Here we study problems related to the proportions of zeros, especially simple and distinct zeros on the critical line, of Dedekind zeta functions. We obtain new bounds on a counting function that measures the discrepancy of the zeta…

We compute $1/\lambda$ corrections to the four-point functions of half-BPS operators in $SU(N)$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory at large $N$ and large 't Hooft coupling $\lambda=g_\text{YM}^2 N$ using two methods. Firstly, we relate…

We construct static solutions to a SU(2) Yang--Mills (YM) dilaton model in 4+1 dimensions subject to bi-azimuthal symmetry. The YM sector of the model consists of the usual YM term and the next higher order term of the YM hierarchy, which…

The finiteness properties of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are reanalyzed both in the component formulation and using N=1 superfields, in order to discuss some subtleties that emerge in the computation of gauge dependent…

We consider generalized self-duality equations for U(2r) Yang-Mills theory on R^{4k} with quaternionic structure and self-dual Moyal deformation. We employ the extended ADHM method in 4k dimensions to construct new noncommutative…

We study the \N=4 SYM theory with SU(N) gauge group in the large N limit, deformed by giving equal mass to the four adjoint fermions. With this modification, a potential is dynamically generated for the six scalars in the theory, \phi^i. We…

Seiberg-Witten solutions of four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories possess rich but involved integrable structures. The goal of this paper is to show that an isomonodromy problem provides a unified framework for understanding those…

We construct a classical solution of an Einstein-Yang-Mills system with a fourth order term with respect to the field strength of the Yang-Mills field. The solution provides a spontaneous compactification proposed by Cremmer and Scherk;…

We perform a series of dimensional reductions of the 6d, $\mathcal{N}=(2,0)$ SCFT on $S^2\times\Sigma\times I\times S^1$ down to 2d on $\Sigma$. The reductions are performed in three steps: (i) a reduction on $S^1$ (accompanied by a…

Three-dimensional Yang-Mills theory allows for a deformation quadratic in the field strengths which can not be integrated to a local action without auxiliary fields. Yet, its covariant divergence consistently vanishes after iterating the…
