Topological confinement in QCD2
In two dimensional SU(N) theories confinement can be understood as a topological property of the vacuum. In the bosonized version of two dimensional theories no trivial boundary conditions (topology) play a crucial role. They are inevitable if one wants to describe non singlet states. In abelian bosonization, color is the charge of a topological current in terms of a non-linear meson field. We show that cofinement appears as the dynamical collapse of the topology associated with its non trivial boundary conditions. Vento Torres, Vicente, Vicente.Vento@ific.uv.es
