Various aspects and mechanisms of QCD colour confinement are surveyed. Following the
introduction of gauge-invariant order parameters, a field-correlator definition of the …

Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics The Confinement Problem in Lattice Gauge
Theory 1 Introduction Page 1 PERGAMON Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics …

This monograph surveys the role of some associative and non-associative algebras,
remarkable by their ubiquitous appearance in contemporary theoretical physics, particularly …

Quarks and gluons in the vacuum background field with a finite correlation length d are
shown to be linearly confined inside white states. The string tension for an arbitrary …

Abstract By fixing lattice Yang-Mills configurations to the maximal center gauge and
subsequently applying the technique of center projection, one can identify center vortices in …

The maximal center gauge, combined with center projection, is a means to associate Yang–
Mills lattice gauge configurations with closed center vortex world-surfaces. This technique …

Abstract Starting from Monte Carlo generated equilibrium gauge field configurations at β=
2.1 and 2.2 on a 6 4 lattice, representing the pysical vacuum, we systematically freeze the …

This book introduces a rapidly growing new research area? the study of dynamical
properties of elementary fields. The methods used in this field range from algebraic topology …

Statistical properties of the Yang-Mills classical mechanics (YMCM) are investigated from
the viewpoint or ergodic theory. The YMCM is shown to be a Kolmogorov K-system and …

Abstract By Monte Carlo calculations on a 12 4 lattice we investigate four-dimensional SU
(2) lattice gauge theory with respect to the conjecture that at large distances this theory …
