The quantum dimer model on the square lattice is a U(1) gauge theory that addresses aspects of the physics of high-T-c superconductors. Using a quantum Monte Carlo method, we show that the theory exists in a confining columnar valence bond solid phase. The interfaces separating distinct columnar phases display plaquette order, which, however, is not realized as a bulk phase. Static electric charges are confined by flux tubes that consist of multiple strands, each carrying a fractionalized flux 1/4. A soft pseudo-Goldstone mode (which becomes exactly massless at the Rokhsar-Kivelson point) extends deep into the columnar phase, with potential implications for high-T-c physics.
