This physical interpretation furnishes also a simple criterium for the confinement of electric fluxes in the large-N limit of QCD. There is also an alternative, compatible interpretation, based on the QCD string.11 pages, latex, no figures, a misprint correctedHigh Energy Physics - TheoryThe Abelian projection versus the Hitchin fibration of K(D) pairs in four-dimensional QCDtext
