Dual vortices and gauge choice in Abelian projected SU(2) lattice gauge theory

We explore vortex formation for Abelian projected SU(2) in the Polyakov gauge and compare the results with those calculated in the maximal Abelian gauge. In both gauges, a non-zero vacuum expectation value of a monopole field operator signals confinement. We find vortices in the Polyakov projection, confirming the connection between the dual superconductor order parameter and the existence of vortices. However we find that the Polyakov Abelian projection is problematic, leaving the maximal Abelian projection as the best candidate to define an effective theory of confinement in this scenario.

Dual vortices in Abelian projected SU(2) in the Polyakov gauge

We study dual Abrikosov vortices in Abelian projected SU(2) gauge theory in the Polyakov gauge. We show that vortices are present in this gauge but they are suppressed with respect to the maximal Abelian gauge. We interpret this difference in terms of the shielding of the electric charge by the charged coset fields.

Some properties of renormalons in gauge theories

We find the explicit operatorial form of renormalon-type singularities in abelian gauge theory. Local operators of dimension six take care of the first U.V. renormalon, non local operators are needed for I.R. singularities. In the effective lagrangian constructed with these operators non local imaginary parts appearing in the usual perturbative expansion at large orders are cancelled.
