Abstract: (Elsevier)
Two important properties are discussed of three-dimensional gauge-field configurations which are expected to arise in QCD, beyond the classical level, as a vacuum condensate. First, these configurations have fermion zero modes normalizable in three dimensions, which are responsible for chiral symmetry breakdown. Second, they form a natural dynamical realization of the semi-infinite branch line which necessarily begins on any localized gauge configuration with fractional topological charge. Other properties of these configurations (e.g., as glueballs) are briefly mentioned.- GAUGE FIELD THEORY: SU(2)
