We discuss in some detail certain gaps and open problems in the recent paper by E. T. Tomboulis, which claims to give a rigorous proof of quark confinement in 4D lattice Yang-Mills theory for all values of the bare coupling. We also discuss…

We point out missing links in the recent paper by Tomboulis in which he claims a rigorous proof of quark confinement in 4D lattice gauge theory. We also discuss if it is possible to correct his proof.

Some basic features of confinement are reviewed, in particular the symmetry patterns of the dual dynamics. Open problems and possible directions of progress are discussed.

Some critical remarks are presented, concerning the abelian projection theory of quark confinement.

We summarize recent progress in describing the confinement-deconfinement transition from a novel perturbative approach.

We present a positive solution to the so-called Bernoulli Conjecture concerning the characterization of sample boundedness of Bernoulli processes. We also discuss some applications and related open problems.

We justify the Thomas--Fermi approximation for the elliptic problem with the repulsive nonlinear confinement used in the recent physical literature. The method is based on the resolvent estimates and the fixed-point iterations.

We study the famous mathematical puzzle of prisoners and hats. We introduce a framework in which various variants of the problem can be formalized. We examine three particular versions of the problem (each one in fact a class of problems)…

I extend upon the paper by Batalin and Marnelius, in which they show how to construct and quantize a gauge theory from a Hamiltonian system with second class constraints. Among the avenues explored, their technique is analyzed in relation…

We show that formulating the quantum time of arrival problem in a segment of the real line suggests rephrasing the quantum time of arrival problem to finding states that evolve to unitarily collapse at a given point at a definite time. For…

This paper is based on the observation that, during Covid-19 epidemic, the choice of which individuals should be tested has an important impact on the effectiveness of selective confinement measures. This decision problem is closely related…

In this talk, I report on a work done in collaboration with R. Markazi and E.H. Saidi [1].

I comment on possible relations of Gribov's ideas on mechanism of confinement with some phenomena in QCD and in supersymmetric gauge theories.

The experimental and theoretical evidence relating spin dependence and long range confinement is reviewed. One of the simplest confinement ideas, the dynamic electric flux tube picture of Buchm\"uller, can be exploited to yield a complete…

Confinement has been introduced into the quark gap equation, as proposed by Cornwall, as a possible solution to the problem of chiral symmetry breaking in QCD with dynamically massive gluons. We argue that the same mechanism can be applied…

The status of our understanding of colour confinement is reviewed.

Methods are described for the solution of linear inference problems subject to deterministic constraints. The approach builds on work by Backus (1970a,b,c) and Parker (1977), but a range useful advances are suggested to address both…

A few years ago, 't Hooft suggested a way to discuss confinement in a perturbative fashion. The original idea was put forward in the Coulomb gauge at tree level. In recent years, the concept of a nonperturbative short distance linear…

We investigate some versions of the famous 100 prisoner problem for the infinite case, where there are infinitely many prisoners and infinitely many boxes with labels. In this case, many questions can be asked about the admissible steps of…

Adapting methods introduced by Steven Smale, we describe good strategies for a symmetric version of the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma with n players.
