Mar 10, 2015 at 9:47 | comment | added | user21090 | The wilson loops method doesn't work for a Higgs-gauge model. The reason is when you have the Higgs filed or matter field, the Wilson loop will always behave as the perimeter law. | |
Aug 24, 2014 at 3:02 | comment | added | Mr. Gentleman | I have a question on the Wilson loop approach, do we have to choose the loop to have the shape like a rectangle whose one edge is time $T$ and the other edge is a distance $R$ and require $T\gg R$? In a theory with Lorentz invariance, this choice may not be too important because time and space are not really different. But in a discrete lattice gauge theory we may not have Lorentz invariance, so it seems this choice of the loop is relevant? Another question: can we say confinement comes if the gauge fluctuation is so strong that electric flux can penetrate the system and charges can interact? | |
