Confinement, the Abelian Decomposition, and the Contribution of Topology to the Static Quark Potential

Nigel Cundy, Yongmin Cho, Weonjong Lee

In the past few years, we have presented a new way of considering quark confinement. Through a careful choice of a Cho-Duan-Ge Abelian Decomposition, we can construct the QCD Wilso…
