We generalize to topologically non-trivial gauge configurations the description of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system in terms of a noncommutative manifold, as was done previously by Chamseddine and Connes. Starting with an algebra bundle and a…
The $\gamma_i$-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory is a non-supersymmetric deformation of the maximally-supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions which is conformally-invariant at the planar level. At the non-planar level…
We study the perturbative unitarity of non-commutative quantum Yang-Mills theories, extending previous investigations on scalar field theories to the gauge case where non-locality mingles with the presence of unphysical states. We…
We solve a generalization of ordinary N=1 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group U(N) and an adjoint chiral multiplet X for which we turn on both an arbitrary tree-level superpotential term \int d^{2}\theta Tr W(X) and an arbitrary…
We describe a simple method for determining the strong-coupling BPS spectrum of four dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The idea is to represent the magnetic monopoles and dyons in terms of D-brane boundary states of a…
We develop Coulomb gas pictures of strong and weak coupling regimes of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in five and four dimensions. By relating them to the matrix models that arise in Chern-Simons theory, we compute their free energies in…
We consider the supersymmetric field theories on the noncommutative $R^4$ using the superspace formalism on the commutative space. The terms depending on the parameter of the noncommutativity $\Theta$ are regarded as the interactions. In…
Noncommutative field theories on Moyal spaces can be conveniently handled within a framework of noncommutative geometry. Several renormalisable matter field theories that are now identified are briefly reviewed. The construction of…
The theory of noncommutative geometry provides an interesting mathematical background for developing new physical models. In particular, it allows one to describe the classical Standard Model coupled to Euclidean gravity. However,…
A nonabelian class of massless/massive nonlinear gauge theories of Yang-Mills vector potentials coupled to Freedman-Townsend antisymmetric tensor potentials is constructed in four spacetime dimensions. These theories involve an extended…
These lectures notes are an intoduction for physicists to several ideas and applications of noncommutative geometry. The necessary mathematical tools are presented in a way which we feel should be accessible to physicists. We illustrate…
We study U(1) gauge theory on a 4d non-commutative torus, where two directions are non-commutative. Monte Carlo simulations are performed after mapping the regularized theory onto a U(N) lattice gauge theory in d=2. At intermediate coupling…
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories can be characterized by a non-local and non-linear transformation of the bosonic fields (Nicolai map) mapping the interacting functional measure to that of a free theory, such that the Jacobi determinant…
This paper focuses on a three-parameter deformation of N=4 Yang-Mills that breaks all the supersymmetry in the theory. We show that the resulting non-supersymmetric gauge theory is scale invariant, in the planar approximation, by proving…
Non-commutative geometry (NCG) is a mathematical discipline developed in the 1990s by Alain Connes. It is presented as a new generalization of usual geometry, both encompassing and going beyond the Riemannian framework, within a purely…
Yang-Baxterising a braid group representation associated with multideformed version of $GL_{q}(N)$ quantum group and taking the corresponding $q\rightarrow 1$ limit, we obtain a rational $R$-matrix which depends on $\left ( 1+ {N(N-1) \over…
Stringent restrictions for model building are imposed by a no-go theorem in noncommutative gauge field theory. Circumventing this theorem is crucial for the construction of realistic models of particle interactions. To this end, the…
Seiberg-Witten maps and a recently proposed construction of noncommutative Yang-Mills theories (with matter fields) for arbitrary gauge groups are reformulated so that their existence to all orders is manifest. The ambiguities of the…
