We construct defect networks in pure Yang-Mills theory in two dimensions using a refinement of the lattice approach. The refinement preserves the locality properties of individual defects, and is compatible with solvability of the theory…
This paper was originally published in June 2013 in JFM (vol. 725). There was one result concerning an expression of viscous dissipation in convective flows and a second result on the condition of applicability of the anelastic liquid…
Two-dimensional Yang-Mills models in a pseudo-euclidean space are considered from a point of view of a class of nonlinear Klein-Gordon-Fock equations. It is shown that the Nahm reduction does not work, another choice is proposed and…
We review some recent results on the calculation of renormalization constants in Yang-Mills theory using open bosonic strings. The technology of string amplitudes, supplemented with an appropriate continuation off the mass shell, can be…
The compatibility conditions for the equation (2.2) was not considered, the equation $u$ should satisfy (1.3). Thank Prof. Valeria Banica for pointing out the mistake.
We explore the properties of a recently proposed background independent exact renormalization group approach to gauge theories and gravity. In the process we also develop the machinery needed to study it rigorously. The proposal comes with…
The theory of ideal Yang-Mills fluids (IYMF; a Yang-Mills field coupled to a fluid in the limit of infinite conductivity) is embedded in symmetric hyperbolic form. This yields both causality and well-posedness of initial value problems in…
We present an improved study of spectroscopic observables in the $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory with two adjoint fermions. We make an improvement on the precision of previous results which clarify the scale of finite volume effects present. This…
We study the formulation of the Wilson renormalization group (RG) method for a non-Abelian gauge theory. We analyze the simple case of $SU(2)$ and show that the local gauge symmetry can be implemented by suitable boundary conditions for the…
The conditions leading to a nontrivial renormalization of the topological charge in four--dimensional Yang--Mills theory are discussed. It is shown that if the topological term is regarded as the limit of a certain nontopological…
We compute the renormalization group flow of the mass anomalous dimension in adjoint QCD with $N_{f}=1$, $3/2$, and 2 Dirac fermions, using the gradient flow. Preliminary results are in agreement with at least a near-conformal scenario in…
Shown is a new duality for the moduli spaces of Yang-Mills connections over noncommutative vector bundles, using which one sees that total data of quantum field theory are preserved by dimension reduction.
We obtain the exact beta function for $N=2$ SUSY $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory and prove the nonperturbative Renormalization Group Equation $$ \partial_\Lambda{\cal F}(a,\Lambda)= {\Lambda\over \Lambda_0}\partial_{\Lambda_0}{\cal…
We discuss the quantum equivalence, to all orders of perturbation theory, between the Yang-Mills theory and its first order formulation through a second rank antisymmetric tensor field. Moreover, the introduction of an additional…
The renormalizability of the Yang-Mills quantum field theory in four-dimensional space-time is discussed in the background field formalism.
We consider N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on a four-dimensional lattice. The lattice formulation under consideration retains one exact supersymmetry at non-zero lattice spacing. We show that this feature combined with gauge invariance and the…
This is an addendum to a previous article, which aims to provide the proofs of some results in that paper (Theorem 7.5 and Proposition 9.15) which were removed from its final version. The reason for such omission is that these proofs follow…
We show that in the Landau gauge of the SU(2) Yang-Mills theory the residual global symmetry supports existence of the topological vortices which resemble disclination defects in the nematic liquid crystals and the Alice (half-quantum)…
I review my explanation of the irreversibility of the renormalization-group flow in even dimensions greater than two and address new investigations and tests.
The renormalization procedure for the Yang-Mills theory in the gauge free of the Gribov ambiguity is constructed. It is shown that all the ultraviolet infinities may be removed by renormalization of the parameters entering the classical…
