Vacuum condensates, effective gluon mass and color confinement in a new reformulation of QCD
K. -I. Kondo
We propose a new reformulation of Yang-Mills theory in which three- and four-gluon self-interactions are eliminated at the price of introducing a sufficient number of auxiliary fie…
Implications of Analyticity to Mass Gap, Color Confinement and Infrared Fixed Point in Yang--Mills theory
K. -I. Kondo
Analyticity of gluon and Faddeev--Popov ghost propagators and their form factors on the complex momentum-squared plane is exploited to continue analytically the ultraviolet asympto…
A Confining String Theory Derivable from Yang-Mills Theory due to a Novel Vacuum Condensate
K. -I. Kondo, T. Imai
We discuss within the weak-field approximation and the derivative expansion how the area law of the Wilson loop follows directly from the vacuum condensate of mass dimension 2, i.e…
Spontaneous breakdown of BRST supersymmetry due to ghost condensation in QCD
Kei-Ichi Kondo
We argue that the BRST and the anti-BRST super symmetries in the four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory can be spontaneously broken in a nonlinear partial gauge due to ghost-anti-ghost…
Dual superconductivity, monopole condensation and confining string in low-energy Yang-Mills theory. Part I
Kei-Ichi Kondo
We show that the QCD vacuum (without dynamical quarks) is a dual superconductor at least in the low-energy region in the sense that monopole condensation does really occur. In fact…
Non-Abelian Stokes theorem and quark confinement in QCD
Kei-Ichi Kondo
To understand the Abelian dominance and magnetic monopole dominance in low-energy QCD, we rewrite the non-Abelian Wilson loop into the form which is written in terms of its Abelian…
