In this work, we propose a four-dimensional gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model, obtained as a dimensional reduction from a transgression field theory invariant under the $\mathcal{N}=1$ Poincar\'{e} supergroup. For this purpose, we consider…
We consider a light-like Wilson loop in N=4 SYM evaluated on a regular n-polygon contour. Sending the number of edges to infinity the polygon approximates a circle and the expectation value of the light-like WL is expected to tend to the…
Using the pure spinor formalism we prove identities which relate the tree-level, one-loop and two-loop kinematic factors for massless four-point amplitudes. From these identities it follows that the complete supersymmetric one- and two-loop…
We study N=2 supersymmetric U(1) gauge theory in the noncommutative harmonic superspace with nonanticommutative fermionic coordinates. We examine the gauge transformation which preserves the Wess-Zumino gauge by harmonic expansions of…
We calculate the three-loop contribution to the chiral effective potential in the massless Wess-Zumino model. It is shown that while the non-renormalisation theorem forbids divergent contributions to the chiral potential, in the massless…
We present a full two-loop O(g^6) perturbative field theoretic calculation of the expectation value of two circular Maldacena-Wilson loops in D=4 N=4 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory. It is demonstrated that, after taking into account very…
In this thesis, we study the Nicolai maps of the 2-dimensional Wess-Zumino model, $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Yang-Mills and $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills. We compute the Nicolai map of the 2-dimensional Wess-Zumino model up to the fifth order…
We compute the circular Wilson loop of N=4 SYM theory at large N in the rank k symmetric and antisymmetric tensor representations. Using a quadratic Hermitian matrix model we obtain expressions for all values of the 't Hooft coupling. At…
We propose a method to formulate four-dimensional N=1 super Yang-Mills theory on the lattice without fine-tuning. We first show that four-dimensional Weyl fermion in a real representation, which is equivalent to Majorana fermion, can be…
We calculate the coefficients of the leading non-global logarithms for the hemisphere mass distribution analytically at 3, 4, and 5 loops at large Nc . We confirm that the integrand derived with the strong-energy-ordering approximation and…
We compute the supersymmetric partition function on L(r,1)xS^1, the lens space index, for 4d gauge theories related by supersymmetric dualities and involving non simply-connected groups. This computation is sensitive to the global…
The Schwinger-Dyson equations of the Makeenko-Migdal type, when supplemented with some simple equations as consequence of supersymmetry, form a closed set of equations for Wilson loops and related quantities in the two dimensional…
Quantum correlators of pure supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories in D=3,4,6 and 10 dimensions can be reformulated via the non-linear and non-local transformation (`Nicolai map') that maps the full functional measure of the interacting theory…
A lattice Wess-Zumino model is formulated on the basis of Ginsparg-Wilson fermions. In perturbation theory, our formulation is equivalent to the formulation by Fujikawa and Ishibashi and by Fujikawa. Our formulation is, however, free from a…
We propose a framework for calculating two-loop Feynman diagrams which appear within a renormalizable theory in the general mass case and at finite external momenta. Our approach is a combination of analytical results and of high accuracy…
We provide a complete set of results for the scalar 4-point function appearing in one-loop calculations in QCD, QED, the electroweak Standard Model and popular extensions thereof. Complex internal masses, which are needed for calculations…
We comment on the algorithm to compute periods using hyperlogarithms, applied to massless Feynman integrals in the parametric representation. Explicitly, we give results for all three-loop propagators with arbitrary insertions including…
We present a formulation of the maximally supersymmetric N=4 gauge theory in Lorentz harmonic chiral (LHC) superspace. It is closely related to the twistor formulation of the theory but employs the simpler notion of Lorentz harmonic…
We develop a framework for constructing superconformal blocks for correlators of general supermultiplets in theories with $\mathrm{SU}(m,m|2n)$ symmetry, such as four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ and $\mathcal{N} = 4$ conformal theories. We…
All one-massless-loop Feynman diagrams could be written like a linear combination of scalar boxes, triangles an bubbles in $n$ dimensions plus rational terms. However, the four-point scalar integrals in $n+2$ dimensions are free of infrared…
