Physics Asked on February 24, 2021
It is easy to find various/many papers in HEP-lattice talk about “Non abelian string in QCD”.
What does it mean to say “non abelian string in QCD?” Does “non abelian string” happen for pure Yang-Mills (say $mathrm{SU(N)}$ or $mathrm{SO(N)}$) without any fermions? Or do we require additional fermions?
Does “non abelian string” have any thing to do with the quantum statistics of strings are non abelian? Like non abelian Majorana for certain solid state systems?
Should the string form a worldsheet in the spacetime, thus it should be descried by some 2-form field locally? Any precise math formulation?
P.s. Let us focus on the non-SUSY theory first. There is some question “How about SUSY?” that I removed just to get more focused.
Most of these questions don’t have answers as of now, but we can make some remarks:
Bonus: like one of the comments said, the supersymmetric case is actually simpler, since we can identify dual descriptions more easily and compute things to check these dualities.
