Unquenched Kogut-Susskind quark propagator in lattice Landau gauge QCD
Quark propagators of the unquenched Kogut-Susskind (KS) fermion obtained from the gauge configurations of the MILC Collaboration are measured after Landau gauge fixing and using the Staple+Naik action. Presence of the qq condensates and A{sup 2} condensates in the dynamical mass M(q) and the quark wave function renormalization Z{sub {psi}}(q{sup 2}) are investigated. We obtain the correlation of the renormalization factor of the running coupling taken at {mu}{approx}6 GeV and that of the quark wave function renormalization Z{sub {psi}}(q{sup 2}) of the Staple+Naik action. The mass function M(q) is finite at q=0 and its chiral limit is {approx}0.38 GeV. We compared the results corrected by the scale of the vertex renormalization and the tadpole renormalization with the corresponding values obtained by the Asqtad action without renormalization and observed good agreement. Implication of infrared finite Z{sub 2}(q)=1/Z{sub {psi}}(q{sup 2}) to the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion is discussed.

Roles of the quark field in the infrared lattice Coulomb gauge and Landau gauge QCD
Fac of Infor Sci; Utsunomiya Univ, Utsunomiya, 320-8585 JapanE-mail:nakajima@is.utsunomiya-u.ac.jpThe effective coupling of QCD is measured by using the gauge conﬁgurations produced by theMILC collaboration in which the Kogut Susskind (KS) fermion is incorporated and by using thatproducedby the QCDOC collaborationin which the domain wall fermion (DWF) is incorporated.We ﬁx the gauge to the Landau gauge and to the Coulomb gauge. Th e infrared effective couplingin the Coulomb gauge agrees with the recent extraction at JLab, but that in the Landau gaugeshows infrared suppression. The suppression is expected to be due to the color anti-symmetricghost propagator which in the unquenched conﬁgurations has stronger infrared singularity thanthe color diagonal ghost propagator. The Coulomb form factor in the infrared depends on the kindof the fermion incorporated in the system and the temperature.The quark has the effect of quenching randomness and the ﬂuct uation of the color anti-symmetricghost propagator is reduced in the unquenched conﬁguration , and the Kugo-Ojima parameterc iscloser to 1 in the unquenched conﬁguration than in the quench ed conﬁguration.The XXV International Symposium on Lattice Field TheoryJuly 30 - August 4 2007Regensburg, Germany

Spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry in a vector-gluon model
Solutions of the self-consistent equation for fermion propagator in a vector-gluon model are fully examined. The equation is characterized by a set of parameters, i.e., the coupling constant g, the bare mass of the fermion mo and the cutoff A. It is proved that with a suitable gauge chosen, the equation without ~utoff has solutions ·only in the case mo=O, It is then shown that, if g'/4n Bn, the "normal-state" solution for the equation without cutoff, even if it existed, should necessarily have an unphysical singularity. This fact implies that the "normal-state" solution becomes unstable for a su.fficiently large value of g'. § l. Introduction The. reason for success of low energy theorems obtained by current algebra and PCAC-treatment may be well understood in terms of chiral symmetry in which the pseudoscalar mesons play a special role among hadtons as the Nambu­ Goldstone (NG) bosons1l transforming nonlinearly under chiral transformation. On the other hand, in the composite hadron models based on SU(3) or SU(6), it is clear that there is no vital distinction between pseudoscalar mesons and others such as vector- and tensor-mesons. It is therefore worth expecting that the pseudoscalar NG bosons can also be interpreted as the bound states in con­ formity with the viewpoint of the composite model. . This homogeneity and· heterogeneity ot the pseudoscalar mesons to other mesons should rather be in­ vestigated by comparing their internal structure with composite particles· . . In this respect it would be meaningful to study a model in which spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is realized by a composite NG boson: The Nambu­ Jona-Lasinio model2l is known as such an example. However, the use of chain approximation and the momentum cutoff inevitable for the local four-fermion

Numerical studies of confinement in the lattice Landau gauge
Critical conjectures on confinement in the Landau gauge is numerically tested in focus to Gribov copy effects. One of the subjects is of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion and the other is of various viewpoints in the Gribov-Zwanziger theory. We use the smearing gauge as a reference gauge free of Gribov copy, and performed three types of simulations, log U, U-linear and log U in the smearing gauge. It is found that Gribov copy effect on the Kugo-Ojima parameter is small. log U and U-linear simulations yield only global scale factor difference in gluon propagator, but nontrivial difference of momentum behaviour in ghost propagator, and about 10% difference in Kugo-Ojima parameter. The horizon function defined by Zwanziger is evaluated in three types of gauge field and compared. All data show the negative horizon function as expected.

Test of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion in the lattice landau gauge
We present the first results of numerical test of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion in the lattice Landau gauge. The Kugo-Ojima criterion of colour confinement in the BRS formulation of the continuum gauge theory is given by uba(0) = −δba, where 
∫dXeip(x−)〈O|TDμca(X)g(Av×c)b(Y)|O〉=(gμvPμPvp2)Uba(p2). (∗) 
 
 
We measured the lattice version of uba(0) in use of 1/(−∂D (A)) where Dμ(A) is a lattice covariant derivative in the new definition of the gauge field as U = eA. We obtained that uba(0) is consistent with −cδba, c = 0.7 in SU(3) quenched simulation data of β = 5.5, on 84 and 124. We report the β dependence and finite-size effect of c.

Vortex-type Half-BPS Solitons in ABJM Theory
We study Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) theory without and with mass deformation. It is shown that maximally supersymmetry preserving, D-term, and F-term mass deformations of single mass parameter are equivalent. We obtain vortex-type halfBPS equations and the corresponding energy bound. For the undeformed ABJM theory, the resulting half-BPS equation is the same as that in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and no finite energy regular BPS solution is found. For the mass-deformed ABJM theory, the halfBPS equations for U(2)×U(2) case reduce to the vortex equation in Maxwell-Higgs theory, which supports static regular multi-vortex solutions. In U(N)×U(N) case with N > 2 the nonabelian vortex equation of Yang-Mills-Higgs theory is obtained.

Quiver Varieties and Tensor Products, II
We define a family of homomorphisms on a collection of convolution algebras associated with quiver varieties, which gives a kind of coproduct on the Yangian associated with a symmetric Kac-Moody Lie algebra. We study its property using perverse sheaves.

Testing the seesaw mechanism at collider energies in the Randall-Sundrum model
The Randall-Sundrum model with gauge fields and fermions in the bulk has several attractive features including the gauge coupling unification, a candidate for the dark matter, and an explanation for the hierarchical Yukawa couplings. 
In this paper, we point out that the 1st Kaluza-Klein modes of right-handed neutrinos may be produced at colliders, for both Dirac and Majorana neutrino cases. Furthermore, we can see whether the neutrino masses are Dirac type or Majorana type from the mass spectrum of KK particles.

t-analogs of q-characters of Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules of quantm affine algebras
We prove the Kirillov-Reshetikhin conjecture concerning certain finite dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra $\Ua$ when $\hat\g$ is an untwisted affine Lie algebra of type $ADE$. We use $t$--analog of $q$--characters introduced by the author in an essential way.

Imaging Spectroscopy on Preflare Coronal Nonthermal Sources Associated with the 2002 July 23 Flare
We present a detailed examination on the coronal nonthermal emissions during the preflare phase of the X4.8 flare that occurred on 2002 July 23. The microwave (17 GHz and 34 GHz) data obtained with Nobeyama Radioheliograph, at Nobeyama Solar Radio Observatory and the hard X-ray (HXR) data taken with RHESSI obviously showed nonthermal sources that are located above the flare loops during the preflare phase. We performed imaging spectroscopic analyses on the nonthermal emission sources both in microwaves and in HXRs, and confirmed that electrons are accelerated from several tens of keV to more than 1 MeV even in this phase. If we assume the thin-target model for the HXR emission source, the derived electron spectral indices (~4.7) is the same value as that from microwaves (~4.7) within the observational uncertainties, which implies that the distribution of the accelerated electrons follows a single power law. The number density of the microwave-emitting electrons is, however, larger than that of the HXR-emitting electrons, unless we assume low-ambient plasma density of about 1.0 × 109 cm–3 for the HXR-emitting region. If we adopt the thick-target model for the HXR emission source, on the other hand, the electron spectral index (~6.7) is much different, while the gap of the number density of the accelerated electrons is somewhat reduced.
