A recent paper (arxiv.org:1810.00025) studied properties of a compactification of the moduli space of irreducible Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections on a hermitian bundle over a projective algebraic manifold. In this follow-up note, we show…
We study the commutative limit of the non-commutative maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions (N=4 SYM). The commutative limits of non-commutative spaces are important in particular in the applications of…

In this paper we consider an $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills field propagating in the $4+1$ dimensional wormhole spacetime. Assuming the spherically symmetric magnetic ansatz the problem reduces to a one dimensional non linear wave equation. This…
In this paper we introduce entropy-stability and F-stability for homothetically shrinking Yang-Mills solitons, employing entropy and second variation of $\mathcal{F}$-functional respectively. For a homothetically shrinking soliton which…
We construct and study the Yang-Mills measure in two dimensions. According to the informal description given by the physicists, it is a probability measure on the space of connections modulo gauge transformations on a principal bundle with…
D0-brane theory on a torus with a nonvanishing B field is embedded into a string theory in the weak coupling limit. It is shown that the usual supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a noncommutative torus can not be the whole story. The…
Asymptotic symmetries of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system with or without cosmological constant are explicitly worked out in a unified manner. In agreement with a recent conjecture, one finds a Virasoro-Kac-Moody type algebra not only in…
These notes are based on work done in collaboration with Frank Ferrari. We show how to determine the spectra of stable BPS states in $N=2$ supersymmetric $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theories that are asymptotically free, i.e. without and with…
If we consider the moduli space of flat connections of a non trivial principal SO(3)-bundle over a surface, then we can define a map from the set of perturbed closed geodesics, below a given energy level, into families of perturbed…
The coupling of a dilaton to the $SU(2)$-Yang-Mills field leads to interesting non-perturbative static spherically symmetric solutions which are studied by mixed analitical and numerical methods. In the abelian sector of the theory there…
We consider finite Morse index solutions to semilinear elliptic questions, and we investigate their smoothness. It is well-known that: - For $n=2$, there exist Morse index $1$ solutions whose $L^\infty$ norm goes to infinity. - For $n \geq…
In this paper we consider sequences of $p$-harmonic maps, $p>2$, from a closed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ into the $n$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ with uniform bounded energy. These are critical points of the energy $E_p(u)…
In this article, we study the analytical properties of the solutions of the complex Yang-Mills equations on a closed Riemannian four-manifold $X$ with a Riemannian metric $g$. The main result is that if $g$ is $good$ and the connection is…
The construction of a consistent measure for Yang-Mills is a precondition for an accurate formulation of non-perturbative approaches to QCD, both analytical and numerical. Using projective limits as subsets of Cartesian products of…
We present an expression for the leading-color (planar) four-loop four-point amplitude of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4-2 e dimensions, in terms of eight separate integrals. The expression is based on consistency of unitarity…
We obtain a formal solution of an integral equation for $q\bar q$ bound states, depending on a parameter \eta which interpolates between 't Hooft's (\eta=0) and Wu's (\eta=1) equations. We also get an explicit approximate expression for its…
The correspondence of the non-critical string theory and the Yang-Mills theory is examined according to the recent Polyakov's proposal, and two possible solutions of the bulk equations are addressed near the fixed points of the pure…
For a relative equilibrium of a symmetric simple mechanical system, if the Morse index of the corresponding amended potential is odd, whether the nullity is zero or not, it is linearly unstable. We also provide a sufficient condition for…
We will discuss an integrable structure for weakly coupled superconformal Yang-Mills theories, describe certain equivalences for the Yangian algebra, and fill a technical gap in our previous study of this subject.
