Gauge field copies

چکیده
The problem of Wu-Yang ambiguities in 3 dimensions is related to the problem of existence of torsion free driebeins for an arbitrary potential. The ambiguity is only at the level of boundary conditions. We also find that in 3 dimensions, any smooth Yang-Mills field tensor can be uniquely written as the non-Abelian magnetic field of a smooth Yang-Mills potential.

Yang-Mills potentials which generate the same non-abelian magnetic field are, in three dimensions, related to torsion free driebeins. We argue that such gauge field copies are labeled by a triplet of functions and are related to each other by a local SO(3) group of transformations distinct from the gauge transformations, however, within a particular gauge, there are no (continuous class of) gau...
متن کاملGribov Copy and Complex Phase of Chiral Determinant ∗
We calculate the complex phase of chiral determinant by the vacuum overlap formula with configurations of two-dimensional U(1) gauge field fixed in Landau and Laplacian gauge. The complex phase fluctuates over the Gribov copies, which appear in the process of Landau gauge fixing and contain vortex-like singularities. In the Laplacian gauge, the fluctuation can be reduced and the phase can be de...

متن کاملInfrared Behavior of the Gluon Propagator in Lattice Landau Gauge
We evaluate numerically the four-momentum-space gluon propagator in lattice Landau gauge, for pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory with periodic boundary conditions. Simulations are done in the strong-coupling regime, namely at β = 0, 0.8, 1.2 and 1.6, and for lattice sizes up to 30, 16, 20 and 24 respectively. In the limit of large lattice volume, we observe in all cases a gluon propagator decreasi...
متن کاملMinimal U(1) gauge fields in two dimensions
Gribov copies of the vacuum in two dimensional compact U(1) lattice gauge models are constructed. On the basis of this a gauge fixing algorithm is developped, wich finds the minimum of the sum of link field squares. Numerical experience in a two dimensional Higgs model with fixed length scalar field is reported and the extension to three and four dimensional U(1) and four dimensional SU(2) gaug...
متن کاملLaplacian Abelian Projection
A new partial gauge fixing condition for the abelian projection is introduced. It is based on the lowest-lying eigenvector of a covariant Laplacian operator. This gauge is smooth and free of lattice Gribov copies. These properties are important for an unambiguous computation of the abelian projected gauge field configuration.
