In 1+1 dimensions two different formulations exist of SU(N) Yang Mills theories in light-cone gauge; only one of them gives results which comply with the ones obtained in Feynman gauge. Moreover the theory, when considered in 1+(D-1)…
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…
