Weighted mean value identities over balls are considered for harmonic functions and their derivatives. Logarithmic and other weights are involved in these identities for functions. Some applications of weighted identities are presented.…

We consider N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with SU(N) gauge group at large N and at finite temperature on a spatial S^3. We show that, at finite weak 't Hooft coupling, the theory is naturally described as a two dimensional Coulomb…

In this thesis, we study the all same helicity loop amplitudes in self-dual Yang-Mills and self-dual gravity. These amplitudes have long been conjectured to be interpreted as an anomaly and are recently linked to the UV divergence of…

It is well-known that degree two finite field extensions can be equipped with a Hermitian-like structure similar to the extension of the complex field over the reals. In this contribution, using this structure, we develop a modular…

We study the regularization and renormalization of the Yang-Mills theory in the framework of the manifestly invariant formalism, which consists of a higher covariant derivative with an infinitely many Pauli-Villars fields. Unphysical…

In the high spin limit the minimal anomalous dimension of (fixed) twist operators in the $sl(2)$ sector of planar ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory expands as $\gamma(g,s,L)=f(g) \ln s + f_{sl}(g,L) + \sum \limits_{n=1}^\infty…

We investigate single-valued polylogarithms in two complex variables, which are relevant for the seven-point remainder function in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory in the multi-Regge regime. After constructing these two-dimensional…

In the context of D-dimensional Euclidean gravity, we define the natural generalisation to D-dimensions of the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, as duality conditions on the curvature 2-form of a Riemannian manifold. Solutions to these…
