3WLA.00001: Theoretical overview of the QCD critical point search Invited Speaker: Mikhail Stephanov Mapping QCD phase diagram and determining the physics of its phases and phase transitions is a major goal of heavy-ion collision experiments. QCD critical point is a crucial landmark on the QCD phase diagram. The search for this point in heavy-ion collisions requires quantitative understanding of the physics near criticality, in particular, of the critical fluctuations and their dynamics in the expanding fireball. Recent progress in the development of the theoretical framework necessary for the discovery of the QCD critical point signatures will be reviewed in this talk. |

3WLA.00002: Theoretical study of QCD phase diagram at High Baryon Density Invited Speaker: Masakiyo Kitazawa Searching for signals of phase transitions in dense QCD is one of the most important but challenging subjects in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Mediums with various densities and temperatures can be produced in these experiments with the variation of the collision energy, and they are ongoing worldwide at RHIC-STAR, GSI-HADES, NA61/SHINE, etc. In this talk, I would like to discuss several theoretical topics concerning the search for the QCD critical point and a color-superconducting phase transition in these experiments. These topics include the search for the QCD critical point with non-Gaussian fluctuations and the use of the ultra-low-energy region of the dilepton production rate as a signal of the second-order phase transition in dense QCD. The present status of the J-PARC heavy ion program, which is a future experiment that investigates dense quark matter, will also be reviewed. |

3WLA.00003: Overview on Lattice Calculation at finite baryon density Invited Speaker: Claudia Ratti I will review the status of lattice QCD simulations at finite baryon density, including the Equation of State, phase transition line and other important observables. I will connect these results to experimental measurements and current and future experiments. |
