String representation of the $[U(1)]^{N-1}$ gauge-invariant dual Abelian-Higgs-type theory, which is relevant to the SU(N)-QCD with the $\Theta$-term and provides confinement of quarks, is derived. The N-dependence of the Higgs vacuum…
In this talk, we discuss several topics related to the Abelian-projected SU(3)-QCD. First of them is the Aharonov-Bohm effect emerging during the extension of this theory by the introduction of the $\Theta$-term. Another topic is devoted to…
We derive the string representation of the Abelian Higgs theory in which dyons are condensed. It occurs that in such representation the topological interaction exists in the expectation value of the Wilson loop. Due to this interaction the…
Starting from the Abelian Higgs field theory, we construct the theory of quantum Abrikosov--Nielsen--Olesen strings. It is shown that in four space -- time dimensions in the limit of infinitely thin strings, the conformal anomaly is absent,…
We study a field--theoretical analogue of the Aharonov--Bohm effect in the Abelian Higgs Model: the corresponding topological interaction is proportional to the linking number of the Abrikosov--Nielsen--Olesen string world sheets and the…
The string representation of the Abelian projected SU(3)-gluodynamics partition function is derived by using the path-integral duality transformation. On this basis, we also derive analogous representations for the generating functionals of…
The generalization of 4D confining string theory to the SU(3)-inspired case is derived. It describes string representation of the Wilson loop in the SU(3)-analogue of compact QED extended by the $\theta$-term. It is shown that although the…
The partition function of the $4D$ lattice Abelian Higgs theory is represented as the sum over world sheets of Nielsen--Olesen strings. The creation and annihilation operators of the strings are constructed. The topological long--range…
We construct contact interactions for bosonic and spinning strings. In the tensionless limit of the spinning string this reproduces the super-Wilson loop that couples spinor matter to Abelian gauge theory. Adding boundary terms that…
We investigate numerically the properties of the Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen strings in 4D abelian Higgs model. The fractal dimension D_f of the vortex strings was found to be large in the Coulomb phase and it is close to 2 in the Higgs phase.…
We develop an operator formalism for investigating the properties of nonabelian cosmic strings (and vortices) in quantum field theory. Operators are constructed that introduce classical string sources and that create dynamical string loops.…
We construct a classical action for a system of $N$ point-like sources which carry SU(2) non-Abelian charges coupled to non-Abelian Chern-Simons gauge fields, and develop a quantum mechanics for them. Adopting the coherent state…
A dual Ginzburg-Landau model corresponding to SU(3) gluodynamics in abelian projection is studied. A string theory describing QCD string dynamics is obtained in this model. The interaction of static quarks in mesons and baryons is…
It is observed that strings in AdS_5 x S^5 and membranes in AdS_7 x S^4 exhibit long range phase interactions. Two well separated membranes dragged around one another in AdS acquire phases of 2\pi/N. The same phases are acquired by a well…
Representations of the Abelian-projected SU(2)- and SU(3)-gluodynamics in terms of the magnetic monopole currents are derived. Besides the quadratic part, the obtained effective actions contain interactions of these currents with the…
We study a field--theoretical analogue of the Aharonov--Bohm effect in the 3D Abelian Higgs Model: the corresponding topological interaction is proportional to the linking number of the vortex and the particle world trajectories. We show…
We discuss the Aharonov--Bohm effect in three and four dimensional non--compact lattice Abelian Higgs model. We show analytically that this effect leads to the long--range Coulomb interaction of the charged particles, which is confining in…
Making use of the duality transformation, we construct string representation for the partition function of the London limit of Abelian Higgs Model with an additional axionic term. In the lowest order of perturbation theory, this term leads…
Understanding flux string dynamics can provide insight into quark confinement and hadronization. First-principles quantum and numerical simulations have mostly focused on toy-model Abelian lattice gauge theories (LGTs). With the advent of…
We revisit the problem of a charged particle scattering off of an Aharonov-Bohm cosmic string. A classic computation gave an infinite total scattering cross section, leading to a Callan-Rubakov-like enhancement which can have important…
