We discuss the precise relation of the open N=2 string to a self-dual Yang-Mills (SDYM) system in 2+2 dimensions. In particular, we review the description of the string target space action in terms of SDYM in a ``picture hyperspace''…
In the context of class S theories and 4D/2D duality relations there, we discuss the skein relations of general topological defects on the 2D side which are expected to be counterparts of composite surface-line operators in 4D class S…
We report on progress in understanding how to construct color-dual multi-loop amplitudes. First we identify a cubic theory, semi-abelian Yang-Mills, that unifies many of the color-dual theories studied in the literature, and provides a…
We discuss chiral zero-rest-mass field equations on six-dimensional space-time from a twistorial point of view. Specifically, we present a detailed cohomological analysis, develop both Penrose and Penrose-Ward transforms, and analyse the…
Self-dual Yang-Mills instantons on $R^4$ correspond to algebraic ADHM data. The ADHM equations for $S^1$-symmetric instantons give a one-dimensional integrable lattice system, which may be viewed as an discretization of the Nahm equations.…
We find the exact matrix model description of two dimensional Yang-Mills theories on a cylinder or on a torus and with an arbitrary compact gauge group. This matrix model is the singlet sector of a $c =1$ matrix model where the matrix field…
We examine integrability of self-dual Yang-Mills system in the Higgs phase, with taking simpler cases of vortices and domain walls. We show that the vortex equations and the domain-wall equations do not have Painleve property. This fact…
We propose that chiral two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a Riemann surface is dual to a deformed stationary subsector of the Gromov-Witten theory of that Riemann surface. Firstly, we argue that the algebraic structure that underlies the…
Four-dimensional conformal fishnet theory is an integrable scalar theory which arises as a double scaling limit of $\gamma$-deformed maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills. We give a perturbative reformulation of $\gamma$-deformed…
The Cauchy matrix approach is developed to solve the SU(2) self-dual Yang--Mills equation. Starting from a Sylvester matrix equation coupled with certain dispersion relation for infinite coordinates, the self-dual Yang--Mills equation under…
The classical analysis of Kazakov and Kostov of the Makeenko-Migdal loop equation in two-dimensional gauge theory leads to usual partial differential equations with respect to the areas of windows formed by the loop. We extend this…
Different string theories in twistor space have recently been proposed for describing ${\cal N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills. In this paper, my Strings 2003 talk is reviewed in which a string theory in $(x,\theta)$ space was constructed for…
In this paper we aim to derive solutions for the SU($\mathcal{N}$) self-dual Yang-Mills (SDYM) equation with arbitrary $\mathcal{N}$. A set of noncommutative relations are introduced to construct a matrix equation that can be reduced to the…
We give exact solutions for a recently developed ~$N=1$~ locally supersymmetric self-dual gauge theories in $~(2+2)\-$dimensions. We give the exact solutions for an $~SL(2)$~ self-dual Yang-Mills multiplet and what we call ``self-dual…
Some aspects of the multidimensional soliton geometry are considered. It is shown that some simples (2+1)-dimensional equations are exact reductions of the Self-Dual Yang-Mills equation or its higher hierarchy.
Twistor correspondences for R-invariant indefinite self-dual conformal structures on R^4 are established explicitly. These correspondences are written down by using a natural integral transform from functions on a two dimensional cylinder…
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…
Recently a powerful duality between color and kinematics has been proposed for integrands of scattering amplitudes in quite general gauge theories. In this paper the duality proposal is extended to the more general class of gauge theory…
