Nonperturbative equation of state of quark-gluon plasma

The paper is devoted to the systematic derivation of nonperturbative thermodynamics of quark-gluon plasma, on the basis of the background perturbation theory. Vacuum background fields enter only in the form of field correlators, which are known from lattice and analytic calculations. In the lowest order in $α_s$ the purely nonperturbative $sQGP$ thermodynamics is expressed through single quark and gluon lines (single line approximation) which are interacting nonperturbatively with vacuum fields and with other lines. Nonperturbative EOS is obtained in terms (of the absolute value) of fundamental (adjoint) Polyakov loop $L_{fund(adj)}$ and spatial string tension $σ_s(T)$. In the lowest approximation the pressure for quarks (gluons) has a simple factorized form $P_{q(g)}= P_{SB} L_{fund(adj)} ,$ where $L_i$ describe the action of vacuum colorelectric fields on particle trajectory.
