The global $SU(3)$ color symmetry and its physical consequences are discussed. The N\"{o}ther current is actually governed by the conserved matter current of color charges if the color field generated by this charge is properly polarized.…
We investigate properties of the color space of $SU(N_c)$ gauge theories in the limit of small number of colors $(N_c \to 0)$ and large number of flavors. More generally, we introduce a rescaling of $\alpha_s$ and $n_f$ which assigns a…
We study in this Letter the origin of the confinement in QCD by analyzing the colour charge of physics states. We derive the colour charge operator in QCD and compare it with the electromagnetic charge operator in QED. It shows that the two…
The nature of confinement is connected with color charge. Unfortunately, the color charge densities in QCD, the Noether charge densities associated with the global color invariance, are not invariant under local color rotations. This…
We consider gauge theories with scalar matter with and without supersymmetry at nonzero chemical potential. It is argued that a chemical potential plays a role similar to the FI term. We analyze theory at weak coupling regime at large…
First, we present a simple confining abelian pure gauge theory. Classically, its kinetic term is not positive definite, and it contains a simple UV regularized F^4 interaction. This provoques the formation of a condensate ~ F^2 such that,…
We show that the color $N$ dependent area law falloffs of the double-winding Wilson loop averages for the $SU(N)$ lattice gauge theory obtained in the preceding works are reproduced from the corresponding lattice Abelian gauge theory with…
QCD is the fundamental theory to describe the strong interaction, where quarks and gluons have the color degrees of freedom. However, a single quark or gluon can not be separated out and all observable particles are color singlet states.…
This article presents a comprehensive and rigorously formulated algebraic framework for investigating 1+1-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories within the paradigm of Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT), building upon foundational results…
Constant temporal backgrounds have become a convenient tool for the discussion of continuum non-abelian gauge theories at finite temperature, as they provide a grasp on the confinement/deconfinement transition. It has been pointed that such…
The gauge model of nonrelativistic particles on a line interacting with nonstandard gravitational fields [5] is supplemented by the addition of a (non)-Abelian gauge interaction. Solving for the gauge fields we obtain equations, in closed…
Deep insights into the possible infrared dynamics of strongly-coupled nonAbelian gauge theories such as QCD come from the analyses of ${\cal N}=1$ or ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. Central in the whole discussion will be the…
We study dual superconductivity of the ground state of SU(2) gauge theory, in connection with confinement. We do that measuring on the lattice a disorder parameter describing condensation of monopoles. Confinement appears as a transition to…
We report on recent progress in understanding confinement of colour in $QCD$ as dual superconductivity of the vacuum. A gauge invariant version of the creation operator of monopoles is constructed whose vacuum expectation value is the order…
Quark confinement is proposed to be a dual Meissner effect of nonAbelian kind. Important hints come from physics of strongly-coupled infrared-fixed-point theories in N=2 supersymmetric QCD, which turn into confining vacua under a small…
Some variant of discrete quantum theory of gravity having "naive" continuum limit is constructed. It is shown that in a highly compressed state of universe a sort of "high-temperature expansion" is valid and, thus, the confinement of…
Motivated by colouring minimal Cayley graphs, in 1978, Babai conjectured that no-lonely-colour graphs have bounded chromatic number. We disprove this in a strong sense by constructing graphs of arbitrarily large girth and chromatic number…
Features of screening and confinement are studied for a non-Abelian gauge theory with a mixture of pseudoscalar and scalar coupling, in the case where a constant chromo-electric, or chromo-magnetic, strength expectation value is present.…
In this paper we improve the existing order parameter for monopole condensation in gauge theory vacuum, making it gauge-invariant from scratch and free of the spurious infrared problems which plagued the old one. Computing the new parameter…
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,…
