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, 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…

Monopoles, Vortices and Confinement is SU(3) Lattice Gauge Theory

Roy Wensley, John Stack

We present results for the heavy quark potential computed in SU(3) from magnetic monopoles and from center vortices. The monopoles are identified after fixing SU(3) lattice configu…

Magnetic Monopoles as Agents of Chiral Symmetry Breaking in U(1) Lattice Gauge Theory

Tom Bielefeld, Simon Hands, John D. Stack +1

We present results suggesting that magnetic monopoles can account for chiral symmetry breaking in abelian gauge theory. Full U(1) configurations from a lattice simulation are facto…

Monopoles and the Chiral Phase Transition in Lattice Gauge Theory

Roy Wensley

In the quenched approximation we use the abelian and monopole fields from abelian projection in SU(2) lattice gauge theory to numerically compute the value of the chiral condensate…

Monopoles at Finite Volume and Temperature in SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory

John D. Stack, Roy J. Wensley, Steven D. Neiman

We resolve a discrepancy between the SU(2) spacial string tension at finite temperature, and the value obtained by monopoles in the maximum Abelian gauge. Previous work had incorre…
