We consider an SU(4) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory spontaneously broken to $SO(4)$ by a scalar field in the $n\times n$ representation and the unbroken algebra invariant under Cartan automorphism. We obtain that $\mathbb Z_2$ monopoles in this…
We consider the spherically symmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills Fields on the Schwarzschild metric. Within the so called purely magnetic Ansatz we show that there exists a countable number of stationary solutions which are all nonlinearly unstable.
In this paper, we consider a dynamical system related to the Yang-Mills system for a field with gauge group SU(2). We solve this system in terms of genus two hyperelliptic functions and we show that it is algebraic completely integrable in…
Employing the nonabelian duality transformation, I derive the Gauge String form of certain D>=3 lattice Yang-Mills (YM_{D}) theories in the strong coupling (SC) phase. With the judicious choice of the actions, in D>=3 our construction…

The purpose of this study is to show that the exact solutions to Yang-Mills theory can occur in two-dimensional space-time. We show that the instability of the stationary solutions for the nonabelian gauge field theories questioned by the…

We perform a detailed study of the Yangian symmetry of smooth supersymmetric Maldacena-Wilson loops in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. This hidden symmetry extends the global superconformal symmetry present for these observables. A…
We study N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with gauge group SU(2) compactified to three dimensions on a circle of circumference beta. The eight fermion terms in the effective action on the Coulomb branch are determined exactly, for…
Phase and modulus of an energy- and pressure-free, composite and adjoint field in an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory are computed. This field is generated by trivial holonomy calorons of topological charge one. It possesses nontrivial $S_1$-winding…
Stability of Yang-Mills fields system in the background field is investigated basing on Toda criterion, Poincare sections and the values of the maximal Lyapunov exponents. The existence of the region of regular motion at low densities of…
We propose a reformulation of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in terms of new variables. These variables are appropriate for describing the theory in its infrared limit, and indicate that it admits knotlike configurations as stable solitons. As a…
We suggest that the gauge-invariant hedgehoglike structures in the Wilson loops are physically interesting degrees of freedom in the Yang--Mills theory. The trajectories of these ``hedgehog loops'' are closed curves corresponding to…
The Einstein-Yang-Mills equations are the source of many interesting solutions within general relativity, including families of particle-like and black hole solutions, and critical phenomena of more than one type. These solutions,…
In previous work constant magnetic field strength solutions for SU(2) gauge theory on a torus were found, which somewhat surprisingly turned out to be classically stable. This was called marginal stability, as moving along one of its…
Spin-charge separation in pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory was recently found to involve the dynamics of an O(3) non-linear sigma model and, seemingly, a Grassmannian non-linear sigma model. In this article we explicitly construct the…
We study a 4d gauge theory $U(1)^{N-1}\rtimes S_N$ obtained from a $U(1)^{N-1}$ theory by gauging a 0-form symmetry $S_N$. We show that this theory has a global continuous 2-category symmetry, whose structure is particularly rich for $N>2$.…
We study the one-loop renormalisation of 4d SU(N) Yang-Mills theory with $M$ adjoint representation scalar multiplets. We calculate the coupled one-loop renormalization group flows for this theory by developing an algebraic description,…
The product of gauge fields generated by the Yang-Mills gradient flow for positive flow times does not exhibit the coincidence-point singularity and a local product is thus independent of the regularization. Such a local product can…
