Percolation and Deconfinement in SU(2) Gauge Theory
arXiv:hep-lat/9908033 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(00)91703-1
Abstract
We show that deconfinement in SU(2) gauge theory can be described by the percolation of site-bond clusters of like-sign Polyakov loops. In particular, we find that in 2+1 dimensions the percolation variables coincide with those of the 2-dimensional Ising model.
