    Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to whethera critical point exists on the phase diagram ofstrongly interacting matter (quark matter). Themain tool for extracting quantitative results is basedon Monte Carlo algorithms. Unfortunately, at �nitebaryon densities all Monte Carlo algorithms su�erfrom the sign problem.

    We revisit a well-known method in statisticalmechanics called Series Expansion Method, whichprovides an alternative way to overcome the signproblem.

    An SU(3) spin model is used as a �rst step to dealwith QCD at �nite chemical potential.

    SU(3) spin modelThe SU(3) spin model is a three dimensional e�ecti-ve theory of QCD at strong coupling limit and largequark mass limit. The partition function of the modelreads

    Z =

    ∫D[U0] exp

    τ ∑〈~x,~y〉

    (L~xL∗~y + L

    ∗~xL~y)

    +κ∑~x

    (eaµL~x + e−aµL∗~x)

    ),

    where L~x’s are Polyakov loops, κ ∼ m−2q . The �rstterm presents the nearest neighbour interaction ofPolyakov loops, while the second term couples thesystem to quarks at �nite chemical potential µ.

    A particular observable that was used in our compu-tation is the susceptibility of equilibrium Polyakovloop L, which diverges near critical points:

    L =1V

    ∑~x

    (L~x + L∗~x),

    χL =1V

    ∂2 logZ[J]∂J2

    Conclusions• Analytic calculations for the SU(3) spin mo-

    del via LCE are done for the �rst time.

    • Our results agree with those from simulati-on with �ux representation algorithm withinerrors.

    • To include the parameter µ it is needed tocompute higher orders.

    • Our next goal is to apply the series expansionmethod to improved e�ective theories.

    Linked Cluster Expansion (LCE)Similar to the generating functional for connected diagrams in QFT, we de�ne the grand canonical potentialas

    W[J,ν] = logZ[J,ν]

    where Z[J,ν] is the partition function coupled to an external source J. A linked cluster expansion (LCE) ofthe grand canonical potential is then de�ned as the Taylor expansion with respect to the coupling v(x,y)around the free theory,

    W[J,ν] =(exp

    (ν(~x,~y)

    δ

    δν̂(~x,~y)

    )W[J, ν̂]

    ) ∣∣∣ν̂=0

    There is a very simple expression ofW through graph representation,

    In each term of the graph representation, the number of bonds corresponds to the order of the coupling ν. Inadditions, to complete the computation one also needs to calculate integrals at each vertices of graphs, e.g.

    Imn =

    ∫dU0LmL∗n

    Series AnalysisThe Polyakov loop susceptibility computed up toorder K = 13 is a series of the interaction couplingτ while the coe�cients are functions of κ and µ,

    χL =

    K∑n=0

    cn(κ,µ)τn.

    These polynomials are obviously not divergent nearcritical points. Thus, the (generalised) Pade’ approxi-mant is needed for extracting information about cri-tical points and critical exponents. Example: for onecoupling series (κ = 0), the Polyakov loop suscepti-bility near τc behaves as

    χL ∼1

    (τ− τc)γ→ d

    dτlog χL ∼

    −γ
