We study the behaviour of the spatial and temporal 't Hooft loop at zero and finite temperature in the 4D SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, using a new numerical method. In the deconfined phase $T>T_c$, the spatial 't Hooft loop exhibits a dual string tension, which vanishes at $T_c$ with 3D Ising-like critical exponent.

  1. Tensor renormalization group approach to critical phenomena via symmetry-twisted partition functions

    hep-lat 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Tensor renormalization group computes symmetry-twisted partition functions to identify critical points solely from them, yielding Tc=2.2017(2) and nu=0.663(33) for the 3D O(2) model plus TBKT=0.8928(2) for the 2D O(2)...
