We present a lattice formulation of noncommutative Yang-Mills theory in arbitrary even dimensionality. The UV/IR mixing characteristic of noncommutative field theories is demonstrated at a completely nonperturbative level. We prove a…
The spectrum of particles in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is expected to contain a spin 1/2 bound state of gluons and gluinos, the gluino-glue particle. We study the mass of this particle in softly broken supersymmetric Yang-Mills…
In this article, we construct two one-parameter families of properly embedded minimal surfaces in a three-dimensional Lie group $\widetilde{E(2)}$, which is the universal covering of the group of rigid motions of Euclidean plane endowed…
The well-known Yang-Mills theory with one $ S^{1} / Z_{2}$ universal extra dimension (UED) is generalized to an arbitrary number of spatial extra dimensions through a novel compactification scheme. In this paper, the Riemannian flat based…
In this paper, we extend results connecting quantum groups to spherical Whittaker functions on metaplectic covers of $GL_r(F)$, for $F$ a nonarchimedean local field. Brubaker, Buciumas, and Bump showed that for a certain metaplectic…
Previous path integral treatments of Yang-Mills on a Riemann surface automatically sum over principal fiber bundles of all possible topological types in computing quantum expectations. This paper extends the path integral formulation to…
We compute the two-loop result for the null pentagonal Wilson loop with a Lagrangian insertion (normalized by the Wilson loop without insertion) in planar, maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This finite observable is closely…
We define supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on an arbitrary two-dimensional lattice (polygon decomposition) with preserving one supercharge. When a smooth Riemann surface $\Sigma_g$ with genus $g$ emerges as an appropriate continuum limit of…
We show how the Hamiltonian lattice loop representation can be cast straightforwardly in the path integral formalism. The procedure is general for any gauge theory. Here we present in detail the simplest case: pure compact QED. We also…

Inspired by Vershik and Okounkov's inductive and Lie-theoretic approach to the representation theory of the symmetric group, we extend their point of view to reducible $S_n$-modules. Using induced representations along Young's lattice, we…
In the planar N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at weak coupling, we perform the first analytic computation of a two-loop eight-edged Wilson loop embedded into the boundary of AdS3. Its remainder function is given as a function of…
We study the density of polynomials in $H^2(E,\varphi)$, the space of square integrable functions with respect to $e^{-\varphi}dm$ and holomorphic on the interior of $E$ in $\mathbb{C}$, where $\varphi$ is a subharmonic function and $dm$ is…
A first-order, confinement/deconfinement phase transition appears in the finite temperature behavior of many non-Abelian gauge theories. These theories play an important role in proposals for completion of the Standard Model of particle…
We study the spectrum of anomalous dimensions of operators dual to giant graviton branes. The operators considered belong to the su$(2|3)$ sector of ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory, have a bare dimension $\sim N$ and are a linear…
The general construction of lattice (co)homology assigns to a lattice $\mathbb{Z}^r$ and a weight function $w:\mathbb{Z}^r \to \mathbb{Z}$ a bigraded $\mathbb{Z}[U]$-module $\mathbb{H}_*$. The weight function $w$ is often obtained from some…
Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ be probability spaces, let $X$ be their direct product, let $\phi_1, \ldots, \phi_m: X \longrightarrow {\Bbb C}$ be random variables, each depending only on a few coordinates of a point $x=(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$, and let…
We study double-winding Wilson loops in $SU(N)$ lattice Yang-Mills gauge theory by using both strong coupling expansions and numerical simulations. First, we examine how the area law falloff of a ``coplanar'' double-winding Wilson loop…
We give the cumulative distribution functions, the expected values, and the moments of weighted lattice polynomials when regarded as real functions of independent random variables. Since weighted lattice polynomial functions include…
Reduced models are matrix integrals believed to be related to the large N limit of gauge theories. These integrals are known to simplify further when the number of matrices D (corresponding to the number of space-time dimensions in the…
