SO(3) VS. SU(2) Yang-Mills Theory on the Lattice:. AN Investigation at Non-Zero Temperature
Abstract
The adjoint SU(2) lattice gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions with the Wilson plaquette action modified by a Z2 monopole suppression term is reinvestigated with special emphasis on the existence of a finite-temperature phase transition decoupling from the well-known bulk transitions.
