. It applies to the full interior of the QCD partition function phase diagram. The coefficients of the expansion Chemical can be calculated using conventional simulations potential on the lattice at µ = 0, where the sign problem is fortunately absent. Phase quenching This approach is continuously pursued by several groups: can’t treat the complex-weight Allton (2002), Gavai (2004), Allton (2005), problem Kaczmarek (2011), Endrodi (2011), Borsanyi (2012).
