Solution of the Gribov problem from gauge invariance
Kurt Langfeld, Tom Heinzl, Anton Ilderton +2
A new approach to gauge fixed Yang-Mills theory is derived using the Polyakov-Susskind projection techniques to build gauge invariant states. In our approach, in contrast to the Fa…
The ice-limit of Coulomb gauge Yang-Mills theory
Thomas Heinzl, Anton Ilderton, Kurt Langfeld +2
In this paper we describe gauge invariant multi-quark states generalising the path integral framework developed by Parrinello, Jona-Lasinio and Zwanziger to amend the Faddeev-Popov…
Is the ground state of Yang-Mills theory Coulombic?
Thomas Heinzl, Anton Ilderton, Kurt Langfeld +3
We study trial states modelling the heavy quark-antiquark ground state in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. A state describing the flux tube between quarks as a thin string of glue is found…
Center vortices and the quark propagator in SU(2) gauge theory
Patrick O. Bowman, Kurt Langfeld, Derek B. Leinweber +4
We study the behavior of the AsqTad quark propagator in Landau gauge on quenched SU(2) gauge configurations under the removal of center vortices. In contrast to recent results in S…
Relation between chiral symmetry breaking and confinement in YM-theories
Franziska Synatschke, Andreas Wipf, Kurt Langfeld
Spectral sums of the Dirac-Wilson operator and their relation to the Polyakov loop are thoroughly investigated. The approach by Gattringer is generalized to mode sums which reconst…
