Deconfinement in N=1 super Yang-Mills theory on R^3 x S^1 via dual-Coulomb gas and "affine" XY-model
Mohamed M. Anber, Scott Collier, Erich Poppitz +2
We study finite-temperature N=1 SU(2) super Yang-Mills theory, compactified on a spatial circle of size L with supersymmetric boundary conditions. In the semiclassical small-L regi…
QCD in magnetic field, Landau levels and double-life of unbroken center-symmetry
Mohamed M. Anber, Mithat Unsal
We study the thermal confinement/deconfinement and non-thermal quantum phase transitions or rapid cross-overs in QCD and QCD-like theories in external magnetic fields. At large mag…
The abelian confinement mechanism revisited: new aspects of the Georgi-Glashow model
Mohamed M. Anber
The confinement problem remains one of the most difficult problems in theoretical physics. An important step toward the solution of this problem is the Polyakov's work on abelian c…
Theta dependence of the deconfining phase transition in pure SU(N_c) Yang-Mills theories
Mohamed M. Anber
Recently, it has been conjectured that deconfining phase transition in SU(N_c) pure Yang-Mills theories is continuously connected to a quantum phase transition in softly broken N=1…
