Center-Vortex Loops with One Self-Intersection

الملخص EN

We investigate the 2D behavior of one-fold self-intersecting, topologically stabilized center-vortex loops in the confining phase of an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory.

This coarse-graining is described by curve-shrinking evolution of center-vortex loops immersed in a flat 2D plane driving the renormalization-group flow of an effective “action.” We observe that the system evolves into a highly ordered state at finite noise level, and we speculate that this feature is connected with 2D planar high Tc superconductivity in FeAs systems.
