Center-vortex dominance after dimensional reduction of SU(2) lattice gauge theory

Abstract
The high-temperature phase of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is addressed by means of dimensional reduction with a special emphasis on the properties of center vortices. For this purpose, the vortex vacuum which arises from center projection is studied in pure 3-dimensional Yang-Mills theory as well as in the 3-dimensional adjoint Higgs model which describes the high temperature phase of the 4-dimensional SU(2) gauge theory. We find center-dominance within the numerical accuracy of 10%.
