Merons, conjectured as a semiclassical mechanism for color confinement in QCD, are topological charge-1/2, singular solutions to the classical Yang-Mills equations of motion. I will discuss how lattice techniques can extend the study of…

The normal-state resistivity of the cuprate superconductors is metallic in the $ab$ plane but is characteristic of an insulator along the $c$ direction, leading to the possibility of the remarkable phenomenon of confinement. By continuity,…

The t-J model in the spinless-fermion representation is studied. An effective Hamiltonian for the quasiparticles is derived using canonical transformation approach. It is shown that the rather simple form of the transformation generator…
The role of monopoles in the confining behavior of compact lattice $QED_3$ is studied using an adiabatic cooling method. Monopole-antimonopole pairs with large separation suvive cooling and the presence or absence of such plasma monopoles…
Nonequilibrium interplay between charge, spin and lattice degrees of freedom on a square lattice is studied for a single charge carrier doped in the t-J-Holstein model. In the presence of an uniform electric field we calculate the…
We classify ``truly confining'' (t-confining) supersymmetric gauge theories, in which no center charges can be screened, and Wilson loops in the fundamental representation are therefore expected to exhibit an area law. In all cases, we…
We developed a theory of charge transport in a system of non-interacting polarons. The theory was conducted to a compact relation through a nonperturbative method based on electron-phonon Hamiltonian. The derived final result represents…
Hole doped transition metal oxides are famous due to their extraordinary charge transport properties, such as high temperature superconductivity (cuprates) and colossal magnetoresistance (manganites). Astonishing, the mother system of these…
