The straightforward description of q-deformed systems leads to transition amplitudes that are not numerically valued. To give physical meaning to these expressions without introducing {\it ad hoc} remedies, one may exploit an "internal"…

We review the basic elements of the geometrical formalism for description of gauge fields and the theory of invariant connections, and their applications to the coset space dimensional reduction of Yang-Mills theories. We also discuss the…
The quantum of action $\hbar$, multiplying in certain powers perturbative vertices in 4D gauge theory, is related to the action of just-not-resolved selfdual and thermal gauge field configurations, calorons and anticalorons, of charge…
We give an introduction to renormalisation, focusing first on a pedagogical description of fundamental concepts of the procedure and its features, then we introduce the renormalisation group and its equations. We discuss then the case of…
The infrared structure of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is studied by means of lattice gauge simulations using a new constrained cooling technique. This method reduces the action while all Polyakov lines on the lattice remain unchanged. In…
We study the response of confining gauge theory to the external electric field by using holographic Yang-Mills theories in the large $N_c$ limit. Although the theories are in the confinement phase, we find a transition from the insulator to…
Functional Renormalization Group Equations constitute a powerful tool to encode the perturbative and non-perturbative properties of a physical system. We present an algorithm to systematically compute the expansion of such flow equations in…
The holographic gauge/gravity duality provides an explicit reduction of quantum field theory (QFT) calculations in the semi-classical large-$N$ limit to sets of `gravitational' differential equations whose analysis can reveal all details of…
The continued development of models that propose the existence of fractional topological objects in the Yang-Mills vacuum has called for a quantitative method to study the topological structure of $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ gauge theory. We present…
The Yang--Mills gradient flow and its extension to the fermion field provide a very general method to obtain renormalized observables in gauge theory. The method is applicable also with non-perturbative regularization such as lattice. The…
We investigate the implications of coupling a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) to Yang-Mills theory with $SU(N)$ gauge group in the context of the IR-renormalon problem. Coupling a TQFT to QFT does not change the local dynamics and…
The background gauge renormalization of the first order formulation of the Yang-Mills theory is studied by using the BRST identities. Together with the background symmetry, these identities allow for an iterative proof of renormalizability…
In this paper we investigate the possibility whether, in the extreme limit of high energies and large transverse distances, reggeon field theory might serve as an effective theory of high energy scattering for strong interactions. We…

We construct a theory of fields living on continuous geometries with fractional Hausdorff and spectral dimensions, focussing on a flat background analogous to Minkowski spacetime. After reviewing the properties of fractional spaces with…
