We present results on heavy quark free energies in 2-flavour QCD. The temperature dependence of the interaction between static quark anti-quark pairs will be analyzed in terms of temperature dependent screening radii, which give a first…
In earlier papers we established quark confinement analytically in anisotropic $(2+1)$-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with two gauge coupling constants. Here we point out a few features of the confining phase. These are: 1) the string…
We give an analytic demonstration that the 3+1 dimensional large N SU(N) pure Yang-Mills theory, compactified on a small 3-sphere so that the coupling constant at the compactification scale is very small, has a first order deconfinement…
We discuss the effective action for Polyakov-Wilson loops winding around compact Euclidean time, which serve as order parameters for the finite temperature deconfinement transition in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills gauge theory. We then apply our…
It is noted that a given pairing of the phase factor and gauge transformation to retain gauge symmetry is not unique. In their seminal paper, when Yang and Mills (YM) discuss the phase factor - gauge transformation relationship, they cite…
The theory of deconfined quantum critical points describes phase transitions at temperature T = 0 outside the standard paradigm, predicting continuous transformations between certain ordered states where conventional theory requires…
This study explores confinement-deconfinement transition properties of SU($3$) Yang--Mills theory under weak accelerations at finite temperatures, using first-principles lattice simulations. The system is formulated in the Rindler…
A classical solution to the Yang-Mills theory is given a new semiclassical interpretation. The boundary value problem on a complex time contour which arises from the semiclassical approximation to multiparticle scattering amplitudes is…
We construct simple qubit-regularized Hamiltonian lattice gauge theories formulated in the monomer--dimer--tensor-network (MDTN) basis that are free of sign problems in the pure gauge sector. These models naturally realize both confined and…
We present numerical results obtained in a finite-temperature study of the Sp(4) Yang-Mills theory on the lattice. We study its first-order confinement/deconfinement phase transition, by reconstructing the density of states via the…
The N=2* theory (mass deformation of N=4 Super-Yang-Mills) undergoes an infinite number of quantum phase transitions in the large-N limit. The phase structure and critical behavior can be analyzed with the help of supersymmetric…
We present an exploratory study to determine the confinement-deconfinement transition temperature at finite $\theta$, $T_c(\theta)$, for the 4d \SU(2) pure Yang-Mills theory. Lattice numerical simulations are performed on three spatial…
We study the Josephson-like interlayer tunneling signature of the strongly correlated $\nu_T = 1$ quantum Hall phase in bilayer two-dimensional electron systems as a function of the layer separation, temperature and interlayer charge…
We revisit the two-dimensional quantum Ising model by computing renormalization group flows close to its quantum critical point. The low but finite temperature regime in the vicinity of the quantum critical point is squashed between two…
We study the behaviour of the flux tube in the reconfined phase of the trace deformed $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ Yang-Mills theory in (2 + 1) dimensions. In this phase the Polyakov loop has a vanishing expectation value (and center symmetry is…
Deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration are explored in a confining, renormalisable, Dyson-Schwinger equation model of two-flavour QCD. An order parameter for deconfinement is introduced and used to establish that, in the chiral…
By making use of the background field method, we derive a novel reformulation of the Yang-Mills theory which was proposed recently by the author to derive quark confinement in QCD. This reformulation identifies the Yang-Mills theory with a…
We study the three dimensional fundamental-adjoint $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory at finite temperature by Monte Carlo simulations. We find that the finite temperature deconfinement phase transition line joins the first order bulk phase…
We analyse dependence of the partition function on the boundary condition for the longitudinal component of the electric field strength in gauge field theories. In a physical gauge the Gauss law constraint may be resolved explicitly…
The chiral phase transition at high temperature is investigated using the effect ive potential in the framework of the QCD-like gauge theory with a variational a pproach. We have a second order phase transition at $T_c=136$MeV. We also…
