Semiclassical analysis of the bifundamental QCD on with 't Hooft flux
Yui Hayashi, Yuya Tanizaki, Hiromasa Watanabe
We study the phase structure of bifundamental quantum chromodynamics (QCD(BF)), which is the -dimensional gauge theory coupled with the bifundamental fermio…

Higgs-confinement continuity and matching of Aharonov-Bohm phases
Yui Hayashi
Some gauge theories with a spontaneously broken symmetry exhibit fractional Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phases around vortices in the Higgs regime. We discuss continuity between conf…

Complex poles of Landau-gauge QCD propagators and general properties
Yui Hayashi, Kei-Ichi Kondo
We study analytic structures of the gluon, quark, and ghost propagators in the Landau-gauge QCD and general properties from the existence of unusual singularities. First, we invest…
