We study Wilson line observables in the strong coupling regime and compute their asymptotic behavior with error estimates. Our analysis is based on a high-temperature representation of the lattice Higgs measure combined with Poisson approximation. We also give a short proof of the folklore result that Wilson line (and loop) expectations exhibit perimeter law decay whenever the Higgs field coupling constant is positive.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-11-07T10:28:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "70S15", "81T13", "81T25", "82B20" ], "keywords": [ "strong coupling", "4d fixed length lattice higgs", "fixed length lattice higgs model", "study wilson line observables", "perimeter law decay" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 48, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
