We show that a generalized Polyakov mechanism can lead to confinement at weak coupling in $3+1$ dimensions when the theory is placed in a non-trivial, spatially varying magnetic field background. Depending on the magnitude of the field and…

Two distinct phase transitions occur at different temperatures in QCD with adjoint fermions (aQCD): deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration. In this model, quarks do no explicitely break the center Z(3) symmetry and therefore the…

The effective potential of the order parameter for confinement is calculated within the Hamiltonian approach to Yang--Mills theory. Compactifying one spatial dimension and using a background gauge fixing this potential is obtained by…

We study the quark confinement problem in 2+1 dimensional pure Yang-Mills theory using euclidean instanton methods. The instantons are regularized and dressed Wu-Yang monopoles. The dressing of a monopole is due to the mean field of the…

We re-examine by numerical simulation the phase structure of the (3+1)-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory (LGT) with gauge fields coupled to Higgs fields at finite temperature. Concretely, we explore two different order parameters which…

The monopole order parameter of QCD is computed in terms of gauge invariant field strength correlators. Both quantities are partially known from numerical simulations on the lattice. A new insight results on the structure of the confining…

We explore the confinement-deconfinement phase transition (PT) of the first order (FO) arising in $SU(N)$ pure Yang-Mills theory, based on Polyakov loop models (PLMs), in light of the induced gravitational wave (GW) spectra. We demonstrate…

We study numerically the monopole creation operator proposed recently by Frohlich and Marchetti. The operator is defined with the help of a three dimensional model which generates random Mandelstam strings. These strings imitate the…

We show that the deconfinement phase transition in the pure Yang-Mills theory can be characterized by the change of behaviour the spatial 't Hooft loop, V(C). In the confining phase V has a perimeter law behaviour V(C)= exp{-mP(C)}, while…

The critical behavior of non-order parameter fields is discussed. We show that relevant features of the deconfining phase transition can be determined by monitoring universal properties induced by the order parameter on the physical…

We propose a new version of SU(N) Yang-Mills theory reformulated in terms of new field variables which are obtained by a nonlinear change of variables from the original Yang-Mills gauge field. The reformulated Yang-Mills theory enables us…

We use matrix models to characterize deconfinement at a nonzero temperature T for an SU(2) gauge theory in three spacetime dimensions. At one loop order, the potential for a constant vector potential A0 is ~T^3 times a trilogarithm function…

We reformulate the dual gauge model of the long-distance Yang-Mills theory in terms of the two-point Wightman functions formalism. In the flux-tube scheme of Abelian dominance and monopole condensation, the analytic expressions of both…

We study the pure SU(3) gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions on the lattice using 't Hooft's twisted boundary conditions to force non-vanishing center flux through the finite volume. In this way we measure the free energy of spacelike center…

The theory of second order phase transitions is one of the foundations of modern statistical mechanics and condensed matter theory. A central concept is the observable `order parameter', whose non-zero average value characterizes one or…

We construct the creation operator of a vortex using the methods developed for monopoles. The vacuum expectation value of this operator is interpreted as a disorder parameter describing vortex condensation and is studied numerically on a…

Using the recently proposed non-linear gauge condition, we show the area law behavior of the Wilson loop and the linear dependence of the instantaneous gluon propagator. The field configurations responsible for confinement are those in the…

We study the bosonic matrix model obtained as the high-temperature limit of two-dimensional maximally supersymmetric SU($N$) Yang-Mills theory. So far, no consensus about the order of the deconfinement transition in this theory has been…

The thesis is devoted to the problem of colour confinement in the non-Abelian Yang-Mills theory (gluon part of Quantum Chromodynamics). A generalisation of the 3-dimensional Fock-Schwinger gauge is proposed where the Gauss law constraint is…

We propose a gauge-independent mechanism for the area-law behavior of Wilson loop expectation values in terms of worldsheets spanning Wilson loops interacting with the spin foams that contribute to the vacuum partition function. The method…
