Infrared Yang-Mills theory as a spin system. A lattice approach

Abstract

To verify the conjecture that Yang-Mills theory in the infrared limit is equivalent to a spin system whose excitations are knot solitons, a numerical algorithm based on the inverse Monte Carlo method is proposed. To investigate the stability of the effective spin field action, numerical studies of the renormalization group flow for the coupling constants are suggested. A universality of the effective spin field action is also discussed.
