We determine the gluino condensate $< \Tr \lambda^2 >$ in the pure ${\cal N}=1$ super Yang-Mills theory (SYM) for the classical gauge groups $SU(r+1)$, $SO(2r+1)$, $USp(2r)$ and $SO(2r)$, by deforming the pure ${\cal N}=2$ SYM theory with…
Supersymmetric Yang Mills theory is directly accessible to lattice simulations using current methodology, and can provide a non-trivial check of recent exact results in SQCD. In order to tune the lattice simulation to the supersymmetric…
We study the sypersymmetric pure Yang-Mills theory with semisimple Lie groups. We show that the general form of the gluino condensate is determined solely by the symmetries of the theory and it is in disagreement with the recently proposed…
The spectrum of particles in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is expected to contain a spin 1/2 bound state of gluons and gluinos, the gluino-glue particle. We study the mass of this particle in softly broken supersymmetric Yang-Mills…

We present the current results of our simulations of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a lattice. The masses of the gluino-glue particle, the a-eta-prime, the a-f0 meson, and the scalar glueball are obtained at finer lattice spacing…

In $\mathcal{N}$=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory the superpartner of the gluon is the gluino, which is a spin 1/2 Majorana particle in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. Combining three gluinos, it is possible to form colour…
$\mathcal{N} = 1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory describes gluons interacting with gluinos, which are spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Majorana particles in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. In addition to glueballs and mesonic bound…
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is in several respects different from QCD and pure Yang-Mills theory. Therefore, a reinvestigation of the scales, at which finite size effects and lattice artifacts become relevant, is necessary. Both,…
We argue that in the pure N=1 Super Yang-Mills theory gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken to the maximal Abelian subgroup. In particular, colored gluino condensate is nonzero. It invalidates, in a subtle way, the so-called…
We analyze the gaugino condensation in the effective theory for N=1 SU(N) Supersymmetric QCD with $N_{f}$ flavors. It is known that taking the vacuum expectation value of the matter field to be infinite, we can show that gaugino…
The spectrum of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, calculated on the lattice, is presented. The masses have been determined on three different lattice spacings and extrapolated towards vanishing gluino mass. We present the extrapolation…
Supersymmetry provides a well-established theoretical framework for extensions of the standard model of particle physics and the general understanding of quantum field theories. We summarise here our investigations of N=1 supersymmetric…
We compare gap equation predictions for the spontaneous breaking of global symmetries in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to nonperturbative results from holomorphic effective action techniques. In the theory without matter fields, both…
We present the first nonperturbative large-$N$ calculation of the $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric (SUSY) $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ Yang$-$Mills gluino condensate obtained by means of numerical simulations of the lattice-discretized theory, exploiting…
Using Ward identities of N=1/2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, we show that while the partition function and antichiral gluino condensates remain invariant under the $C$ deformation, chiral gluino correlators can get contributions from…
It is shown that there is no chirally symmetric vacuum state in the {cal N}=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The values of the gluino condensate and the vacuum energy density are found out through a direct instanton calculation. A…
Adding a gluino mass term to N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory breaks supersymmetry softly. In order to approach the supersymmetric continuum limit in numerical simulations with the Wilson action, the bare gluino mass has to be tuned to…
The analysis in previous publications of the instanton constraints required to produce a finite action of the theory is carried out also for N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.
