We demonstrate that the inversion method can be a very useful tool in providing an infrared stabilization of 3D gauge theories, in combination with the mass operator $A^2$ in the Landau gauge. The numerical results will be unambiguous,…
We obtain the precise condition on the potentials of Yang-Mills theories in 0+1 dimensions and D0 brane quantum mechanics ensuring the discretness of the spectrum. It is given in terms of a moment of inertia of the membrane. From it we…
Using a contour integral representation we analyze the multi-instanton sector in two dimensional $U(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on a sphere and argue the role of multi-instanton in the large $N$ phase transition. In the strong coupling region at…
Infra-red divergences obscure the underlying soft dynamics in gauge theories. They remove the pole structures associated with particle propagation in the various Green's functions of gauge theories. Here we present a solution to this…

Studies of noncommutative gauge theory have mainly focused on noncommutative spacetimes with constant noncommutative structure, with little known about actions for noncommutative 4D Yang-Mills theory beyond this case. We construct an action…
Gauge fields of semisimple groups of internal symmetries are massless and require the special techniques for guarantee their mass. Massive mechanisms usually contain transformations of shifts typical to nonsemisimple groups. We show that…
We perform the dual transformation of the Yang-Mills theory in d=3 dimensions using the Wilson action on the cubic lattice. The dual lattice is made of tetrahedra triangulating a 3-dimensional curved manifold but embedded into a flat…
We consider the phase transition in the "hot" dual long-distances Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature $T$. This phase transition is associated with a change of symmetry. The dual model is formulated in terms of two-point Wightman…
We study fluctuation modes in ten-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with a higher derivative term for the gauge field. We consider the ten-dimensional space-time to be a product of a four-dimensional space-time and six-dimensional sphere which…
We consider the Yang-Mills flow on hyperbolic 3-space. The gauge connection is constructed from the frame-field and (not necessarily compatible) spin connection components. The fixed points of this flow include zero Yang-Mills curvature…
Using the covariant phase space formalism, we construct the phase space for non-Abelian gauge theories in $(d+2)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime for any $d \geq 2$, including the edge modes that symplectically pair to the low energy…
The perturbation theory over inverse interaction constant $1/g$ is constructed for Yang-Mills theory. It is shown that the new perturbation theory is free from the gauge ghosts and Gribov's ambiguities, each order over $1/g$ presents the…
We propose and study at large N a new lattice gauge model , in which the Yang-Mills interaction is induced by the heavy scalar field in adjoint representation. At any dimension of space and any $ N $ the gauge fields can be integrated out…
In two-dimensional Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theories for large gauge groups, there is a dominant representation determining the thermodynamic limit of the system. This representation is characterized by a density the value of…
We find an explicit form for the Jacobian of arbitrary field-dependent BRST transformations in Yang-Mills theory. For the functional-integral representation of the (gauge-fixed) Yang-Mills vacuum functional, such transformations merely…
