Wilson-Loop Symmetry Breaking Reexamined

arXiv:1411.6766 · doi:10.1016/0370-2693(88)91357-3

Abstract

The splitting in energy of gauge field vacua on the non-simply connected space $S^3/Z_2$ is reconsidered. We show the calculation to the one-loop level for a Yang-Mills vector with a ghost field. We confirm our previous result and give a solution to the question posed by Freire, Romão and Barroso.
