M-theory compactified on S^7/Z_k allows for a four-dimensional, asymptotically AdS cosmology. The holographic dual consists of ABJM theory with a non-supersymmetric marginal deformation. At weak 't Hooft coupling the dual theory possesses a…
Reductions from six to four spacetime dimensions are considered for a class of supergravity models based on the six-dimensional Salam-Sezgin model, which is a chiral theory with a gauged U(1) R-symmetry and a positive scalar-field…
The question of whether the holomorphic collinear singularities of graviton amplitudes define a consistent chiral algebra has garnered much recent attention. We analyse a version of this question for infinitesimal perturbations around the…
We resolve the long-standing claim that regularisation by dimensional reduction (DR) fails to preserve supersymmetry in Super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories at three loops. Earlier results reported a mismatch between the Yukawa and ghost-gluon…
We investigate how the four-dimensional noncommutative open string/Yang-Mills theory behaves under a general non-perturbative quantum $SL(2,Z)$ symmetry transformation. We discuss this by considering D3 branes in a constant background of…
We discuss cosmological models involving homogeneous and isotropic Yang-Mills (YM) fields. Such models were proposed recently as an alternative to scalar models of cosmic acceleration. There exists a unique SU(2) YM configuration…
We study supersymmetry and self-duality in a four-dimensional space-time with the signature (2,2), that we call the Atiyah-Ward space-time. Dirac matrices and spinors, in particular Majorana-Weyl spinors, are investigated in detail. We…
This paper provides a new class of examples for the Koszul dualities established in~\cite{5}. We study quadratic monomial algebras from the perspective of Koszul duality, with particular emphasis on finitely presented and finitely…
We consider higher-spin extensions of self-dual Yang-Mills (HS-SDYM) and self-dual Gravity (HS-SDGR), which are also truncations of chiral higher-spin gravity. Higher-spin fields can consistently propagate on gravitational instantons and we…
We compute $e^{-AN}$ corrections to the Gross-Taylor 1/N expansion of the paritition function of two-dimensional SU(N) and U(N) Yang Mills theory. We find a very similar structure of mixing between holomorphic and anti-holomorphic sectors…
We describe a novel double scaling limit of large N Yang-Mills theory on a two-dimensional torus and its relation to the geometry of the principal moduli spaces of holomorphic differentials.
We first perform bosonic T-duality transformation on one of the marginal TsT (T-duality, shift, T-duality)-deformed $AdS_5\times S_5$ spacetime, which corresponds to 4D $\mathcal{N}=4$ non-commutative super Yang-Mills theory (NCSYM). We…
We solve the superspace Bianchi identities for ten-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory without imposing any kind of constraints apart from the standard conventional one. In this way we obtain a set of algebraic conditions on…
The space of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories exhibits an intricate structure of global one-form symmetries and $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ duality orbits. In this paper we study this structure from the point of view of the…
We show that the N=2 open string describes a theory of self-dual Yang Mills (SDYM) in (2,2) dimensions. The coupling to the closed sector is described by SDYM in a Kahler background, with the Yang-Mills fields providing a source term to the…
Let $A$ be an augmented differential graded algebra over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, and let $A^!=\mathbf{R}\mathrm{Hom}_A(k,k)$ be its Koszul dual algebra. Blumberg and Mandell showed that, under some finiteness conditions of $A$,…

Double Field Theory (DFT) can be constructed as the double copy of a Yang-Mills theory. In this work we extend this statement by including higher-derivative terms. Starting from a four-derivative extension of Yang-Mills whose double copy is…
The celestial $S$-algebra arose from a reinterpretation of collinear limits of the Yang-Mills S-matrix as OPEs in celestial holography. It was subsequently represented via asymptotic charge aspects defined in the Yang-Mills radiative phase…
