Confinement and center vortices in Coulomb gauge: analytic and numerical results
arXiv:hep-lat/0408023 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2004.12.026
Abstract
We review the confinement scenario in Coulomb gauge. We show that when thin center vortex configurations are gauge transformed to Coulomb gauge, they lie on the common boundary of the fundamental modular region and the Gribov region. This unifies elements of the Gribov confinement scenario in Coulomb gauge and the center-vortex confinement scenario. We report on recent numerical studies which support both of these scenarios.
