Quark confinement and the renormalization group.
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent approaches to quark confinement are reviewed, with an emphasis on their connection to renormalization group (RG) methods. Basic concepts related to confinement are introduced: the string tension, Wilson loops and Polyakov lines, string breaking, string tension scaling laws, centre symmetry breaking and the deconfinement transition at non-zero temperature. Current topics discussed include confinement on R(3)×S(1), the real-space RG, the functional RG and the Schwinger-Dyson equation approach to confinement.

Soft Qcd Modeling of Meson Electromagnetic Form Factors
We summarize recent progress in soft QCD modeling based on the set of Dyson– Schwinger equations truncated to ladder-rainbow level. We pay particular attention to electromagnetic elastic and transition form factors of the pion. This covariant approach accommodates quark confinement and implements the QCD one-loop renormalization group behavior. The dressed quark propagators are compared to the ...
متن کاملString Theory and Quark Confinement
This article is based on a talk given at the “Strings ’97” conference. It discusses the search for the universality class of confining strings. The key ingredients include the loop equations, the zigzag symmetry, the non-linear renormalization group. Some new tests for the equivalence between gauge fields and strings are proposed.
متن کاملQuark Confinement in Light-Front QCD and A Weak-Coupling Treatment to Heavy Hadrons
In this paper, we develop a weak-coupling treatment of nonperturbative QCD to heavy hadrons on the light-front. First, we present a derivation of quark confining interaction in light-front QCD for heavy quark systems, based on the recently developed light-front similarity renormalization group approach and the light-front heavy quark effective theory. The resulting effective lightfront QCD Hami...
متن کاملQuark-antiquark potential in the analytic approach to QCD
The quark-antiquark potential is constructed by making use of a new analytic running coupling in QCD. This running coupling arises under “analytization” of the renormalization group equation. The rising behavior of the quarkantiquark potential at large distances, which provides the quark confinement, is shown explicitly. At small distances, the standard behavior of this potential originating in...
متن کاملDyson–Schwinger studies of meson masses and decay constants
The Dyson–Schwinger equations [DSEs] form an excellent tool to study nonperturbative aspects of quark propagators and the formation of bound states [1]. The approach is consistent with quark and gluon confinement [2] and generates dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. It is straightforward to implement the correct one-loop renormalization group behavior of QCD [3], and obtain agreement with pertu...
