Instantons and Monopoles in Lattice Qcd

چکیده
We analyze the interplay of topological objects in four-dimensional QCD on the lattice. The distributions of color magnetic monopoles in the maximum abelian gauge are computed around instantons in both pure and full QCD. We find an enhanced probability for monopoles inside the core of an instanton on gauge field average. This feature is independent of the topological charge definition used. For specific gauge field configurations we visualize the situation graphically. Moreover we investigate how monopole loops and instantons are correlated with the chiral condensate. Strong evidence is found that clusters of the quark condensate and topological objects coexist locally on individual configurations.

Existence of Chiral-Asymmetric Zero Modes in the Background of QCD-Monopoles
There are two distinct pictures of the vacuum structure in QCD. One is based on the appearance of color-magnetic monopoles (QCDmonopoles) after performing the abelian gauge xing [1]. The recent lattice QCD simulations show that the dual Meissner e ect brought to the QCD vacuum by QCD-monopole condensation [2]. Hence, color con nement could be regarded as the dual version of the superconductivit...
متن کاملCoexistence of monopoles and instantons for different topological charge definitions and lattice actions
We compute instanton sizes and study correlation functions between instantons and monopoles in maximum abelian projection within SU(2) lattice QCD at finite temperature. We compare several definitions of the topological charge, different lattice actions and methods of reducing quantum fluctuations. The average instanton size turns out to be σ ≈ 0.2 fm. The correlation length between monopoles a...
متن کاملUA(1) Anomaly in Background Fields Dominated by QCD-Monopoles on SU(2) Lattice
We study UA(1) anomaly of non-perturbative QCD in the maximally abelian gauge on SU(2) lattice. The existence of the strong correlation between QCD-monopoles and instantons in the abelian gauge is shown by both analytic and numerical works including lattice simulations. These results bring us a conjecture that the UA(1) symmetry would be explicitly broken in the background fields dominated by Q...
متن کاملInstanton, Monopole Condensation and Confinement
The confinement mechanism in the nonperturbative QCD is studied in terms of topological excitation as QCDmonopoles and instantons. In the ’t Hooft abelian gauge, QCD is reduced into an abelian gauge theory with monopoles, and the QCD vacuum can be regarded as the dual superconductor with monopole condensation, which leads to the dual Higgs mechanism. The monopole-current theory extracted from Q...

We investigate the confinement properties in the multi-instanton system, where the size distribution is assumed to be ρ −5 for the large instanton size ρ. We find that the instanton vacuum gives the area law behavior of the Wilson loop, which indicates existence of the linear confining potential. In the multi-instanton system, the string tension increases monotonously with the instanton density...
