In this paper we present some new equations which we call Yang-Mills-Proca equations (or generalized Proca equations). This system of equations is a generalization of Proca equation and Yang-Mills equations and it is not gauge invariant. We…

We prove that static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat, regular solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations are unstable for arbitrary gauge groups, at least for the ``generic" case. This conclusion is derived without explicit…

The gravitational instability of Yang-Mills cosmologies is numerically studied with the hamiltonian formulation of the spherically symmetric Einstein-Yang-Mills equations with SU(2) gauge group. On the short term, the expansion dilutes the…

For gauge groups SO$(n{+}1)$, SU$(m{+}1)$ and Sp$(\ell{+}1)$, we construct equivariant Yang-Mills solutions on de Sitter space in $n{+}1$, $2(m{+}1)$ and $4(\ell{+}1)$ spacetime dimensions. The latter is conformally mapped to a finite…

Exact solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation in an external non-Abelian gauge field with an SU(N) symmetry group have been obtained. The external field is a solution of the Yang-Mills equations and describes a plane wave on the light cone.…

We prove the internal inconsistency of the supersymmetric Wess-Zumino model. Our proof is based on three assumptions. The first assumption is that in the full theory the structure of counter temcs coincides with the structure of the counter…

We provide N=1 Super Yang-Mills theory in the Wess-Zumino gauge with mass terms for the supersymmetric partners of the gauge fields and of the matter fields, together with a supersymmetric mass term for the fermionic matter fields. All mass…

We use the well-known Bogomolny's equations, in general coordinate system, for BPS monopoles and dyons in the $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills-Higgs model to obtain an explicit form of BPS Lagrangian density under the BPS Lagrangian method. We then…

In the standard formulation of relativistic quantum field theory, a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded structure is assumed to realize locality and the boson-fermion dichotomy. While $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-graded extensions are known to be allowed at the…

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…
