We determine the large-distance behaviour of the static dipole-dipole potential for a wide class of gauge theories on nonperturbative grounds, exploiting only general properties of the theory. In the case of QCD, we recover the known…

In the last years it turned out that instantons and monopoles have a certain local correlation in four-dimensional QCD. It was demonstrated by several groups independently and by different methods that at the locations of instantons also…

We present a gauge and Lorentz invariant effective field theory model for the interaction of a charged scalar matter field with a magnetic monopole source, described by an external magnetic current. The quantum fluctuations of the monopole…

The condensation of monopoles (dual superconductivity) of QCD vacuum is reviewed. Direct evidence is produced that the system, in the confined phase, is a dual superconductor.

We present results for lattice QCD in the limit of infinite gauge coupling, obtained from a worm-type Monte Carlo algorithm on a discrete spatial lattice but with continuous Euclidean time. This is obtained by sending both the anisotropy…

Correlations of the topological charge Q, the electric current J^e and the magnetic current J^m in SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the Maximal Abelian projection are investigated. It occurs that the correlator <<QJ^e J^m>> is nonzero for a…

We propose a new class of regular stationary axially symmetric solutions in a pure QCD which correspond to monopole-antimonopole pairs at macroscopic scale. The solutions represent vacuum field configurations which are locally stable…

We probe for operators occurring in the APQCD(``abelian-projected QCD'') action by evaluating abelian-projected $1$-plaquette spectral densities in pure gauge $SU(3)$ fixed to maximal abelian gauge. Couplings $B_{APQCD}(q,L)$ are extracted…

We study various representations of the infrared effective theory of SU(2) gluodynamics starting from the monopole action derived recently. We determine the coupling constants in the abelian-Higgs model directly from lattice QCD and…

Magnetic monopole solutions naturally arise in the context of spontaneously broken gauge theories. When the unbroken symmetry includes a non-Abelian subgroup, investigation of the low-energy monopole dynamics by means of the moduli space…

We construct a mathematically well--defined framework for the kinematics of Hamiltonian QCD on an infinite lattice in $\R^3$, and it is done in a C*-algebraic context. This is based on the finite lattice model for Hamiltonian QCD developed…

We study the critical properties of the monopole-percolation transition in U(1) lattice gauge theory coupled to scalars at infinite ($\beta=0$) gauge coupling. We find strong scaling corrections in the critical exponents that must be…

Performing highly precise Monte-Carlo simulations of SU(2) gluodynamics, we observe for the first time Abelian dominance in the confining part of the static potential in local unitary gauges such as the F12 gauge. We also study the…

Vacuum characteristics quantifying dynamical tendency toward self-duality in gauge theories could be used to judge the relevance of classical solutions or the viability of classically motivated vacuum models. Here we decompose the field…

Monopole Percolation was first introduced in the study of the non-compact lattice QED in both, the pure case and coupled to Higgs fields. Monopole percolation has been also observed coupled to the monopole condensation in the study of the…

We found a quantum perfect lattice action in the 4-dimensional monopole current theory which is known as an effective theory in the infrared region of QCD. The perfect monopole action is transformed exactly into a lattice action of a string…

We give an outline of a recent proof that the low-energy effective gauge theory exhibiting quark confinement due to magnetic monopole condensation can be derived from QCD without any specific assumption. We emphasize that the low-energy…

We show the dominance of the restriction map from a moduli space of stable sheaves on the projective plane to the Coble quartic. With the dominance and the interpretation of a stable sheaf on the plane in terms of the hyperplane…

We study the Abelian projection of quark confinement in SU(3) quenched lattice QCD, in terms of the dual superconductor picture. In the maximal Abelian gauge, we perform the Cartan decomposition of the non-Abelian gauge field on a $32^4$…

We investigate the dual superconductor hypothesis in finite-temperature SU(2) lattice gluodynamics in the Spatial Maximal Abelian gauge. This gauge is more physical than the ordinary Maximal Abelian gauge due to absence of non-localities in…
