We review the Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization procedure for Yang--Mills theory on a 2-point space.
A new fomulation of the Yang-Mills theory which allows to avoid the problem of Gribov ambiguity of the gauge fixing is proposed.
We study the Gribov problem within a Hamiltonian formulation of pure Yang-Mills theory. For a particular gauge fixing, a finite volume modification of the axial gauge, we find an exact characterization of the space of gauge-inequivalent…
We review recent results on the derivation of a global path integral density for Yang-Mills theory. Based on a generalization of the stochastic quantization scheme and its geometrical interpretation we first recall how locally a modified…
We discuss the construction of the physical configuration space for Yang-Mills quantum mechanics and Yang-Mills theory on a cylinder. We explicitly eliminate the redundant degrees of freedom by either fixing a gauge or introducing gauge…
We study a model of quantum Yang-Mills theory with a finite number of gauge invariant degrees of freedom. The gauge field has only a finite number of degrees of freedom since we assume that space-time is a two dimensional cylinder. We…
The two-point gauge correlation function in Yang--Mills--Chern--Simons theory in three dimensional Euclidean space is analysed by taking into account the non-perturbative effects of the Gribov horizon. In this way, we are able to describe…
Gauge fixing in general is incomplete, such that one solves some of the gauge constraints, quantizes, then imposes any residual gauge symmetries (Gribov copies) on the wavefunctions. While the Fadeev-Popov determinant keeps track of the…
We show that the Dyson-Schwinger set of equations for the Yang-Mills theory can be exactly solved till the two-point function. This is obtained given a set of nonlinear waves solving the classical equations of motion. Translation invariance…
Based on a generalization of the stochastic quantization scheme recently a modified Faddeev-Popov path integral density for the quantization of Yang-Mills theory was derived, the modification consisting in the presence of specific finite…
One of the main open problems of mathematical physics is to consistently quantize Yang-Mills gauge theory. If such a consistent quantization were to exist, it is reasonable to expect a ``Wightman reconstruction theorem,'' by which a Hilbert…
We develop a new operator quantization scheme for gauge theories where no gauge fixing for gauge fields is needed. The scheme allows one to avoid the Gribov problem and construct a manifestly Lorentz invariant path integral that can be used…
A new approach to gauge fixed Yang-Mills theory is derived using the Polyakov-Susskind projection techniques to build gauge invariant states. In our approach, in contrast to the Faddeev-Popov method, the Gribov problem does not prevent the…
We perform the dual transformation of the Yang-Mills theory in d=3 dimensions using the Wilson action on the cubic lattice. The dual lattice is made of tetrahedra triangulating a 3-dimensional curved manifold but embedded into a flat…
We deepen the understanding of the quantization of the Yang-Mills field by showing that the concept of gauge fixing in 4 dimensions is replaced in the 5-dimensional formulation by a procedure that amounts to an $A$-dependent gauge…
In this work, the quantization of the Yang-Mills theory is worked out by means of Dirac's canonical quantization method, using the generalized Coulomb gauge fixing conditions. Following the construction of the matrix composed of all the…
We report on the work presented in Phys. Lett. B712 (2012) 97, where a new one-parameter family of Landau gauges has been proposed for Yang-Mills theories, inspired by an analogy with disordered systems in condensed matter physics. This is…
Some nonperturbative aspects of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories in four dimensions, quantized in the Landau gauge, are analytically studied. In particular, we investigate the dynamical mass generation for the gluons due to the presence of…
The kinematics of SL(2,R) Yang-Mills theory on a circle is considered, for reasons that are spelled out. The gauge transformations exhibit hyperbolic fixed points, and this results in a physical configuration space with a non-Hausdorff…
The quantization of Yang-Mills field theories requires the introduction of a gauge fixing which leads to a violation of the Local Gauss Law described by the so-called Gauss operator. We discuss the local quantizations of Yang-Mills theories…
