Monopoles, vortices and their correlations in SU(3) gauge group
Abstract Topological defects such as monopoles, vortices and “chains” of the SU(3) gauge group are studied using its SU(2) subgroups. Two appropriate successive gauge transformations are applied to the subgroups to identify the chains of monopoles and vortices. Using the fact that the defects of the...
