We apply the technique of Hamiltonian reduction for the construction of three-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric mechanics specified by the presence of a Dirac monopole. For this purpose we take the conventional ${\cal N}=4$…

The decomposition of correlation functions into conformal blocks is an indispensable tool in conformal field theory. For spinning correlators, non-trivial tensor structures are needed to mediate between the conformal blocks, which are…
Recently it has been proposed that the coefficient of the three-point function of the BMN operators in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is related to the three-string interactions in the pp-wave background. We calculate three-point…
We perform Monte Carlo calculation of correlation functions in 4d N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on R*S^3 in the planar limit. In order to circumvent the well-known problem of lattice SUSY, we adopt the idea of a novel large-N reduction, which…
The relation between the dilatation operator of N=4 Yang-Mills theory and integrable spin chains makes it possible to compute the one-loop anomalous dimensions of all operators in the theory. In this paper we show how to apply the…
We develop a compact representation of the one-loop n-point functions of all chiral primary operators in planar SU(N), N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in terms of tree-level disk correlation functions and the scalar one-loop box integral. As a…
We consider the double copy of massive Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions, whose decoupling limit is a nonlinear sigma model. The latter may be regarded as the leading terms in the low energy effective theory of a heavy Higgs model, in…
Recently, Yamanaka and Yamashita proposed the so-called positively homogeneous optimization problem, which includes many important problems, such as the absolute-value and the gauge optimizations. They presented a closed form of the dual…
The scalar-tensor theories of gravity in spacetime dimensions $D+1>2$ are studied. By doing Hamiltonian analysis, we obtain the geometrical dynamics of the theories from their Lagrangian. The Hamiltonian formalism indicates that the…
A gauge transformation provided by the three eigenfunctions of $\B^a(x) \cdot \B^b(x)$ (where $\B^a(x)$, with a=1,2,3, are the non-Abelian magnetic fields) exposes the topological configurations of the Yang-Mills fields. In particular, it…
We use the hexagon function bootstrap to compute the ratio function which characterizes the next-to-maximally-helicity-violating (NMHV) six-point amplitude in planar $\mathcal{N} = 4$ super-Yang-Mills theory at four loops. A powerful…
It is shown that classical nonsupersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4 dimensions is symmetric under a generalized dual transform which reduces to the usual dual *-operation for electromagnetism. The parallel phase transport $\tilde{A}_\mu(x)$…
We compute the number of triangulations of a convex $k$-gon each of whose sides is subdivided by $r-1$ points. We find explicit formulas and generating functions, and we determine the asymptotic behaviour of these numbers as $k$ and/or $r$…
After a short introduction on the theory of homogeneous algebras we describe the application of this theory to the analysis of the cubic Yang-Mills algebra, the quadratic self-duality algebras, their "super" versions as well as to some…
In order to obtain functional limit theorems for heavy tailed stationary processes arising from dynamical systems, one needs to understand the clustering patterns of the tail observations of the process. These patterns are well described by…
We give a unified division algebraic description of (D=3, N=1,2,4,8), (D=4, N=1,2,4), (D=6, N=1,2) and (D=10, N=1) super Yang-Mills theories. A given (D=n+2, N) theory is completely specified by selecting a pair (A_n, A_{nN}) of division…
We discuss recent results on two-point functions of chiral primary operators in {\cal N}=4 SU(N) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Our results give further support to the belief that such correlators are not renormalized to all orders in g…
We introduce a novel way to perform high-order computations in multi-Regge-kinematics in planar N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and generalize the existing factorization into building blocks at two loops to all loop orders. Afterwards,…
