We conjecture that a T-dual form of pure QCD describes dynamics of point-like monopoles. T-duality transforms the QCD Lagrangian into a matrix quantum mechanics of zerobranes which we identify with monopoles. At generic points of the…

We find chiral non-Abelian vortices having windings only in one of the diquark condensations of left-handed and right-handed quarks in the color-flavor locked phase of dense QCD. They are the minimum vortices carrying half color magnetic…

We present results of $SU(3)$ Monte-Carlo studies of a new color confinement scheme due to Abelian-like monopoles of the Dirac type without any gauge-fixing. We get (1) perfect Abelian dominance with respect to the static potentials on…

The study of confinement in quantum spin chains has seen a large surge of interest in recent years. It is not only important for understanding a range of effective one-dimensional condensed matter realizations, but also shares some of the…

Flavored mesons containing quarks of unequal masses are studied. The appropriate tool is the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, but its inherent complexity leads to series of difficulties mostly related to the central role played in it by the…

Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and its connection with the generation of hadron masses has historically been viewed as a vacuum phenomenon. We argue that confinement makes such a position untenable. If quark-hadron duality is a reality…

In this work, we analyze a class of Yang-Mills models containing adjoint Higgs fields, with SU(N) symmetry spontaneously broken down to Z(N), showing they contain center vortices, Y-junctions formed by them, and junctions where different…

In this lecture I will explain the established pictures of the QCD vacuum and, in particular, the underlying confinement mechanism. These are: the magnetic monopole condensation (dual Mei\ss ner effect), the center vortex picture and the…

Much about the confinement and dynamical symmetry breaking in QCD might be learned from models with supersymmetry. In particular, models based on N=2 supersymmetric theories with gauge groups SU(N), SO(N) and $USp(2 N)$ and with various…

We consider the possibility that the quark condensate formed by QCD confinement generates Majorana neutrino masses m_\nu via dimension seven operators. No degrees of freedom beyond the Standard Model are necessary, below the electroweak…

Dynamics of many supersymmetric monopoles are studied in the low energy approximation. A conjecture for the exact moduli space metric is given for all collections of fundamental monopoles of distinct type, and various partial confirmations…

We argue that the QCD matter not far above a critical confinement-deconfinement baryon density and low temperatures can develop spontaneously the condensates of spin-one quark Cooper pairs. Depending upon their color these condensates…

Color symmetry is spontaneously broken in quark matter at high density as a consequence of di-quark condensations with exhibiting color superconductivity. Non-Abelian vortices or color magnetic flux tubes stably exist in the color-flavor…

This thesis is devoted to studying strong coupling phenomena (and confinement in particular) in supersymmetric gauge theories. The central object of investigation is the non-Abelian string that is responsible for the…

We study the quasiparticle excitation and quench dynamics of the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model with power-law ($1/r^{\alpha}$) interactions. We find that long-range interactions give rise to a confining potential, which…

We study aspects of confinement in the M theory fivebrane version of QCD (MQCD). We show heavy quarks are confined in hadrons (which take the form of membrane-fivebrane bound states) for N=1 and softly broken N=2 SU(Nc) MQCD. We explore and…

Based on the dual-superconductor picture, we study the confinement physics in QCD in terms of the monopole in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge using the SU(2) lattice QCD. In the MA gauge, the off-diagonal gluon component is forced to be…

New types of confinement phase emerge as singular SCFT's appearing as infrared-fixed-points of N=2 supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) are perturbed by an N=1 adjoint mass term. Based on a recent remarkable work on infrared-fixed-point SCFT of…

We study theoretical bases of the dual Higgs theory for confinement physics in QCD in terms of monopoles and the gluon configuration in the maximally abelian (MA) gauge. Abelian dominance for the confinement force can be analytically proved…

An effective monopole action for various extended monopoles is derived from vacuum configurations after abelian projection in the maximally abelian gauge in $SU(2)$ QCD. The action appears to be independent of the lattice volume. Moreover…
