Abstract

Recently Anishetty, Majumdar and Sharatchandra have proposed a way of characterizing topologically non-trivial configurations for 2+1-dimensional Yang-Mills theory in a local and manifestly gauge invariant manner. Here we develop criteria to locate such objects in lattice gauge theory and find them in numerical simulations.
