I cannot do what these “math kids” are doing,
However, I THINK….NOW WE ARE STARTING TO KICK ASS!
Things are starting to move!

DUAL COMPUTATIONS OF NON-ABELIAN YANG-MILLS ON THE LATTICE

By making topological excitations manifest, a dual model is well suited to evaluating proposed mechanisms of quark confinement, such as the dual superconductor picture.
Note: cubic packing and hex. packing for the plaquettes
Our claim of ergodicity does however depend on the unproven hypothesis that exceptional zeros of the 18j symbol are isolated, i.e. the zeros do not form surfaces that separate the space of admissible spin foams.
Note: Are these two concepts related? When turning a coin (plaquette), (2d) you go from the face (+), to the edge ( zero), to the back (-).
