Panel discussion: What {\it don't} we know about confinement?
R. Alkofer, D. Diakonov, J. Pawlowski +4
The participants in this discussion session of the QCHS 9 meeting were each asked the following question: "What would be the most useful piece of information that you could obtain,…
Vortex induced confinement and the IR properties of Green functions
K. Langfeld, J. C. R. Bloch, A. Cucchieri +3
Simulations of SU(2) lattice gauge theory are used to establish a relation between the IR properties of Green functions and confinement. Using Landau gauge where the gauge configur…
Topology of Center Vortices
H. Reinhardt
In this talk I study the topology of mathematically idealised center vortices, defined in a gauge invariant way as closed (infinitely thin) flux surfaces (in D=4 dimensions) which…
Quark zero modes in intersecting center vortex gauge fields
H. Reinhardt, O. Schroeder, T. Tok +1
The zero modes of the Dirac operator in the background of center vortex gauge field configurations in and are examined. If the net flux in D=2 is larger than 1 we obt…
Topology of Center Vortices
H. Reinhardt
The topology of center vortices is studied. For this purpose it is sufficient to consider mathematically idealised vortices, defined in a gauge invariant way as closed (infinitely…
Magnetic Monopoles and Topology of Yang-Mills Theory in Polyakov Gauge
M. Quandt, H. Reinhardt, A. Schafke
We express the Pontryagin index in Polyakov gauge completely in terms of magnetically charged gauge fixing defects, namely magnetic monopoles, lines, and domain walls. Open lines a…
