We prove that SU(N) bosonic Yang-Mills matrix integrals are convergent for dimension (number of matrices) $D\ge D_c$. It is already known that $D_c=5$ for N=2; we prove that $D_c=4$ for N=3 and that $D_c=3$ for $N\ge 4$. These results are…

We give a comparison of the spectrum of Yang-Mills theory in $D=3+1$, recently derived with a strong coupling expansion, with lattice data. We verify excellent agreement also for 2$^{++}$ glueball. A deep analogy with the $D=2+1$ case is…
We consider evidence for the existence of gauge configurations with fractional charge in pure N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory . We argue that these field configurations are singular and have to be treated as distributions. It is shown…
We uplift 5-dimensional super-Yang-Mills theory to a 6-dimensional gauge theory with the help of a space-like constant vector $\eta^M$, whose norm determines the Yang-Mills coupling constant. After the localization of $\eta^M$ the 6D gauge…
