We consider a spherically symmetric (magnetic) $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills field propagating on the exterior of the extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole. Taking advantage of the conformal symmetry, we reduce the problem to the study of the…
We investigated numerically dyon-like solutions of the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills system on a cylindrically symmetric space time with a cosmological constant. We find a new kind of behaviour not found in the spherically symmetric models. For…
Yang-Mills theory has extended well beyond its original role in describing the strong force and now emerges as an effective theory in condensed matter, ultracold atomic, and photonic systems. In these systems, the theory has been successful…
In the context of D-dimensional Euclidean gravity, we define the natural generalisation to D-dimensions of the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, as duality conditions on the curvature 2-form of a Riemannian manifold. Solutions to these…
We find a new property in $W^2$-conformal gravity in spherical symmetry. We demonstrate that the charge of the electromagnetic field varies with respect to the partial scaling symmetry (conformal transformations in subspaces of a spacetime)…
We sketch the development of effective theories for SU(2) and SU(3) Yang-Mills thermodynamics. The most important results are quoted and some implications for particle physics and cosmology are discussed.
We study a model of four reduced staggered fields transforming in the bifundamental representation of a $SU(2)\times SU(2)$ symmetry group where just one of the SU(2) factors is gauged. This field content and symmetries are similar to a…
In the present work we analyse $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory in two dimensions by means of lattice simulations. The theory arises as dimensional reduction of $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM theory in four dimensions. As in…
We consider a U(2) Yang-Mills theory on M x S_F^2 where M is a Riemannian manifold and S_F^2 is the fuzzy sphere. Using essentially the representation theory of SU(2) we determine the most general SU(2)-equivariant gauge field on M x S_F^2.…
We analyze the Hamiltonian time evolution of classical SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with a fundamental Higgs doublet on a spacial lattice. In particular, we study energy transfer and equilibration processes among the gauge and Higgs…
Supersymmetry is one of the possible scenarios for physics beyond the standard model. The building blocks of this scenario are supersymmetric gauge theories. In our work we study the $\mathcal{N}=1$ Super-Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with gauge…
An unusual four-dimensional generally covariant and supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory is described. The theory has propagating degrees of freedom, and is invariant under a local (left-handed) chiral supersymmetry, which is half the…
In oder to investigate quark confinement, we give a new reformulation of the $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on a lattice and present the results of the numerical simulations of the $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory on a lattice. The numerical…
Using the framework of quantum Riemannian geometry, we show that gravity on the product of spacetime and a fuzzy sphere is equivalent under minimal assumptions to gravity on spacetime, an $su_2$-valued Yang-Mills field $A_{\mu i}$ and…
We consider $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills on a circle (cylindrical space-time) and quantize the eigenvalues of the holonomy. In this way the Mandelstam identities associated with the holonomy are trivially solved. Furthermore we indicate that there…
We study pure Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma\times S^2$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact Riemann surface, and invariance is assumed under rotations of $S^2$. It is well known that the self-duality equations in this set-up reduce to vortex…
In this Letter we consider SU(2) Yang-Mills theory analysed in Cho-Faddeev-Niemi variables which remains invariant under local gauge transformations. The BRST symmetries of this theory is generalized by making the infinitesimal parameter…
We present results from lattice simulations of ${\cal N}=2$ super Yang-Mills theory in two dimensions. The lattice formulation we use was developed in \cite{2dpaper} and retains both gauge invariance and an exact (twisted) supersymmetry for…
It is possible to find different sets of local coordinates in the field space of Yang-Mills theories which implement Gauss' law manifestly for physical states. The singular points of the transformations to these gauge-invariant coordinates…
Three-dimensional Yang-Mills theory allows for a deformation quadratic in the field strengths which can not be integrated to a local action without auxiliary fields. Yet, its covariant divergence consistently vanishes after iterating the…
