Estimation of the Lin-Yang bound of the least static energy of the Faddeev model
Minoru Hirayama, Hitoshi Yamakoshi, Jun Yamashita
Lin and Yang's upper bound E_Q <= cQ^(3/4) of the least static energy E_Q of the Faddeev model in a sector with a fixed Hopf index Q is investigated. By constructing an explicit tr…

Consistency Conditions of the Faddeev-Niemi-Periwal Ansatz for the SU(N) Gauge Field
M. Hirayama, M. Kanno, M. Ueno +1
The consistency condition of the Faddeev-Niemi ansatz for the gauge-fixed massless SU(2) gauge field is discussed. The generality of the ansatz is demonstrated by obtaining a suffi…

Non-Abelian Stokes Theorem for Loop Variables Associated with Nontrivial Loops
M. Hirayama, M. Kanno, M. Ueno +1
The non-Abelian Stokes theorem for loop variables associated with nontrivial loops (knots and links) is derived. It is shown that a loop variable is in general different from unity…
