Excitations of isolated static charges in q=2 Abelian Higgs theory
Kazue Matsuyama
In this report, I discuss lattice Monte Carlo evidence of excitations of isolated static charges in q=2 Abelian Higgs theory. The localized excitations are excited states of the in…
Excitations of isolated static charges in the charge abelian Higgs model
Kazue Matsuyama
We present lattice Monte Carlo evidence of stable excitations of isolated static charges in the Higgs phase of the charge abelian Higgs model. These localized excitations are…
The Higgs phase as a spin glass, and the transition between varieties of confinement
Jeff Greensite, Kazue Matsuyama
We propose that the Higgs phase of a gauge Higgs theory is the phase of spontaneously broken custodial symmetry, and present a new gauge invariant order parameter for custodial sym…
The nature of symmetry breaking in the superconducting ground state
Kazue Matsuyama, Jeff Greensite
The order parameters which are thought to detect U(1) gauge symmetry breaking in a superconductor are both non-local and gauge dependent. For that reason they are also ambiguous as…
On the distinction between color confinement, and confinement
Jeff Greensite, Kazue Matsuyama
The property of color confinement ("C confinement"), meaning that all asymptotic particle states are color neutral, holds not only in QCD, but also in gauge-Higgs theories deep in…
Cuprates and center vortices: A QCD confinement mechanism in a high-Tc context
Jeff Greensite, Kazue Matsuyama
It is suggested that the center vortex confinement mechanism, familiar in hadronic physics, may have some relevance to high-T phenomena. We focus specifically on the tra…
