Synopsis

Successful modeling of quantum chromodynamics with a relativistic quark-soliton field theory has been developed over the past decade. As introduced by R Freidberg and T D Lee, the foundation of the model involves the chromodielectric properties of the physical vacuum, which yield absolute color confinement. The model allows for the consistent calculation of the dynamics of hadrons and hadronic reactions. The book summarizes and expands upon the extensive literature on the subject, concentrating on the Friedberg-Lee model and variations thereof. New results and future directions are included. Theory, mathematical methods and numerical results are emphasized.
