| contents | We give a review on hyperbolic magnetic monopoles and hyperbolic vortices obtained in the unified way through the conformal equivalence by the dimensional reduction from the symmetric instantons with various spatial symmetries in the four-dimensional Euclidean Yang-Mills theory. They are used to understand quark confinement in the sense of the area law of the Wilson loop average in a semi-classical picture from a unified treatment of Atiyah's hyperbolic magnetic monopole and Witten-Manton's hyperbolic vortex. In this way quark confinement is shown to be realized by the the non-perturbative vacuum disordered by these topological defects. For this purpose we start from the 4-dim. Euclidean Yang-Mills theory and require the conformal equivalence between the 4-dim. Euclidean space and the possible curved spacetimes with some compact dimensions. This requirement forces us to restrict the gauge configurations of 4-dim.Yang-Mills instantons to those with some spatial symmetries (called symmetric instantons) which are identified with magnetic monopoles and vortices living in the lower-dimensional curved hyperbolic spacetime with constant negative curvature through the dimensional reduction. At the same time, this scheme caused by the dimensional reduction give a holographic description of hyperbolic magnetic monopole dominance on AdS3 in the rigorous way without any further assumptions, which does not hold in the flat Euclidean case. This unified treatment of two topological defects is shown to give the semi-classical picture for quark confinement in the sense of Wilson. We give the understanding of the result from the viewpoint of the gauge-covariant Cho-Duan-Ge-Faddeev-Niemi decomposition for the gauge field. |
