T. Riviere proved an energy quantization for Yang-Mills fields defined on n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, when $n$ is larger than the critical dimension 4. More precisely, he proved that the defect measure of a weakly converging…
We prove that energy minimizing Yang-Mills connections on a compact $G_{2}$-manifold has holonomy equal to $G_{2}$ are $G_{2}$-instantons, subject to an extra condition on the curvature. Furthermore, we show that energy minimizing…
Given two Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N\subset\mathbb{R}^L$, we consider the energy concentration phenomena of the penalized energy functional $$E_{\epsilon}(u)=\int_M\frac{\vert\nabla u\vert^2}{2}+\frac{F(u)}{\epsilon^2},u\in…
On a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ we extend the known analytic results on Yang-Mills connections to the class of connections called $\Omega$-Yang-Mills connections, where $\Omega$ is a smooth, not necessarily closed, $(n-4)$-form.…

We consider Yang--Mills theory with a compact structure group $G$ on four-dimensional de Sitter space dS$_4$. Using conformal invariance, we transform the theory from dS$_4$ to the finite cylinder ${\cal I}\times S^3$, where ${\cal…

We prove parabolic versions of several known gap theorems in classical Yang-Mills theory. On an $\mathrm{SU}(r)$-bundle of charge $\kappa$ over the 4-sphere, we show that the space of all connections with Yang-Mills energy less than $4…
We develop a new method for proving regularity for small energy stationary solutions of coupled gauge field equations. Our results duplicate those of Tian--Tao [7] for the pure Yang Mills equations, but our proof is simpler, and obtains…

In this sequel to [arXiv:1412.4114], we prove an $L^{d/2}$ energy gap result for Yang-Mills connections on principal $G$-bundles, $P$, over arbitrary, closed, Riemannian, smooth manifolds of dimension $d\geq 2$. We apply our version of the…

We present a strategy for a non-perturbative determination of the finite renormalization constants of the energy-momentum tensor in the SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. The computation is performed by imposing on the lattice suitable Ward Identites…
The paper pursues two connected goals. Firstly, we establish the Li-Yau-Hamilton estimate for the heat equation on a manifold $M$ with nonempty boundary. Results of this kind are typically used to prove monotonicity formulas related to…
A local monotonicity formula for the Yang-Mills-Higgs flow on $G$-bundles over $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ ($n>4$) is proved. It is shown that the monotone quantity co\"incides on certain self-similar solutions with that appearing in existing…

We prove a conformally invariant estimate for the index of Schr\"odinger operators acting on vector bundles over four-manifolds, related to the classical Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum estimate. Applied to Yang-Mills connections we obtain a bound…
We study pure Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma\times S^2$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact Riemann surface, and invariance is assumed under rotations of $S^2$. It is well known that the self-duality equations in this set-up reduce to vortex…
This paper develops Yang-Mills flow on Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy. By analogy with the second-named author's thesis, we find that a supremum bound on a certain curvature component is sufficient to rule out finite-time…
We prove ultraviolet stable stability bounds for the pure Yang-Mills relativistic quantum theory in an imaginary-time, functional integral formulation. We consider the gauge groups $\mathcal G={\rm U}(N)$, ${\rm SU}(N)$ and let $d(N)$…
