Connections between Thin,Thick and Projection Vortices in SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory
Richard W. Haymaker, Andrei Alexandru
We elucidate the connection between and the usual SU(2) configuration variables. By exploiting the freedom of choosing a particular SO(3) representative we find…
Simulations in SO(3) \times Z(2) lattice gauge theory
A. Alexandru, R. W. Haymaker
We explore simulations on periodic lattices in the Tomboulis formulation. We measure gauge invariant vortex counters for "thin", "thick" and "hybrid" vortex she…
Vortex configurations in SO(3) \times Z(2)
A. Alexandru, R. W. Haymaker
We study the configuration space of the Tomboulis formulation with periodic boundary conditions. The dynamical variables are constrained by the required coincid…
Electric and magnetic U(1) currents in lattice confinement studies
A. Hart, R. W. Haymaker, Y. Sasai
Making use of an Ehrenfest-Maxwell relation we show that in Abelian projected SU(2), in the maximal Abelian gauge, the dynamical electric charge density generated by the coset fiel…
Vacuum structure of pure gauge theories on the lattice
Richard W. Haymaker, Vandana Singh, Dana Browne +1
We present results from simulations on two aspects of quark confinement in the pure gauge sector. First is the calculation of the profile of the flux tube connecting a static $q \b…
