Creutz Ratios From Color-Truncated Lattice Configurations
We investigate whether information about Creutz ratios is encoded,
separately, in each gluon color component of numerically generated lattice
configurations. Working in SU(2) lattice gauge theory in Landau gauge, we set
two of the three gluon color components to zero, and compensate for the loss of
two-thirds of the fluctuation by simply rescaling the remaining component by a
factor of . Creutz ratios are then computed with this "abelianized"
configuration. We find that the Creutz ratios of loops constructed from
abelianized links converge to the usual Creutz ratios in the scaling regime.Comment: 5 pages, plain LaTeX, one figur

A microscopic semiclassical confining field equation for lattice gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions
We present a semiclassical nonlinear field equation for the confining field
in 2+1--dimensional lattice gauge theory (compact QED). The equation is
derived directly from the underlying microscopic quantum Hamiltonian by means
of truncation. Its nonlinearities express the dynamic creation of magnetic
monopole currents leading to the confinement of the electric field between two
static electric charges. We solve the equation numerically and show that it can
be interpreted as a London relation in a dual superconductor.Comment: 21 pages, epsf postscript figures included, full postscript available
