We discuss a confining model for quark-antiquark system with a new color $SU_3$ gauge symmetry. New gauge transformations involve non-integrable phase factors and lead to the fourth-order gauge field equations and a linear potential. The…
I propose to reformulate the gauge field theory as the perturbative deformation of a novel topological quantum field theory. It is shown that this reformulation leads to quark confinement in QCD$_4$. Similarly, the fractional charge…

It is shown that the spin polarized condensate appears in quark matter at high baryon density and low temperature due to the tensor-type four-point interaction in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio-type model as a low energy effective theory of quantum…
We investigate the spectral function of light quarks in infinite quark matter using a simple, albeit self-consistent model. The interactions between the quarks are described by the SU(2) Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. Currently mean field…
Generalizing a covariant framework previously developed, it is shown that confinement insures that meson $\to q+\bar{q}$ decay amplitudes vanish when both quarks are on-shell. Regularization of singularities in a covariant linear potential…
