The width of the quantum delocalization of the QCD strings is investigated in effective string models beyond free Nambu-Goto approximation. We consider two Lorentzian-invariant boundary-terms in the Luscher-Weisz string action in addition to self-interaction term equivalent to two loop order in the (NG) string action. The geometrical terms which realize the possible rigidity of the QCD string is scrutinized as well. We perform the numerical analysis on the 4-dim pure $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills lattice gauge theory at two temperature scales near deconfinement point. The comparative study with this QCD string model targets the width of the energy profile of a static quark-antiquark system for color sources separation $0.5 le R le 1.2$ fm. We find the inclusion of rigidity properties and symmetry effects of the boundary action into the string paradigm to reproduce a good match with the profile of the Mont-Carlo data of QCD flux-tube on this distance scale.
Motivated in part by the pseudo-Nambu Goldstone Boson mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking in Composite Higgs Models, in part by dark matter scenarios with strongly coupled origin, as well as by general theoretical considerations related to the
By using the method of center projection the center vortex part of the gauge field is isolated and its propagator is evaluated in the center Landau gauge, which minimizes the open 3-dimensional Dirac volumes of non-trivial center links bounded by the
To set the stage, I discuss the $beta$-function of the massless O(N) model in three dimensions, which can be calculated exactly in the large N limit. Then, I consider SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 space-time dimensions. Relating the $beta$-function
We study the infrared behavior of the effective Coulomb potential in lattice SU(3) Yang-Mills theory in the Coulomb gauge. We use lattices up to a size of 48^4 and three values of the inverse coupling, beta=5.8, 6.0 and 6.2. While finite-volume effec
Non-perturbative aspects of the physics of $Sp(2N)$ gauge theories are interesting for phenomenological and theoretical reasons, and little studied so far, particularly in the approach to the large-$N$ limit. We examine the spectrum of glueballs and
