Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, I describe calculations done in $U(1)$ lattice gauge theory. After reviewing general concepts for doing calculations using quantum field theory on a space-time lattice, I discuss the presence of topological objects, which correspond to local minima of the action. These topological objects are identified as magnetic monopoles. Using configurations of monopoles identified in gauge field simulations in four dimensions, I study the behavior of the monopoles near the confinement-deconfinement transition. In order to understand how quantitative calculations may be performed using the monopoles, I have performed numerical simulations of the gauge fields in three dimensions and extracted monopole configurations. Using a calculational scheme developed in this thesis, these monopole configurations are used to calculate the static potential between two quarks. The results are compared with answers obtained using semi-classical methods.

Download or read book Lattice Gauge Theories An Introduction Fourth Edition written by Heinz J Rothe and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad introduction to gauge field theories formulated on a space-time lattice, and in particular of QCD. It serves as a textbook for advanced graduate students, and also provides the reader with the necessary analytical and numerical techniques to carry out research on his own. Although the analytic calculations are sometimes quite demanding and go beyond an introduction, they are discussed in sufficient detail, so that the reader can fill in the missing steps. The book also introduces the reader to interesting problems which are currently under intensive investigation. Whenever possible, the main ideas are exemplified in simple models, before extending them to realistic theories. Special emphasis is placed on numerical results obtained from pioneering work. These are displayed in a great number of figures. Beyond the necessary amendments and slight extensions of some sections in the third edition, the fourth edition includes an expanded section on Calorons — a subject which has been under intensive investigation during the last twelve years.

This book was released on 1997-06-09 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the reader to an area of elementary particle physics which has been the subject of intensive research in the past two decades. It provides graduate students with the basic theoretical background on quantum gauge field theories formulated on a space-time lattice, and with the computational tools for carrying out research in this field. The book is a substantially extended version of the first edition which appeared in 1992. Much effort has been invested to present the material in a transparent way, and in exemplifying subtle points in simple models. The material covered should enable the reader to follow the vast literature on the subject without too much difficulties. Hopefully the book will motivate young physicists to carry out research in this area of elementary particle physics.
Download or read book Gauge Theories and Seiberg Witten Monopoles written by Hagop Bedros Tossounian and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1983, Donaldson achieved a breakthrough in differential topology by using the moduli space of solutions of an SU(2)-gauge theory to construct new invariants of smooth 4-manifolds. The methods revealed by Donaldson, although highly successful, are known to be technically very difficult. In 1994, Witten suggested that the moduli space of certain monopole equations studied earlier by Seiberg and himself could recover all the results obtainable through Donaldson's approach, while being easier to handle. This claim was proven in many cases. The Seiberg-Witten theory is an example of a U(1)-gauge theory. In this thesis, the geometrical structures needed for the construction of gauge theories, such as principal bundles, connections and matter fields are introduced. The Seiberg Witten equations are defined, and their invariance under the relevant gauge group is established. Finally, the cohomology of a complex naturally associated with a Seiberg-Witten monopole is considered, and we show that such a cohomology exists in a much more general context. In the case of Seiberg-Witten, its vanishing in degrees 0 and 2 implies smoothness of the moduli space in the neighborhood of the monopole.

Download or read book Lattice Gauge Theory 86 written by Helmut Satz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the Proceedings of'the International Workshop "Lattice Gauge Theory 1986", held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, September 15 - 19, 1986. The meeting was the sequel to the one held at Wuppertal in 1985, the Proceedings of which have appeared in the same Plenum series. During the past few years, a considerable number of meetings on lat tice gauge theory have been held, on both sides of the Atlantic. With our workshop, through early planning and coordination with other prospective organizers, we tried to channel this activity into one major yearly meeting. For 1986, these efforts were successful, and it is our hope that a pattern has been set for the coming years. One result, however, was that the number of participants considerably exceeded that normally found at NATO Advanced Research Workshops. This year, a "nucleus" of NATO-supported experts induced a large number of further interested specialists to obtain their own funds - thus greatly amplifying the impact of the event. The topics covered at the workshop ranged from hadron spectra to strong interaction thermo dynamics; they included spontaneous symmetry breaking and Higgs models, renormalization group methods, as well as many contributions on various possible schemes for the simulation of dynamical quarks. First systematic applications of finite size scaling to lattice gauge theory were discussed, and the approach to the continuum limit was considered in detail.
Download or read book Chaos And Gauge Field Theory written by Tamas S Biro and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1995-03-07 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces a rapidly growing new research area — the study of dynamical properties of elementary fields. The methods used in this field range from algebraic topology to parallel computer programming. The main aim of this research is to understand the behavior of elementary particles and fields under extreme circumstances, first of all at high temperature and energy density generated in the largest accelerators of the world and supposed to be present in the early evolution of our Universe shortly after the Big Bang.In particular, chaos is rediscovered in a new appearance in these studies: in gauge theories the well-known divergence of initially adjacent phase space trajectories leads over into a quasi-thermal distribution of energy with a saturated average distance of different field configurations. This particular behavior is due to the compactness of the gauge group.Generally this book is divided into two main parts: the first part mainly deals with the “classical” discovery of chaos in gauge field theory while the second part presents methods and research achievements in recent years. One chapter is devoted entirely to the presentation and discussion of computational problems. The major theme, returning again and again throughout the book, is of course the phenomenon with a thousand faces — chaos itself.This book is intended to be a research book which introduces the reader to a new research field, presenting the basic new ideas in detail but just briefly touching on the problems of other related fields, like perturbative or lattice gauge theory, or dissipative chaos. The terminology of these related fields are, however, used.Exercises are also included in this book. They deepen the reader's understanding of special issues and at the same time offer more information on related problems. For the convenience of the fast reader, solutions are presented right after the problems.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of quark confinement is one of the classic unsolved problems of particle physics and is fundamental to our understanding of the physics of the strong interaction and the behaviour of non-Abelian gauge theories in general. The confinement problem is also are area in which concepts from topology and techniques of computational physics both find important applications. This volume contains a snapshot of current research in this field as of January 2002. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of topological field configurations such as centre vortices and monopoles in proposed confinement mechanisms. Other topics covered include colour superconductivity, instantons and chiral symmetry breaking, matrix models and the construction of chiral gauge theories. Readership: Research scientists and graduate students of high energy physics and nuclear physics.
