By using the gauge-invariant but path-dependent, variables formalism, we consider a recently proposed topologically massive $U{\left( 1 \right)_{\cal W}} \times U{(1)_{\cal Y}}$ Chern-Simons-Higgs theory in $2+1$ dimensions. In particular,…
In the Abelian Higgs model electric (and magnetic) fields of external charges (and currents) are screened by the scalar field. In this contribution, complementing recent investigations of Ishihara and Ogawa, we present a detailed…
The physics of electric and magnetic screening in non-Abelian finite temperature field theory is closely related to the non-perturbative properties of the corresponding three-dimensional effective theories which are confining. I discuss…
Non-perturbative effects in the high-temperature phase of the electroweak theory are characterized by a magnetic screening length. Its size influences the range of validity of perturbation theory, and it also determines the critical Higgs…
In odd-dimensional spaces, gauge invariance permits a Chern-Simons mass term for the gauge fields in addition to the usual Maxwell-Yang-Mills kinetic energy term. We study the Casimir effect in such a (2+1)-dimensional Abelian theory. For…
We analyze the problem of screening in 1+1 dimensional gauge theories. Using QED2 as a warm-up for the non-abelian models we show the mechanism of the string breaking, in particular the vanishing overlap of the Wilson loops to the…
In quantum electrodynamics, static electric fields are screened at non-zero temperatures by charges in the plasma. The inverse screening length, or Debye mass, may be analyzed in perturbation theory and is of order $eT$ at relativistic…
Though screened at large distances, a point-like electric charge can still participate in a long-range electromagnetic interaction in the Higgs phase, namely that with the Aharonov-Bohm field produced by a localized magnetic flux. We show…
We investigate a classical system that consists of a U(1) gauge field and a complex Higgs scalar field with a potential that breaks the symmetry spontaneously. We obtain numerical solutions of the system in the presence of a smoothly…
The study of Yang-Mills theories in three dimensions is an insightful playground to grasp important features for the four-dimensional case. Additionally, in three dimensions, the Chern-Simons term can be introduced with a mass parameter of…
We discuss the effect of dynamical charged particles in U(1)^{N-1} Abelian effective theories of QCD. Screening and confinement at zero temperature are explained qualitatively. The effect of dynamically charged particle is expressed in…
We study the effect of a Chern-Simons (CS) term in the phase structure of two different Abelian gauge theories. For the compact Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory, we obtain that for values $g=n/2\pi$ of the CS coupling with $n=\pm 1,\pm 2$, the…
We derive exact relations for SU(2) lattice gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions. In terms of Abelian projection, these are the expectation values of Maxwell equations that define a new field strength operator and conserved, dynamic electric…
The radiative corrections to the decay processes of the neutral ($CP$-even) Higgs boson ($H$) into a longitudinal gauge boson pair, {\it i.e.}, $H \rightarrow Z_{L}Z_{L}$ and $H \rightarrow W_{L}^{+}W_{L}^{-}$ are analyzed in the two-Higgs…
Screening of the electric field of a test charge by monolayer and double-layer composite fermion systems is considered. It is shown that the electric field of the test charge is partly screened at distances much large then the magnetic…
This thesis is devoted to the study of the screening masses in hot non-Abelian theories. Section 1 contain a brief introduction to the topic. In section 2 a detailed overview of the screening phenomena and their applications is given. In…
The Abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory is constructed on the three-dimensional spacetime lattice. This proposal introduces both lattice and dual lattice, and the gauge field on the dual lattice is expressed in terms of the gauge field on the…
Screening mechanisms are a natural method for suppressing long-range forces in scalar-tensor theories as they link the local background density to their strength. Focusing on Brans-Dicke theories, those including a non-minimal coupling…
We discuss the calculation of electric and magnetic screening masses in SU(2) gauge theory. The temperature dependence of these masses obtained from the long-distance behaviour of spatial correlation functions has been analyzed for…
I describe results on screening masses in hot gauge theories. Wilsonian effective long distance theories called dimensionally reduced (DR) theories describe very well the longest screening length in pure gauge theories. In the presence of…
