* Higgs <----> Glueball* http://arxiv.org/pdf/hep-th/0604006v2.pdf There exists an intimate relationship between the glue-knot and the magnetic monopole which is a basic ingredient in the dual superconductor picture for quark confinement. This issue will be discussed in a subsequent paper. Thus, our approach presents an efficient framework for understanding the mass gap in Yang-Mills theory and quark confinement in QCD. In this paper, as a step along this line, we derive glueball mass spectra by performing the collective coordinate quantization of knot soliton solution in the Faddeev model. Glueballs are identified with knot solitons and their excitations. The knot soliton is a topological soliton with non-vanishing Hopf index QH whose existence is suggested by the non-trivial Homotopy group π3(S2) = Z. ...and so on... Glueballs are also fies in the Higgs ointment. They are like the magnetically induced solitons that steal charge from fermions, but there is no spin associated with them so they just hold and release energy. Like quarks, they are also topological defect in the Higgs field. But quarks are magnetic monopoles connected as pairs by a spin based worm hole through the 5 dimension. The 5th dimension gives all these solitons their wave nature, supports spin, gravity, entanglement, and instantaneous action at a distance.
