A Generalized Maximal Abelian Gauge in SU(3) Lattice Gauge Theory

William W. Tucker, John D. Stack

We introduce a generalized Maximum Abelian Gauge (MAG). We work with this new gauge on 12^4 lattices for beta=5.7,5.8 and 16^4 lattices for beta=5.9,6.0. We also introduce a form o…

Confinement in SU(3: Simple and Generalized Maximal Abelian Gauge

John D. Stack, William W. Tucker, Roy J. Wensley

The general problem of obtaining reliable results from gauge-fixing and projection is discussed. It is shown that the usual form of the maximal abelian gauge gives poor results for…

The Maximal Abelian Gauge in SU(3) Lattice Gauge Theory

William W. Tucker, John D. Stack

We gauge fix 600 SU(3) beta=6.0 configurations on a 16^4 lattice to a simple form of the maximal abelian gauge. We project the SU(3) valued links to the U(1)xU(1) subgroup, and ext…

The Maximal Abelian Gauge, Monopoles, and Vortices in SU(3) Lattice Gauge Theory

John D. Stack, William W. Tucker, Roy J. Wensley

We report on calculations of the heavy quark potential in SU(3) lattice gauge theory. Full SU(3) results are compared to three cases which involve gauge-fixing and projection. All…

Cooling, Monopoles, and Vortices in SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory

John D. Stack, William W. Tucker, Alistair Hart

We study monopoles and vortices in SU(2) lattice gauge theory on a 24**4 lattice at beta=2.50. We find a value of fundamental string tension from monopoles in the maximum Abelian g…

The Gribov Ambiguity for Maximal Abelian and Center Gauges in SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory

John D. Stack, William W. Tucker

We present results for the fundamental string tension in SU(2) lattice gauge theory after projection to maximal abelian and direct maximal center gauges. We generate 20 Gribov copi…
