Gluon confinement and quantum censorship

Abstract

The dynamical Maxwell-cut, a degeneracy is shown to be a precursor of condensate in the phi4 and the sine-Gordon models. The difference of the way the Maxwell-cut is obtained is pointed out and quantum censorship, the generation of semiclassically looking phenomenon by loop-corrections is conjectured in the sine-Gordon model. It is argued that quantum censorship and gluon confinement exclude each other.
