The distribution of a gluon condensate in a flux tube is calculated. The result is that the chromoelectric fields are confined with a surrounding coset chromomagnetic field. Such picture presents the concrete realization of dual QCD model…
It is shown that, in some non-QCD theories, there are effects shared by QCD: (i)~in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory containing a nonlinear spinor field, there is a mass gap; (ii)~in SU(3) Proca-Higgs theory, there are flux tube solutions with a…
Using the framework of the Chromo Dielectric Model we perform an analysis of color electric flux tubes in meson-like $q\bar{q}$ and baryon-like $qqq$ quark configurations. We discuss the Abelian color structure of the model and point out a…

Within SU(2) Higgs-Proca theory, we obtain a family of nontopological static solutions describing localized, finite-energy configurations (Proca balls). The gauge symmetry of the theory is explicitly broken by introducing a vector Proca…
We study the equations of motion of the SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. Since the gluons, at scales of the order of 1 $fm$, can be considered as classical fields, we suppose that the gauge fields ($A_\mu^a$) of this theory are the gluonic fields…
An attempt is made to describe from first principles the large-scale structure of the confining vacuum in quantum chromodynamics. Starting from our previous variational studies of the SU(2) pure gauge theory in an external Abelian…
