Infrared Features of Lattice Landau Gauge QCD and the Gribov Copy Problem
Infrared features of gluon propagator, ghost propagator, QCD running coupling and the Kugo‐Ojima parameter in lattice Landau gauge QCD are presented. The framework of PMS analysis suggests that there appear infrared, intermediate and ultraviolet regions specified by ΛMS, β0 and β1. The propagators and the running coupling of q > 1GeV are fitted by the MO∼M scheme using the factorization scale as the scale parameter. The running coupling data of q < 14GeV are fitted by the contour improved perturbation method. The Gribov copy problem is studied in SU (2), β = 2.2 samples by comparing the data gauge fixed by the parallel tempering method and the data gauge fixed by the straightforward gauge fixing. The Gribov noise effect turned out to be about 2%.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

Central charges in non(anti)commutative N=2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory
Abstract We study the central charge of the deformed N = ( 1 , 0 ) supersymmetry algebra in non(anti)commutative N = 2 supersymmetric U ( N ) gauge theory. In the cases of N = 1 / 2 superspace and N = 2 harmonic superspace with the singlet deformation, we find that the central charge is deformed by the non(anti)commutative parameters but depends on the electric and magnetic charges. For generic deformation of N = 2 harmonic superspace, we compute the O ( C ) correction to the central charges in the case of U ( 1 ) gauge group.

Instanton calculus in R-R 3-form background and deformed = 2 super Yang-Mills theory
We study the ADHM construction of instantons in = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory deformed in constant Ramond-Ramond (R-R) 3-form field strength background in type IIB superstrings. We compare the deformed instanton effective action with the effective action of fractional D3/D(−1) branes at the orbifold singularity of C2/Z2 in the same R-R background. We find discrepancy between them at the second order in deformation parameters, which comes from the coupling of the translational zero modes of the D(−1)-branes to the R-R background. We improve the deformed action by adding a term with space-time dependent gauge coupling. Although the space-time action differs from the action in the Ω-background, both actions lead to the same instanton equations of motion at the lowest order in gauge coupling.

Handsaw quiver varieties and finite W-algebras
Following Braverman-Finkelberg-Feigin-Rybnikov (arXiv:1008.3655), we study the convolution algebra of a handsaw quiver variety, a.k.a. a parabolic Laumon space, and a finite W-algebra of type A. This is a finite analog of the AGT conjecture on 4-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with surface operators. Our new observation is that the C^*-fixed point set of a handsaw quiver variety is isomorphic to a graded quiver variety of type A, which was introduced by the author in connection with the representation theory of a quantum affine algebra. As an application, simple modules of the W-algebra are described in terms of IC sheaves of graded quiver varieties of type A, which were known to be related to Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. This gives a new proof of a conjecture by Brundan-Kleshchev on composition multiplicities on Verma modules, which was proved by Losev, in a wider context, by a different method.

Deformation of super Yang-Mills theories in R-R 3-form background
We study deformation of = 2 and = 4 super Yang-Mills theories, which are obtained as the low-energy effective theories on the (fractional) D3-branes in the presence of constant Ramond-Ramond 3-form background. We calculate the Lagrangian at the second order in the deformation parameter from open string disk amplitudes. In = 4 case we find that all supersymmetries are broken for generic deformation parameter but part of supersymmetries are unbroken for special case. We also find that classical vacua admit fuzzy sphere configuration. In = 2 case we determine the deformed supersymmetries. We rewrite the deformed Lagrangians in terms of = 1 superspace, where the deformation is interpreted as that of coupling constants.
