The action for classical and consequently quantum N=1, D=4, supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is proven to be written as a BRST exact term. In order to show this, the space of fields in the theory must be enlarged to include an extrafield…
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 task of calculating operator dimensions in the planar limit of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory can be vastly simplified by mapping the dilatation generator to the Hamiltonian of an integrable spin chain. The Bethe ansatz has been used in…
We explore the realization of BRST symmetry in the non-Lorentzian Yang-Mills Lagrangian within the context of Galilean and Carrollian Yang-Mills theory. Firstly we demonstrate the nilpotent property of classical BRST transformations and…
An off-shell formulation for 6 and 10 dimensions simple supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is presented. While the fermionic fields couple to left action of S^3 and S^7 respectively, the auxiliary ones couple to right action (and vice…
The $\cal{N}=4$ supersymmetric spinning particle admits several consistent quantizations, related to the gauging of different subgroups of the $SO(4)$ $R$-symmetry on the worldline. We construct the background independent BRST quantization…
We associate vertex operator algebras to $(p,q)$-webs of interfaces in the topologically twisted $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory. Y-algebras associated to trivalent junctions are identified with truncations of…

We show that classical, non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories coupled to spin-1/2 and spin-0 elementary matter fields, in (3+1)-dimensional Minkowski space-time, possess exact structures that resemble integrability, with an infinite number…
In math.SG/0605587, we studied Yang-Mills functional on the space of connections on a principal G_R-bundle over a closed, connected, nonorientable surface, where G_R is any compact connected Lie group. In this sequel, we generalize the…
Five-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories are investigated from the viewpoint of random plane partitions. It is shown that random plane partitions are factorizable as q-deformed random partitions so that they admit…
Correlation functions in perturbative N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are examined in the Berenstein-Maldacena-Nastase (BMN) limit. We demonstrate that non-extremal four-point functions of chiral primary fields are ill-defined in that…
We revisit Atiyah and Bott's study of Morse theory for the Yang-Mills functional over a Riemann surface, and establish new formulas for the minimum codimension of a (non-semi-stable) stratum. These results yield the exact connectivity of…
Doubling a Yang-Mills field we apply the pattern which has been found to construct a "duality-symmetric" gravity with matter to the "duality-symmetric" Yang - Mills theory in five space-time dimensions. Constructing the action we conclude…
We establish renormalizability of the full spectral action for the Yang-Mills system on a flat 4-dimensional background manifold. Interpreting the spectral action as a higher-derivative gauge theory, we find that it behaves unexpectedly…
We construct a four dimensional Yang-Mills theory with ${\cal N}=4$ twisted supersymmetry whose classical vacua correspond to four dimensional anti-de Sitter space. The theory utilizes a complex gauge field whose real part is a spin…
We consider two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories on arbitrary Riemann surfaces. We introduce a generalized Yang-Mills action, which coincides with the ordinary one on flat surfaces but differs from it in its coupling to two-dimensional…
Working over a pseudo-Riemannian manifold, for each vector bundle with connection we construct a sequence of three differential operators which is a complex (termed a Yang-Mills detour complex) if and only if the connection satisfies the…
We consider the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of two dimensional Yang--Mills theory on general curved backgrounds. We compute the deformed partition function through an integral transformation over frame fields weighted by a Gaussian kernel. We…
We propose $N=2$ holomorphic Yang-Mills theory on compact K\"{a}hler manifolds and show that there exists a simple mapping from the $N=2$ topological Yang-Mills theory. It follows that intersection parings on the moduli space of…
