It is shown that the massive Yang-Mills theory is on mass-shell renormalizable. Thus the Standard Model of electroweak interactions can be modified by removing terms with the scalar field from the Lagrangian in the unitary gauge. The…
A four-dimensional ${\rm SU}(4)$ confining Yang-Mills field, coupled to a fundamental fermion field and a bi-fundamental scalar field, has excitations with spin-2, but no other quantum numbers. These spin-2 excitations can be light or can…
We discuss the problem of unitarity for Yang-Mills theory in the Landau gauge with a mass term a la Stueckelberg. We assume that the theory (non-renormalizable) makes sense in some subtraction scheme (in particular the Slavnov-Taylor…

In the paper, within the background field method, the renormalization and the gauge dependence is studied as for an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with multiplets of spinor and scalar fields. By extending the quantum action of the BV-formalism…
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 extend the general framework of perturbative quantum field theory developped for the pure Yang-Mills model to gravity. First we present a variant of the elimination procedure of the anomalies in the second order of perturbation theory.…
Effective field theory of massive Yang-Mills fields interacting with fermions is considered. Perturbative renormalizability in the sense of effective field theory is shown. It is argued that the limit of vanishing vector boson mass leads to…
Gravitational interactions of higher spin fields are generically plagued by inconsistencies. We present a simple framework that couples higher spins to a broad class of gravitational backgrounds (including Ricci flat and Einstein)…
We prove the renormalizability of the Curci-Ferrari model with and without auxiliary fields using BRST methods. In both cases we find 5 $Z$ factors instead of 3. We verify our results by explicit one loop calculations. We determine a set of…
We examine the renormalization of the first order formulation of Yang-Mills theory, by using the BRST idenities. These preserve the gauge invariance of the theory and enable a recursive proof of renormalizability to higher orders in…
The background gauge renormalization of the first order formulation of the Yang-Mills theory is studied by using the BRST identities. Together with the background symmetry, these identities allow for an iterative proof of renormalizability…
We suggest a new generalization of the $\mathrm{U}(n)$ Yang-Mills theory obtained by relaxing the condition of covariant constancy of the Hermitian form in the fibers, $\nabla_a g_{\alpha\beta'} \ne 0$. This theory is a simpler analogue of…
We give a new description of classical Yang-Mills theory by coupling a two-dimensional chiral CFT (which gives the tree-level S-matrix of Yang-Mills theory at genus zero) to a background non-abelian gauge field. The resulting model is…
