Abstract

We explore simulations on periodic lattices in the Tomboulis SO(3) × Z(2) formulation. We measure gauge invariant vortex counters for "thin", "thick" and "hybrid" vortex sheets in order to tag Wilson loops by the occurance of gauge invariant vortices linking them. We also measure projection vortex counters defined in the maximal center gauge for comparison.
