This paper establishes decay estimates near isolated singularities for $n$-dimensional Yang-Mills-Higgs fields defined on a fiber bundle ($n \geq 4$). These estimates yield a removable singularity theorem for Yang-Mills-Higgs fields under…

It is shown that the beta functions for four dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory without matter give integral curves on the moduli space some of which are geodesics of the natural metric on the moduli space. In particular the…

Recently we have proposed a set of variables for describing the infrared limit of four dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. here we extend these variables to the general case of four dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theory. We find that the…

The large-N limit of the two-dimensional non-local U$(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on an orientable and non-orientable surface with boundaries is studied. For the case which the holonomies of the gauge group on the boundaries are near the…

The Gibbons-Hawking ansatz provides a large family of circle-invariant hyperkaehler 4-manifolds, and thus Calabi-Yau 2-folds. In this setting, we prove versions of the Thomas conjecture on existence of special Lagrangian representatives of…

We investigate hermitian Yang--Mills connections for pullback vector bundles on blow-ups of K\"ahler manifolds along submanifolds. Under some mild asumptions on the graded object of a simple and semi-stable vector bundle, we provide a…
