Generalized Coordinate Gauge and Nonabelian Stokes Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
A (coordinate) gauge of general type is introduced where 1-form (vector potential) is expressed as a contour integral of the 2-form (field strength) along an arbitrary contour C. For a special class of contours the gauge condition reduces to k µ (x)A µ (x) = 0 where k µ (x) is a tangent vector to the contour C. A simple proof of the nonabelian Stokes theorem is given demonstrating the advantage of the gauge.

This is an extended version of the paper hep-th/9802134. Dual QCD Lagrangian is derived by making use of the coordinate gauge of general type where the 1-form (vector potential) is expressed as a contour integral of the 2-form (field strength) along an (arbitrary) contour C. As another application a simple proof of the nonabelian Stokes theorem is given.

A contour gauge of general type is analysed where 1-form (vector potential) is expressed as a contour integral of the 2-form (field strength) along an arbitrary contour C. For a special class of contours the gauge condition reduces to k µ (x)A µ (x) = 0 where k µ (x) is a tangent vector to the contour C. It is shown, that this gauge is advantageous to give a simple proof of the nonabelian Stoke...

Field correlators in QCD. Theory and applications. Abstract This review is dedicated to the study of nonabelian gauge theories by making use of the gauge-invariant nonlocal field correlators. Basic theoretical aspects, such as nonabelian Stokes theorem, cluster expansion , Gaussian dominance as well as numerous phenomenological applications are reviewed.
متن کاملNon-abelian Stokes Theorem and Quark Confinement in Qcd
To understand the Abelian dominance and magnetic monopole dominance in lowenergy QCD, we rewrite the non-Abelian Wilson loop into the form which is written in terms of its Abelian components or the ’t Hooft-Polyakov tensor describing the magnetic monopole. This is peformed by making use of a version of non-Abelian Stokes theorem. We propose a modified version of the maximal Abelian (MA) gauge. ...
متن کاملA Second Reply to Hunter
In O(3) symmetry electrodynamics the field tensor is governed by a nonAbelian Stokes Theorem, as in any non-Abelian gauge theory. The comments on the B component of this field tensor by Hunter in this Issue address B as if it were a U(1) symmetry field, governed by the ordinary Stokes Theorem, and are therefore sequentially erroneous, because there is a basic misunderstanding of the nature of O...
