Bo Zhang, Falk Bruckmann, Ernst-Michael Ilgenfritz

TL;DR
This paper investigates the vortex structures in SU(2) calorons and multi-caloron systems using Laplacian Center Gauge, revealing how vortex surfaces relate to caloron constituents and their role in confinement.
Contribution
It demonstrates the vortex content of calorons and multi-calorons, linking vortex percolation to holonomy and confinement, thus supporting the vortex confinement mechanism.
Findings
Vortex surfaces are induced by dyon charges and their twist.
Vortex percolation occurs at maximal nontrivial holonomy.
Calorons facilitate the vortex confinement mechanism.
Abstract
We use Laplacian Center Gauge to reveal the vortex content of single SU(2) calorons and multi-caloron systems at different holonomies. The vortex surfaces in a single SU(2) caloron consist of two parts that are induced by the constituent dyon charges and by the twist between the dyons, respectively. The latter part percolates in a caloron ensemble at maximal nontrivial holonomy. This finding fits perfectly in the confinement scenario of vortices and shows that calorons are suitable to facilitate the vortex confinement mechanism.
