We describe a ten dimensional supergravity geometry which is dual to a gauge theory that is non-supersymmetric Yang Mills in the infra-red but reverts to $N$=4 super Yang Mills in the ultra-violet. A brane probe of the geometry shows that…

We propose an approach that views U(N_c) Yang-Mills theory as the critical point of an induced gauge model on the lattice. Similar recent proposals based on the color-flavor transformation rely on taking the limit of an infinite number of…

A supersymmetric Yang-Mills system in (11,3) dimensions is constructed with the aid of two mutually orthogonal null vectors which naturally arise in a generalized spacetime superalgebra. An obstacle encountered in an attempt to extend this…

Recently, the {\it spacelike} part of the $SU(2)$ Yang--Mills equations has been identified with geometrical objects of a three--dimensional space of constant Riemann--Cartan curvature. We give a concise derivation of this Ashtekar type…
