Background Field Method

We compute the effective potential of SU(2) Yang–Mills theory using the background field method and the Faddeev–Niemi decomposition of the gauge fields. In particular, we find that the potential will depend on the values of two scalar fields in the decomposition and that its structure will give rise to a symmetry breaking.

A new doublet variable is proposed to decompose non-Abelian gauge field for describing the topological effects of instantons due to the defects in appropriate phase of SU(2) Yang–Mills theory. It is shown that the instanton number can be directly related to the isospin defects of the doublet order parameter and contributed from topological charges of these defects. The θ-term in instanton action is found to be the delta-function form of the doublet and the Lagrangian of instantons in terms of new variables is also presented.

Loop Approximation

Using a two-loop approximation for β functions, we have considered the corresponding renormalization group improved effective potential in the dual Abelian Higgs model (DAHM) of scalar monopoles and calculated the phase transition (critical) couplings in U(1) and SU (N) regularized gauge theories. In contrast to our previous result α crit ≈0.17, obtained in the one-loop approximation with the DAHM effective potential (see Ref. 20), the critical value of the electric fine structure constant in the two-loop approximation, calculated in the present paper, is equal to α crit ≈0.208 and coincides with the lattice result for compact QED10: [Formula: see text]. Following the 't Hooft's idea of the "Abelization" of monopole vacuum in the Yang–Mills theories, we have obtained an estimation of the SU (N) triple point coupling constants, which is [Formula: see text]. This relation was used for the description of the Planck scale values of the inverse running constants [Formula: see text] (i= 1, 2, 3 correspond to U(1), SU(2) and SU(3) groups), according to the ideas of the multiple point model.16

The One

We study the six-dimensional [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] supersymmetric Yang–Mills (SYM) theories in the component formulation. The one-loop divergencies of effective action are calculated. The leading one-loop low-energy contributions to bosonic sector of effective action are found. It is explicitly demonstrated that the contributions to effective potential for the constant background scalar fields are absent in the [Formula: see text] SYM theory.
