A search for supersymmetry anomalies requires an examination of the BRS cohomology of supersymmetric Yang-Mills coupled to chiral matter, and the physically interesting (on-shell) anomalies are those which cannot be eliminated using the…
We investigate the instability of classical Yang-Mills field in an expanding geometry under a color magnetic background field within the linear regime. We consider homogeneous, boost-invariant and time-dependent color magnetic fields…
We consider the ``metric-affine-like'' generalization of the Yang-Mills theory (mal-YM) which we first proposed earlier. In this model, the connection is no longer assumed to be compatible with the Hermitian form in the fibers. As a…
In this work we investigate symmetry breaking in the presence of a turbulent environment. The transition from a symmetric state to a symmetry-breaking state is demonstrated using two examples: (i) the transition of a two-dimensional flow to…
It is known that the supermultiplet of beta-deformations of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be described in terms of the exterior product of two adjoint representations of the superconformal algebra. We present a…
Motivated by the search for a space-time supersymmetric extension of the N=2 string, we construct a particle model which, upon quantization, describes (abelian) self-dual super Yang-Mills in 2+2 dimensions. The local symmetries of the…
Tree-level scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory have recently been shown to transform covariantly with respect to a 'dual' superconformal symmetry algebra, thus extending the conventional superconformal symmetry algebra…
We show that the approaches to integrable systems via 4d Chern-Simons theory and via symmetry reductions of the anti-self-dual Yang-Mills equations are closely related, at least classically. Following a suggestion of Kevin Costello, we…
A strict positivity of the ground-state energy is a necessary and sufficient condition for spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. This ground-state energy may be directly determined from the expectation value of the Hamiltonian in the…
Yang-Mills theory in the first order formalism appears as the deformation of a topological field theory, the pure BF theory. In this approach new non local observables are inherited from the topological theory and the operators entering the…
A geometrization of the Yang-Mills field, by which an SU(2) gauge theory becomes equivalent to a 3-space geometry - or optical system - is examined. In a first step, ambient space remains Euclidean and current problems on flat space can be…
The Weyl$-$Yang gravitational gauge theory is investigated in the structure of a pure higher-dimensional non-Abelian Kaluza$-$Klein background. We construct the dimensionally reduced field equations and stress-energy-momentum tensors as…
Doubling a Yang-Mills field we apply the pattern which has been found to construct a "duality-symmetric" gravity with matter to the "duality-symmetric" Yang - Mills theory in five space-time dimensions. Constructing the action we conclude…
The dynamics of abelian vector and antisymmetric tensor gauge fields can be described in terms of twisted self-duality equations. These first-order equations relate the p-form fields to their dual forms by demanding that their respective…
Yang-Mills fields are an important part of the non-Abelian space theory describing the properties of quark-gluon plasma. The dynamics of the classical fields are given by the Hamiltonian equations of motion, which contain the member of the…
Entanglement asymmetry has emerged as a powerful tool for characterizing symmetry breaking in quantum many-body systems. In this Letter, we explore how symmetry is dynamically broken through the lens of entanglement asymmetry in two…
We investigate dynamics of the homogeneous time-dependent SU(2) Yang-Mills fields governed by the non-Abelian Born-Infeld lagrangian which arises in superstring theory as a result of summation of all orders in the string slope parameter…
Recently it has been argued that tree-level scattering amplitudes in N=4 Yang-Mills theory are uniquely determined by a careful study of their superconformal and Yangian symmetries. However, at one-loop order these symmetries are known to…
Tree level scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory are almost, but not exactly invariant under the free action of the N=4 superconformal algebra. What causes the non-invariance is the holomorphic anomaly at poles where external…
The dynamics of strongly interacting particles are governed by Yang-Mills (Y-M) theory, which is a natural generalization of Maxwell Electrodynamics (ED). Its quantized version is known as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and has been very well…
