Confinement on ℝ3 × 𝕊1 and double-string collapse

Abstract We study confining strings in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric SU(N c ) Yang-Mills theory in the semiclassical regime on ℝ1,2 × 𝕊1. Static quarks are expected to be confined by double strings composed of two domain walls — which are lines in ℝ2 — rather than by a single flux tube. Eac...
