Analytical approach to the D3-brane gravity dual for 3d Yang-Mills theory
Hilmar Forkel
The complexity of "top-down" string-dual candidates for strongly-coupled Yang-Mills theories and in particular for QCD almost always prohibits their exact analytical or even compre…
Exploring gauge-invariant vacuum wave functionals for Yang-Mills theory
Hilmar Forkel
We study gauge-invariant approximations to the Yang-Mills vacuum wave functional in which asymptotic freedom and a detailed description of the infrared dynamics are encoded through…
Gauge-invariant and infrared-improved variational analysis of the Yang-Mills vacuum wave functional
Hilmar Forkel
We study a gauge-invariant variational framework for the Yang-Mills vacuum wave functional. Our approach is built on gauge-averaged Gaussian trial functionals which substantially e…
Chaotic thermalization in Yang-Mills-Higgs theory on a spacial lattice
Ricardo Fariello, Hilmar Forkel
We analyze the Hamiltonian time evolution of classical SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with a fundamental Higgs doublet on a spacial lattice. In particular, we study energy transfer…
Chaotic monopole interactions and vacuum disorder
Hilmar Forkel
We study chaotic regions in the phase space of classical non-Abelian gauge theory, focusing particularly on those which determine the low-energy interactions between BPS monopoles,…
Regular and chaotic interactions of two BPS dyons at low energy
Ricardo Fariello, Hilmar Forkel, Gastao Krein
We identify and analyze quasiperiodic and chaotic motion patterns in the time evolution of a classical, non-Abelian Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) dyon pair at low energies.…
Yang-Mills instantons in closed Robertson-Walker spacetime
Hilmar Forkel
We construct a four-parameter class of self-dual instanton solutions of the classical SU(2)-Yang-Mills equations in a closed Euclidean Robertson-Walker space-time.
