Interweaving Chiral Spirals at finite quark density
  The interweaving chiral spirals (ICS), that is defined as superposition of differently oriented chiral spirals, is important for qualitative understandings of the intermediate quark density region as well as quantitative estimates of the Quarkyonic region. We discuss how to construct the ICS, taking the (2+1) dimensional Fermi system as an example. We postulate that the presence of the ICS would delay the occurrence of the chiral restoration as well as deconfinement phase transition, by tempering the growth of quark fluctuations.
