Using the recently proposed nonlinear gauge condition [Formula: see text] we show the area law behavior of the Wilson loop and the linear dependence of the instantaneous gluon propagator. The field configurations responsible for confinement are those in the nonlinear sector of the gauge-fixing condition (the linear sector being the Coulomb gauge). The nonlinear sector is actually composed of "Gribov horizons" on the parallel surfaces ∂ · Aa=fa≠0. In this sector, the gauge field [Formula: see text] can be expressed in terms of fa and a new vector field [Formula: see text]. The effective dynamics of fa suggests nonperturbative effects. This was confirmed by showing that all spherically symmetric (in 4-D Euclidean) fa(x) are classical solutions and averaging these solutions using a Gaussian distribution (thereby treating these fields as random) lead to confinement. In essence the confinement mechanism is not quantum mechanical in nature but simply a statistical treatment of classical spherically symmetric fields on the "horizons" of ∂ · Aa=fa(x) surfaces.

We show that in the presence of condensation of a gauge field there is confinement of chromodynamic charges. Between these confined charges an electric flux tube is generated. In particular we have considered the classical solutions for an SU (2) Yang-Mills theory in the presence of such a condensate. This treatment has been motivated by the cancellation of infrared divergences in 2+1 dimensions.

Starting from Lagrangian field theory and the variational principle, we show that duality in equations of motion can also be obtained by introducing explicit space–time dependence of the Lagrangian. Poincaré invariance is achieved precisely when the duality conditions are satisfied in a particular way. The same analysis and criteria are valid for both Abelian and non-Abelian dualities. We illustrate how (a) Dirac string solution, (b) Dirac quantization condition, (c) 't Hooft–Polyakov monopole solutions and (d) a procedure emerges for obtaining new classical solutions of Yang–Mills (YM) theory. Moreover, these results occur in a way that is strongly reminiscent of the holographic principle.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Various flocking results have been established for the delayed Cucker-Smale model, especially in the long range communication case. However, the short range communication case is more realistic due to the limited communication ability. In this case, the non-flocking behavior can be frequently observed in numerical simulations. Furthermore, it has potential applications in many practical situations, such as the opinion disagreement in society, fish flock breaking and so on. Therefore, we firstly consider the non-flocking behavior of the delayed Cucker<inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ - $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>Smale model. Based on a key inequality of position variance, a simple sufficient condition of the initial data to the non-flocking behavior is established. Then, for general communication weights we obtain a flocking result, which also depends upon the initial data in the short range communication case. Finally, with no restriction on the initial data we further establish other large time behavior of classical solutions.</p>
