We consider $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills on a circle (cylindrical space-time) and quantize the eigenvalues of the holonomy. In this way the Mandelstam identities associated with the holonomy are trivially solved. Furthermore we indicate that there…

A particular dimensional reduction of SU(2N) Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma \times S^2$, with $\Sigma$ a Riemann surface, yields an $S(U(N) \times U(N))$ gauge theory on $\Sigma$, with a matrix Higgs field. The SU(2N) self-dual Yang--Mills…

We derive an infinite sequence of Schwinger-Dyson equations for $N=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The fundamental and the only variable employed is the Wilson-loop geometrically represented in $N=1$ superspace: it organizes an…

We consider Burgers equation with transverse viscosity $$\partial_tu+u\partial_xu-\partial_{yy}u=0, \ \ (x,y)\in \mathbb R^2, \ \ u:[0,T)\times \mathbb R^2\rightarrow \mathbb R.$$ We construct and describe precisely a family of solutions…

We formulate a nonsingular loop-space calculus for Yang-Mills (YM) gradient flow directly in terms of Wilson loops. Variations act within the manifold of smooth loops via finite, reparametrization-invariant "dot derivatives," eliminating…

We study the fluid-like dynamics of eigenvalues of the Wilson operator in the context of the order-disorder (Durhuus-Olesen) transition in large $N_c$ Yang-Mills theory. We link the universal behavior at the closure of the gap found by…

The exact Wilson loop expression for the pure Yang-Mills U(N) theory on a sphere $S^2$ of radius $R$ exhibits, in the decompactification limit $R\to \infty$, the expected pure area exponentiation. This behaviour can be understood as due to…

We find the exact non-perturbative expression for a simple Wilson loop of arbitrary shape for U(N) and SU(N) Euclidean or Minkowskian two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory regulated by the Wu-Mandelstam-Leibbrandt gauge prescription. The result…

We study both analytically and numerically a coupled system of spherically symmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills-dilaton equation in 3+1 Minkowski space-time. It has been found that the system admits a hidden scale invariance which becomes transparent…

N=2* gauge theory in four space-time dimensions arises as a deformation of the parent N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mill theory under which its hypermultiplet acquires a mass. This theory, on the one hand, has a known supergravity dual and on the…

Seiberg-Witten solutions of four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories possess rich but involved integrable structures. The goal of this paper is to show that an isomonodromy problem provides a unified framework for understanding those…

An equation for the quantum average of the gauge invariant Wilson loop in non-commutative Yang-Mills theory with gauge group U(N) is obtained. In the 't Hooft limit, the equation reduces to the loop equation of ordinary Yang-Mills theory.…

We show that the large N partition functions and Wilson loop observables of two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories admit a universal functional form irrespective of the gauge group. We demonstrate that U(N) QCD_2 undergoes a large N,…

In this note we study supersymmetric Wilson loops restricted to an S^2 submanifold of four-dimensional space in N=4 super Yang-Mills. We provide evidence from both perturbation theory and the AdS dual that those loops are equal to the…
