Center vortices and monopoles without lattice Gribov copies
Aug, 2000Citations per year
Abstract:
We construct a smooth gauge for the adjoint field which is free of ambiguities on the lattice. In this Laplacian Center Gauge, center vortices and monopoles appear together as local gauge defects. A numerical study of center vortices in SU(2) and SU(3) supports equality of the and SU(N) string tensions in the continuum limit, and only then.- 11.15.Ha
