Magnetic Monopoles, Center Vortices and Topology of Gauge Fields
arXiv:hep-lat/9908027 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(00)91730-4
Abstract
The topological properties of magnetic monopoles and center vortices arising, respectively, in Abelian and center gauges are studied in continuum Yang-Mills Theory. For this purpose the continuum analog of the maximum center gauge is constructed.
