In this paper we provide an overview on the foundation and first results of a very recent quantum theory of color perception, together with novel results about uncertainty relations for chromatic opposition. The major inspiration for this…
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…
An introductory paper to the graph k-colorability problem.
This paper is a collection of thoughts and observations, being partly a review and partly a report of current research, on recent work in various aspects of Gr\"unbaum colorings, their existence and usage. In particular, one of the most…
A well-known result of Alon shows that the coloring number of a graph is bounded by a function of its choosability. We explore this relationship in a more general setting with relaxed assumptions on color classes, encoded by a graph…
An overview of the recent developments in plurifine potential theory.
A scaling analysis is made of the order parameter describing monopole condensation at the deconfining transition of N_f=2 QCD around the chiral point. In accordance with scaling properties of the specific heat, studied in a previous paper,…
Gauge field configurations appropriate for the infrared region of QCD are proposed. Using the usual QCD action, confinement is realized as in the London theory of Meissner effect.
We study the confining properties of QCD with two colors across the finite density phase transition. A disorder parameter detecting dual superconductivity of the QCD vacuum is used as a probe for the confinement/deconfinement phase…
Recent results on the gapless 2SC phase are reviewed. These include: the thermal stability under the constraint of the local charge neutrality condition, the properties at zero and nonzero temperatures, and the color screening properties.
We argue that clustering of color sources, leading to the percolation transition, may be the way to achieve deconfinement in heavy ion collisions. The critical density for percolation is related to the effective critical temperature of the…
Alpha clustering and alpha condensation in lighter nuclei is presently strongly and increasingly discussed in the literature both from the experimental side as from the theoretical one. A discussion of the present status of the theory as…
The analogy between the phenomenon of live and collective states in Condensed Matter was supposed by several well-known physicists. The possibility of experimental verification of this hypothesis is discussed.
In this talk I will review some recent progress in our understanding of properties of high density quark matter. This talk is based mainly on the papers hep-ph/0011379, hep-ph/0012041, hep-ph/0108260, and cond-mat/0103451, done in…
I discuss a few issues related with deconfinement at finite baryon density by considering lattice results for two colors QCD and ``toy'' studies of three colors QCD.
Fermionic artificial matter realized with cold atoms grants access to an unprecedented degree of control on sophisticated many-body effects with an enhanced flexibility of the operating conditions. We consider three-component fermions with…
The road colouring theorem characterizes the class of strongly connected directed graphs with constant out-degree that admit a synchronizing road colouring. The subject of this paper is a pair of related conjectures that generalize the road…
We establish the various properties as well as diverse relations of the ascent and descent spectra for bounded linear operators. We specially focus on the theory of subspectrum. Furthermore, we construct a new concept of convergence for…
We review the recent progress made in understanding instantons at finite temperature (calorons) with non-trivial holonomy, and their monopole constituents as relevant degrees of freedom for the confined phase.
It is shown that a sufficient condition for color confinement is given by Z_3^{-1}=0, where Z_3 denotes the renormalization constant of the color gauge field.
