In the pure large-N Yang-Mills theory there is a quasi-BPS sector that is exactly solvable at large N. It follows an exact beta function and the glueball spectrum in this sector. The main technical tool is a new holomorphic loop equation…

We describe the harmonic superspace formulation of the Witten-Manin supertwistor correspondence for N=3 extended super Yang-Mills theories. The essence is that on being sufficiently supersymmetrised (up to the N=3 extension), the Yang-Mills…

We study the space of periodic solutions of the elliptic $\sinh$-Gordon equation by means of spectral data consisting of a Riemann surface $Y$ and a divisor $D$. We show that the space $M_g^{\mathbf{p}}$ of real periodic finite type…

We construct, to the first two non-trivial orders, the next conserved charge in the su(2|3) sector of N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory. This represents a test of integrability in a sector where the interactions change the number of sites of the…

The compactification of five dimensional N=2 SUSY Yang-Mills (YM) theory onto a circle provides a four dimensional YM model with N=4 SUSY. This supersymmetry can be broken down to N=2 if non-trivial boundary conditions in the compact…
