Description

Instantons for a long time were associated with breaking of U(1) and SU(Nf) chiral symmetries in QCD-like theories. Monopoles, on the other hand are related to dual superconductor picture and confinement. Instanton-dyons are instanton constituents, discovered in 1998 by van Baal and others: they incorporate properties of both instants and monopoles. Recently several papers, both analytic and numerical simulations, have studied ensemble of the instanton-dyons. The results indeed show that in this way one can explain BOTH confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, when the ensemble is dense enough (at strong enough coupling or small temperature). The details can be found in the references below.
