Center projection of SU(2) lattice gauge theory allows to isolate magnetic vortices as confining configurations. The vortex density scales according to the renormalization group, implying that the vortices are physical objects rather than…

Topological lumps are known to be present in gluonic fields of SU(3) gluodynamics. Near the transition temperature they were classified either as constituents of nondissociated (anti)calorons, or as constituents of (anti)dyon pairs, or as…
We observe that on the currently available lattices the non-Abelian action associated with the P-vortices is ultraviolet divergent. On the other hand, the total area of the vortices scales in physical units. Since both the ultraviolet and…
We review briefly recent results of lattice simulations on 3d domains in the vacuum state of SU(2) gluodynamics. The defects are defined as unification of all the negative links in central projection under condition that the total number of…
