Dual Ginzburg-Landau Theory for Quark Confinement and Dynamical Chiral-Symmetry Breaking

H. Toki, Hideo Suganuma, Shoichi Sasaki, H. Ichie

Abstract

Nonperturbative features of QCD are studied using the dual Ginzburg-Landau (DGL) theory with QCD-monopoles. The linear quark potential appears in the QCD-monopole condensed vacuum. We find that QCD-monopole condensation plays an essential role to the dynamical chiral-symmetry breaking. We also investigate the QCD phase transition at finite temperature in the DGL theory.
