We analytically show that mesonic bound states of confined monopoles appear inside a non-Abelian vortex-string in massless three-flavor QCD at large quark chemical potential mu. The orientational modes CP^2 in the internal space of a vortex…
We investigate the possible ground states of QCD at asymptotic densities, where the theory is expected to exhibit color superconductivity. We characterize the color-flavor structure of possible diquark condensates, and find those that are…
As a color confinement mechanism, a dual Meissner effect due to Abelian monopoles involved in QCD has been discussed so far in various ways. But still there is an important problem unsolved. It is gauge invariance of the schemes or, in…
It is argued that there are two phases in QCD distinguished by different choices of the gauge parameter. In one phase the color confinement is realized and gluons turn out to be massive, whereas in the other phase it ceases to be realized,…
The disorder parameter $<\mu>$ for the condensation of monopoles in QCD is estimated analytically in terms of gauge invariant field strength correlators. The continuum limit is discussed.
We provide an analytical derivation of the confinement deconfinement phase transition to QCD in the pure gluon sector at finite temperature within the framework of S U(3) dual QCD formulation. The mechanism of color confinement has been…
This is the short review of Monte-Carlo studies of quark confinement in lattice QCD. After abelian projections both in the maximally abelian and Polyakov gauges, it is seen that the monopole part alone is responsible for confinement. A…
Two distinct phase transitions occur at different temperatures in QCD with adjoint fermions (aQCD): deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration. In this model, quarks do no explicitely break the center Z(3) symmetry and therefore the…
Chiral monopoles are hedgehoglike structures in local chiral condensates in QCD. These monopoles are (i) made of quark and gluon fields; (ii) explicitly gauge-invariant; and (iii) they carry quantized and conserved chromomagnetic charge. We…
Numerous aspects and mechanisms of color confinement in QCD are surveyed. After a gauge-invariant definition of order parameters, the phenomenon is formulated in the language of field correlators, to select a particular correlator…
We discuss the possibility of existence of colour superconducting state in real QCD vacuum with nonzero gluon condensate. We argue, that nonperturbative gluonic fields might play a crucial role in colour superconductivity scenario.
We demonstrate that the disorder parameter $<\mu>$ to detect dual superconductivity in the confining phase of QCD is the v.e.v. of a magnetically charged, Dirac like, gauge invariant operator $\mu$. We also show that the abelian projection…
We study color confinement properties of the multi-instanton system, which seems to carry an essence of the nonperturbative QCD vacuum. Here we assume that the multi-instanton system is characterized by the infrared suppression of…
We show the construction of the dual superconducting theory for the confinement mechanism from QCD in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge using the lattice QCD Monte Carlo simulation. We find that essence of infrared abelian dominance is…
We discuss recent results on color superconductivity in QCD at large chemical potential.
We discuss how confinement property of QCD results in the rational unitarization scheme and how unitarity saturation leads to appearance of a hadron liquid phase at very high temperatures.
Confinement is explained via field correlators, and the latter are calculated via gluelumps. Behavior of gluelump Green's function at small and large distances yields gluonic condensate and vacuum correlation length respectively and allows…
We study the surface tensions in the mixed phase of QCD in the dual Ginzburg-Landau theory, where the QCD-monopole condensate is the order parameter on the confinement. First, we consider the thermal mixed phase, and derive the analytical…
Progress is reviewed in the understanding of color confinement .
It is argued that a dual symmetry is needed to naturally explain experimental limits on color confinement. Since color is an exact symmetry the only possibility is that this symmetry be a dual symmetry, related to non trivial spatial…
