The purpose of this article is to apply the concept of the spectral triple, the starting point for the analysis of noncommutative spaces in the sense of A.~Connes, to the case where the algebra $\cA$ contains both bosonic and fermionic…
he colour fields, created by static sources belonging to different SU(3) representations, from the 3 to the 27, are computed in quenched SU(3) lattice QCD, in a 24^3 x 48 lattice at beta=6.2 and a=0.07261(85) fm. We utilize the technique of…
A generalization of the Lagrangian introduced earlier in [2011 {\it J. Phys. G} ${\bf 37}$ 105001] for a classical color spinning particle interacting with background non-Abelian gauge and fermion fields for purpose of considering a change…
We study the stability of the different quark substructures in a quark cluster approach to pentaquark states considering the color-magnetic spin-spin interactions between quarks. The most likely configuration is found to be a…
Singular gauge fields in the partition function for QCD can lead to a domain-like picture for the QCD vacuum by virtue of constraints on quantum fluctuations at the singularities. With a simple model of hyperspherical domains with interiors…
Mesons constructed from the quark propagators without the lowest-lying eigenmodes of the Dirac operator reveal not only restored SU(2)_L * SU(2)_R chiral and U(1)_A symmetries, but actually a higher symmetry. All possible chiral and U(1)_A…
The effective potential of composite diquark fields responsible for color symmetry breaking in cold very dense QCD, in which long-range interactions dominate, is derived. The spectrum of excitations and the universality class of this…
We extend our proposal that major universality classes of hadronic matter can be understood, and in favorable cases calculated, directly in the microscopic quark variables, to allow for splitting between strange and light quark masses. A…
The Dirac equation in a chromomagnetic field is solved for colored particle moving in a limited space volume. Quantized energy levels and the corresponding wave functions are found for backgrounds both directed along third axes and having…
In this paper, we construct a theory of the NJL-type where superconductivity is present, and yet the super-conducting state remains, in the average, color symmetric. This shows that the present approach to color superconductivity is…
According to the present understanding, the observed diversity of the strong interaction phenomena is described by Quantum Chromodynamics, a gauge field theory with only very few parameters. One of the fundamental questions in this context…
As was shown by Leutwyler and Smilga, the fact that chiral symmetry is broken and the existence of a effective finite volume partition function leads to an infinite number of sum rules for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator in QCD. In…
We derive the quantum kinetic equations for massive and massless quarks coupled with the background chromo-electromagnetic fields from the Wigner-function approach with the $\hbar$ expansion and effective power-counting scheme. For each…
The role of models in Quantum Chromodynamics is to produce simple physical pictures that connect the phenomenological regularities with the underlying structure. The static properties of hadrons have provided experimental input to define a…
A new color basis system and confinement mechanism for multi-quark systems are proposed according to the string-type picture of QCD. The color string configurations in the strong coupling QCD are implemented in the set of color basis…
We consider solutions to the $4$-color problem for the vertices of sphere triangulations with degree sequence $6,...,6,4,4,4,4,4,4$. We sort these solutions into combinatorial types and show that each generic type $\tau$ is parametrized by…
Yang-Mills theories with a gauge group SU(N_c\=3)and quark matter in the fundamental representation share many properties with the theory of strong interactions, QCD with N_c=3. We show that, for N_c even and in the confinement phase, the…
Only two-body [${\rm F}_{i} \cdot {\rm F}_{j}$] confining potentials have been considered, thus far, in the quark model without gluons, which by construction can only depend on the quadratic Casimir operator of the colour SU(3) group. A…
These lectures provide an overview of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the $SU(3)_C$ gauge theory of the strong interactions. After briefly reviewing the empirical considerations which lead to the introduction of {\it colour}, the QCD…
Using lattice Monte Carlo simulations of SU(3) pure gauge theory, we determine the spatial distribution of all components of the color fields created by a static quark and antiquark. We identify the components of the measured chromoelectric…
