Classical vacuum - pure gauge - solutions of Euclidean two-dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theories are studied. Topologically non-trivial vacua are found in a class of gauge group elements isomorphic to $S_2$. These solutions are unexpectedly…
Coulomb gauge Yang-Mills theory is considered within the first order formalism. It is shown that the action is invariant under both the standard BRS transform and an additional component. The Ward-Takahashi identity arising from this…
We consider theories with gauged chiral fermions in which there are abelian anomalies, and no nonabelian anomalies (but there may be nonabelian gauge fields present). We construct an associated theory that is gauge invariant,…
In the framework of a hamiltonian nonperturbative approach we show that after demanding current conservation together with the Gauss constraints at some initial time in a nonabelian Nambu model, we recover the corresponding Yang-Mills…
We investigate nonperturbative effects in N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric theories using a relation between perturbative and exact anomalies as a starting point. For N=2 supersymmetric SU(n) Yang-Mills theory we derive the general structure of…
We consider the massless supersymmetric vector multiplet in a purely quantum framework and propose a power counting formula. Then we prove that the interaction Lagrangian for a massless supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theory (SUSY-QCD) is…
In this paper, I show that a Yang-Mills force with a U(1)$\timesSU(2)\times$SU(2) group symmetry predicts solar system observations of gravitational behavior as well as binary pulsar precession provided that mass is redefined as intrinsic…
We analyze the symmetry group of massive Yang-Mills theories and their quantization strongly motivated by an already proposed alternative to the Standard Model of electroweak interactions without Higgs. In these models the mass generation…

We consider extension of some established techniques of study of tensor fields on Lorentzian manifolds of arbitrary dimension to non-Abelian gauge covariant fields. These are then applied to study of gauge fields with vanishing scalar…
In Yang-Mills theory massless point sources lead naturally to shock-wave configurations. Their magnetic counterparts endow the vacuum of the four-dimensional compact abelian model with a Coulomb-gas behaviour whose physical implications are…
We construct the gauge-invariant electric and magnetic charges in Yang-Mills theory coupled to cosmological General Relativity (or any other geometric gravity), extending the flat spacetime construction of Abbott and Deser. For…
An efficient way of resolving Gauss' law in Yang-Mills theory is presented by starting from the projected gauge invariant partition function and integrating out one spatial field variable. In this way one obtains immediately the description…
We consider the general framework of perturbative quantum field theory for the pure Yang-Mills model developed in [9] and prove that the tree contributions do not give anomalies. We will provide a more general form of this gauge invariance…
Continuous dual symmetry in electrodynamics, Yang-Mills theory and gravitation is investigated. Dual invariant which leads to badly nonlinear motion equations is chosen as a Lagrangian of the pure classical dual nonlinear electrodynamics.…
A closed form of the Picard-Fuchs equations for N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with massless hypermultiplet are obtained for classical Lie gauge groups. We consider any number of massless matter in fundamental representation so as…
In order to eliminate gauge variant degrees of freedom we study the way to introduce gauge invariant fields in pure non-Abelian Yang-Mills theory. Our approach is based on the use of the gauge-invariant but path-dependent variables…
We use the SU(2) 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole configuration, and its BPS version, to test the integral equations of the Yang-Mills theory. Those integral equations involve two (complex) parameters which do not appear in the differential…
