Abstract
U(1) gauge fields are decomposed into a monopole and photon part across the phase transition from the confinement to the Coulomb phase. We analyze the leading Lyapunov exponents of such gauge field configurations on the lattice which are initialized by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We observe a strong relation between the sizes of the monopole density and the Lyapunov exponent. Evidence is found that monopole fields stay chaotic in the continuum whereas the photon fields are regular.
