It is usual to study confinement via quantum chromodynamics (QCD) alone. The deconfinement transition of the pure gauge theory (i.e. with static quarks) is then characterized by the breaking of center symmetry. Center vortices offer an…
We discuss how the inclusion of singular gauge fields in the partition function for QCD can lead to a domain-like picture for the QCD vacuum by virtue of specific conditions on quantum fluctuations at the singularities. With a simplified…
In a style of popular article, we discuss models of hadronic structure and their relation with models of the QCD vacuum and lattice simulations. Borrowing two main characters from G.Gamow, Mr.Thompson and Professor, we make a travel in the…
We investigate the phase structures of theories which differ from QCD only in the gauge group and can be simulated on the lattice at non-vanishing chemical potential $\mu$. These theories can thus serve as testing ground for functional…
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…
A characteristic signature of quark confinement is the concentration of the chromoelectric field between a static quark-antiquark pair in a flux tube. However, the structure of this flux tube, and hence of the confining force, has not been…
The Dirac theory implies the existence of an internal vector space, in addition to spin space. Using Dirac's coupling of variables in internal space to those in physical space, we construct a new configuration structure for particles in the…
We study quark confinement in a system of two parallel domain walls interpolating different color dielectric media. We use the phenomenological approach in which the confinement of quarks appears considering the QCD vacuum as a color…
There is little doubt that Quantumchromodynamics (QCD) is the theory which describes strong interaction physics. Lattice gauge simulations of QCD predict that in the $\mu,T$ plane there is a line where a transition from confined hadronic…
We present a picture of confinement based on representation of quarks as pointlike topological defects. The topological charge carried by quarks and confined in hadrons is explicitly constructed in terms of Yang - Mills variables. In 2+1…
A novel theory of hybrid quantum-classical systems is developed, utilizing the mathematical framework of constrained dynamical systems on the quantum-classical phase space. Both, the quantum and the classical descriptions of the respective…
Basic notions of Dirac theory of constrained systems have their analogs in differential geometry. Combination of the two approaches gives more clear understanding of both classical and quantum mechanics, when we deal with a model with…
A confining gauge theory violates the completeness of asymptotic states held as foundation points of the $S$-matrix. Spin-dependent experiments can yield results that appear to violate quantum mechanics. The point is illustrated by…
We present a new perspective on the nature of quark and gluon condensates in quantum chromodynamics. We suggest that the spatial support of QCD condensates is restricted to the interiors of hadrons, since these condensates arise due to the…
Exotic hadrons of a few GeV/c^2 mass, exhibiting a spectrum determined by the perturbative interaction of a non-minimal number of valence quarks, have long been predicted as signals of the underlying QCD structure. Models that include the…
We construct a self-consistent holographic QCD model which can realize two most important phenomena of QCD, i.e. chiral symmetry breaking and confinement. The model is formulated in the framework of graviton-dilaton-scalar system, where the…
In this paper, it is pointed out for the first time that the linear effective potential between quarks is intrinsically relating to the bag model while concerning the asymptotically-free nature of colours. Based on the relationship we…
We study the dynamics in phases with vector condensates of gluons (gluonic phases) in dense two-flavor quark matter. These phases yield an example of dynamics in which the Higgs mechanism is provided by condensates of gauge (or gauge plus…
The relationship between the Dirac and reduced phase space quantizations is investigated for spin models belonging to the class of Hamiltonian systems having no gauge conditions. It is traced out that the two quantization methods may give…
The confinement of quarks is one of the enduring mysteries of modern physics. There is a longstanding physics heuristic that confinement is a consequence of `unbroken center symmetry'. This article gives mathematical confirmation of this…
