Quantum Hamilton-Jacobi Theory, Spectral Path Integrals and Exact-WKB Analysis
Mustafa Türe, Mithat Ãnsal
We propose a new way to perform path integrals in quantum mechanics by using a quantum version of Hamilton-Jacobi theory. In classical mechanics, Hamilton-Jacobi theory is a powerf…

Center-vortex semiclassics with non-minimal 't Hooft fluxes on and center stabilization at large
Yui Hayashi, Yuya Tanizaki, Mithat Ãnsal
We consider the semiclassical description of confinement for d Yang-Mills theory on small with non-minimal 't Hooft twist with …

The metamorphosis of semi-classical mechanisms of confinement: From monopoles on to center-vortices on
Canberk Güvendik, Thomas Schaefer, Mithat Ãnsal
There are two distinct regimes of Yang-Mills theory where we can demonstrate confinement, the existence of a mass gap, and fractional theta angle dependence using a reliable semi-c…
