We study the Schr\"odinger functional coupling for lattice Yang-Mills theory coupled to an improved bosonic spinor field, which corresponds to QCD with minus two light flavors. This theory serves as a less costly testcase than QCD for the…

It has been recently proposed that string theory in the background of a plane wave corresponds to a certain subsector of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This correspondence follows as a limit of the AdS/CFT duality. As a…
Lattice scales defined using gradient flow are typically very precise, while also easy to calculate. However, different definitions of flows and operators can differ significantly, suggesting possible systematical effects. Using a subset of…

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 failure of the smoothness of flow maps for the $(1+3)$ dimensional Yang-Mills system in the Lorenz gauge by Knapp type counterexamples. This shows a gap between the scaling critical regularity exponents and the best attainable…
