Description
I will review the current status of equation of state calculations and deconfinement transition in 2+1 flavor QCD obtained using lattice calculations. I will discuss aspects of deconfinement related to fluctuations of conserved charges and screening of color charges in the deconfined medium using expectation value of Polyakov loop and Polyakov loop correlators.
