Vortices and confinement
T. G. Kovács, E. T. Tomboulis
We review recent developments in the vortex picture of confinement. We discuss numerical simulations demonstrating that the entire asymptotic string tension is due to vortex-induce…

Bound on the string tension by the excitation probability for a vortex
T. G. Kovács, E. T. Tomboulis
A lower bound on the string tension for large beta in SU(2) LGT is derived. The derivation is from first principles and bounds the string tension from below by the expectation for…

On P-vortices and the Gribov problem
Tamas G. Kovacs, E. T. Tomboulis
We study the possible connection between centre vortices and P-vortices in SU(2) gauge theory. After briefly recalling some essential properties of centre vortices we point out tha…
