Confinement in non-Abelian lattice gauge theory via persistent homology

D Spitz, JM Urban, JM Pawlowski - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We investigate the structure of confining and deconfining phases in SU (2) lattice gauge
theory via persistent homology, which gives us access to the topology of a hierarchy of …

Confining dyon-antidyon Coulomb liquid model. I.

Y Liu, E Shuryak, I Zahed - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We revisit the dyon-antidyon liquid model for the Yang-Mills confining vacuum discussed by
Diakonov and Petrov, by retaining the effects of the classical interactions mediated by the …

Double-winding Wilson loops and monopole confinement mechanisms

J Greensite, R Höllwieser - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We consider “double-winding” Wilson loops in SU (2) gauge theory. These are contours
which wind once around a loop C 1 and once around a loop C 2, where the two co-planar …

Chiral symmetry breaking/restoration in a dyonic vacuum

E Shuryak, T Sulejmanpasic - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation …, 2012 - APS
We discuss the topological phenomena in the QCD-like theories with a variable number of
fundamental fermions N f, focusing on the temperatures at or above the critical value T c of …

Dyons near the transition temperature in lattice QCD

VG Bornyakov, EM Ilgenfritz, BV Martemyanov… - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We study the topological structure of QCD by cluster analysis. The fermionic topological
charge density is constructed from low-lying modes of the overlap Dirac operator for three …

The abelian confinement mechanism revisited: New aspects of the Georgi–Glashow model

MM Anber - Annals of Physics, 2014 - Elsevier
The confinement problem remains one of the most difficult problems in theoretical physics.
An important step toward the solution of this problem is Polyakov's work on abelian …

Topology near the transition temperature in lattice gluodynamics analyzed by low lying modes of the overlap Dirac operator

EM Ilgenfritz, BV Martemyanov, M Müller-Preussker - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
Topological objects of SU (3) gluodynamics are studied at the infrared scale near the
transition temperature with the help of zero and near-zero modes of the overlap Dirac …

Dyon structures in the deconfinement phase of lattice gluodynamics: Topological clusters, holonomies, and Abelian monopoles

VG Bornyakov, EM Ilgenfritz, BV Martemyanov… - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
The topological structure of lattice gluodynamics is studied at intermediate resolution scale
in the deconfining phase with the help of a cluster analysis. UV-filtered topological charge …

Dyons and Roberge-Weiss transition in lattice QCD

VG Bornyakov, DL Boyda, VA Goy… - EPJ Web of …, 2017 - epj-conferences.org
We study lattice QCD with N f= 2 Wilson fermions at nonzero imaginary chemical potential
and nonzero temperature. We relate the Roberge-Weiss phase transition to the properties of …

Calculation of SU (2) string tension in the continuum limit by an effective theory of center vortices

Z Asmaee, M Kiamari, S Deldar - arxiv preprint arxiv:2312.03660, 2023 - arxiv.org
The area law fall-off for the Wilson loop average has been confirmed by lattice calculations.
Using an effective theory for an ensemble of center vortices, we observe the area law fall-off …
