This paper is aimed to investigate the strong $L^p$-closure $L_{\mathbb{Z}}^p(B)$ of the vector fields on the open unit ball $B\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ that are smooth up to finitely many integer point singularities. First, such strong closure…

For every given $p\in [1,+\infty)$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$ with $n\ge 1$, the authors identify the strong $L^p$-closure $L_{\mathbb{Z}}^p(D)$ of the class of vector fields having finitely many integer topological singularities on a domain $D$…

The space of Sobolev connections, as it has been introduced for studying the variation of Yang-Mills Lagrangian in the critical dimension $4$, happens not to be weakly sequentially complete in dimension larger than $4$. This is a major…

We study the weak continuity of two interrelated non-linear partial differential equations, the Yang-Mills equations and the Gau{\ss}-Codazzi-Ricci equations, involving $L^p$-integrable connections. Our key finding is that underlying…

A slice distance for the class of weak abelian Lp-bundles in 3 dimensions was introduced in a previous article in collaboration with Tristan Rivi\`ere, where it was used to prove the closure of such class of bundles for the weak…

We consider the Abelian Yang-Mills-Higgs functional, in the non-self dual scaling, on a complex line bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$. This functional is the natural generalisation of the Ginzburg-Landau model…

For analyzing stationary Yang-Mills connections in higher dimensions, one has to work with Morrey-Sobolev bundles and connections. The transition maps for a Morrey-Sobolev principal $G$-bundles are not continuous and thus the usual notion…

We compute the exact partition function for pure continuous Yang-Mills theory on the two-sphere in the large $N$ limit, and find that it exhibits a large $N$ third order phase transition with respect to the area $A$ of the sphere. The weak…

In this paper, we introduce an \alpha -flow for the Yang-Mills functional in vector bundles over four dimensional Riemannian manifolds, and establish global existence of a unique smooth solution to the \alpha -flow with smooth initial…

It is shown that the SO(3) gauge field configurations can be completely characterised by certain gauge invariant vector fields. The singularities of these vector fields describe the topological aspects of the gauge field configurations. The…

We analyze the partition function of two dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a family of surfaces of infinite genus. These surfaces have a recursive structure, which was used by one of us to compute the partition function that results in a…

Abelian theories in three dimensions can have linearly confining phases as a result of monopole-instantons, as shown, for SU(2) Yang-Mills theory broken to its abelian subgroup, by Polyakov. In this article the generalization of this phase…

We construct a three-dimensional vector field that exhibits positive energy flux at every Littlewood-Paley shell and has the best possible regularity in $L^p$-based spaces, $p \le 3$; in particular, it belongs to $H^{(\frac56)^-}$.

We show that the order three algebraic differential equation over ${\mathbb Q}$ satisfied by the analytic $j$-function defines a non-$\aleph_0$-categorical strongly minimal set with trivial forking geometry relative to the theory of…

It is proved that any countable topological vector space over a finite field $\mathbb F_p$ or, equivalently, any countable Abelian topological group of prime exponent has a closed discrete basis.

We study bubbling for sequences of Yang-Mills connections on closed four-manifolds and we derive a compatibility of Pohozaev type between the weak limit connection and the bubble formed at a concentration point, involving the Weyl tensor of…

Weakly constrained double field theory, in the sense of Hull and Zwiebach, captures the subsector of string theory on toroidal backgrounds that includes gravity, $B$-field and dilaton together with all of their massive Kaluza-Klein and…

In this article we prove the following version of the Weak-BAB conjecture for $3$-folds in char $p>5$: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1)$ and an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be a collection of klt…

This note corrects a mistake in Theorem~4.1 of https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aim.2021.107598 (arXiv:1901.03395). The error noted here does not affect any other results of loc. cit. To correct the error, here I prove a more general result…

We investigate weak approximation away from a finite set of places for a class of biquadratic fourfolds inside $\mathbb{P}^3 \times \mathbb{P}^2$, some of which appear in the recent work of Hassett--Pirutka--Tschinkel.
