We consider the Hermitian Yang-Mills (instanton) equations for connections on vector bundles over a 2n-dimensional K\"ahler manifold X which is a product Y x Z of p- and q-dimensional Riemannian manifold Y and Z with p+q=2n. We show that in…

We investigate asymptotic behaviors of the strong coupling limit in the N=2 supersymmetric non-commutative Yang-Mills theory. The strong coupling behavior is quite different from the commutative one since the non-commutative dual U(1)…

In this paper, we define a family of functionals generalizing the Yang-Mills-Higgs functional on a closed Riemannian manifold. Then we prove the short time existence of the corresponding gradient flow by a gauge fixing technique. The lack…

The equivalence of the anti-selfduality Yang-Mills equations on the 4-dimensional orientable Riemannian manifold and Laplace equations for some infinite dimensional Laplacians is proved. A class of modificated Levy Laplacians parameterized…

An existence and uniqueness result, up to fattening, for a class of crystalline mean curvature flows with natural mobility is proved. The results are valid in any dimension and for arbitrary, possibly unbounded, initial closed sets. The…

We discuss various differences in the instanton-based calculations of the $\beta$ functions in theories such as Yang-Mills and $\mathbb{CP}(N\!-\!1)$ on one hand, and $\lambda\phi^4$ theory with Symanzik's sign-reversed prescription for the…

We classify finite energy harmonic 2-forms on the asymptotically flat gravitational instanton constructed by Chen and Teo. We prove that every $U(1)$-bundle admits a unique anti-self-dual Yang-Mills instanton (up to gauge equivalence) which…

We present our study of a set of solutions to the $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills equations of motion with fractional topological charge. The configurations are obtained numerically by minimizing the action with gradient flow techniques on a torus of…

We study development of singularities for the spherically symmetric Yang-Mills equations in $d+1$ dimensional Minkowski spacetime for $d=4$ (the critical dimension) and $d=5$ (the lowest supercritical dimension). Using combined numerical…

We examine the restoration of the residual gauge symmetry in the Yang-Mills theory to be regarded as a confinement criterion. For this purpose we restrict the four-dimensional $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills instantons to those with spatial spherical…

Anti-self-dual (ASD) solutions to the Yang-Mills equation (or instantons) over an anti-self-dual four manifold, which are invariant under an appropriate action of a three dimensional Lie group, give rise, via twistor construction, to…

We study both analytically and numerically a coupled system of spherically symmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills-dilaton equation in 3+1 Minkowski space-time. It has been found that the system admits a hidden scale invariance which becomes transparent…

We show that the non-perturbative dynamics of $\mathcal{N}=2$ super Yang-Mills theories in a self-dual $\Omega$-background and with an arbitrary simple gauge group is fully determined by studying renormalization group equations of vevs of…

A recent paper (arxiv.org:1810.00025) studied properties of a compactification of the moduli space of irreducible Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections on a hermitian bundle over a projective algebraic manifold. In this follow-up note, we show…

We study at the classical and quantum mechanical level the time-dependent Yang-Mills theory that one obtains via the generalisation of discrete light-cone quantisation to singular homogeneous plane waves. The non-Abelian nature of this…

We investigate the long-time dynamics for the global solution of the $SO(4)$-equivariant Yang-Mills heat flow (YMHF) with structure group $SU(2)$ in space dimension $4$. For a class of initial data with specific decay at spatial infinity,…

In this paper, we prove a convergence theorem for sequences of Einstein Yang-Mills systems on $U(1) $-bundles over closed $n$-manifolds with some bounds for volumes, diameters, $L^{2}$-norms of bundle curvatures and $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$-norms…

The non-perturbative behavior of the N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is both highly non-trivial and tractable. In the last three years the valuable progress was achieved in the instanton counting, the direct evaluation of the…

We investigate Yang-Mills instantons on a 7-dimensional manifold of G_2 holonomy. By proposing a spherically symmetric ansatz for the Yang-Mills connection, we have ordinary differential equations as the reduced instanton equation, and give…

We extend our earlier work on anomalies in the space of coupling constants to four-dimensional gauge theories. Pure Yang-Mills theory (without matter) with a simple and simply connected gauge group has a mixed anomaly between its one-form…
