I report on recent progress in the study of mass generation in non-abelian gauge theories, and concentrate on the origin of constituent masses in QCD. I argue that a consistent formalism has been developed to describe chiral symmetry…
Any description of gluons requires a well-defined gauge. This is complicated non-perturbatively by Gribov copies. A possible method-independent gauge definition to resolve this problem is presented and afterwards used to study the…
The gap equation for fermions in a version of thermal QED in three dimensions is studied numerically in the Schwinger-Dyson formalism. The interest in this theory has been recently revived since it has been proposed as a model of…
We study a stochastic version of the one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation (DNSE), which is derived from first principles, and thus possesses all the properties required by statistical mechanics, such as detailed…
The Schwinger model is used to study the artifacts of quenching in a controlled way. The model is solved on a finite-temperature cylinder of circumference $\beta=1/T$ with bag-inspired local boundary conditions at the two ends $x^1=0$ and…
In principle, observables as for example the sphaleron rate or the tunneling rate in a first-order phase transition are gauge-independent. However, in practice a gauge dependence is introduced in explicit perturbative calculations due to…
By employing some modification to the widely used two-flavor Polyakov-loop extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model, we discuss the Wigner solution of the quark gap equation at finite temperature and zero quark chemical potential beyond the…
The non-perturbative Schwinger-Dyson equation is used to show that chiral symmetry is dynamically broken in QED at weak gauge couplings when an external uniform magnetic field is present. A complete analysis of this phenomenon may shed…
Counterparts of the Dyson-Schwinger equations for scalar QED in an external electromagnetic field are derived. Exact structure and diagrammatic interpretation of the corresponding mass and polarization operators are obtained. It is shown…
The two-dimensional self-dual Chern--Simons equations are equivalent to the conditions for static, zero-energy solutions of the $(2+1)$-dimensional gauged nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with Chern--Simons matter-gauge dynamics. In this…
The massive Schwinger and the massive sine-Gordon models are proved to be equivalent at finite temperature, using the path-integral framework. The well known relations among the parameters of these models to establish the duality at $T=0$,…
We study the finite-temperature phase transition of the generalized Gross-Neveu model with continous chiral symmetry in $2 < d \leq 4$ euclidean dimensions. The critical exponents are computed to the leading order in the $1/N$ expansion at…
We study the relation between QCD-monopole condensation and dynamical chiral-symmetry breaking in the dual Ginzburg-Landau Theory, which realizes the color confinement due to the dual Meissner effect. Solving the Schwinger-Dyson equation at…
We investigate the chiral phase transition at finite temperatures and zero chemical potential with Dyson-Schwinger equations. Our truncation for the quark-gluon interaction includes mesonic degrees of freedom, which allows us to study the…
Sklyanin's method of separation of variables is employed in a calculation of finite temperature expectation values. An essential element of the approach is Baxter's $Q$-function. We propose its explicit form corresponding to the ground…
We show that in pure gauge QCD (or any pure non-Abelian gauge theory) the condition for the existence of a global minimum of energy with a gluon (gauge boson) mass scale also implies the existence of a fixed point of the $\beta$ function.…
We review an explicit approach to obtaining numerical solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation that is conceptionally straightforward and capable of significant accuracy and efficiency. The method and its efficacy are illustrated with…
Two-dimensional QED with $N$ flavor fermions is solved at zero and finite temperature with arbitrary fermion masses to explore QCD physics such as chiral condensate and string tension. The problem is reduced to solving a Schr\"odinger…
Using the simplest but fundamental example, the problem of the infinite potential well, this paper makes an ideological attempt (supported by rigorous mathematical proofs) to approach the issue of…
We report preliminary results on the finite temperature behavior of SU(4) gauge theory with dynamical quarks in both the fundamental and two-index antisymmetric representations. This system is a candidate to present scale separation…
