The non-local generalized two dimensional Yang Mills theories on an arbitrary orientable and non-orientable surfaces with boundaries is studied. We obtain the effective action of these theories for the case which the gauge group is near the…

We consider two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories on arbitrary Riemann surfaces. We introduce a generalized Yang-Mills action, which coincides with the ordinary one on flat surfaces but differs from it in its coupling to two-dimensional…

In this paper, a Riemannian geometry of noncommutative super surfaces is developed which generalizes [4] to the super case. The notions of metric and connections on such noncommutative super surfaces are introduced and it is shown that the…

It is known that the supermultiplet of beta-deformations of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be described in terms of the exterior product of two adjoint representations of the superconformal algebra. We present a…

We show that two-dimensional SO(N) and Sp(N) Yang-Mills theories without fermions can be interpreted as closed string theories. The terms in the 1/N expansion of the partition function on an orientable or nonorientable manifold M can be…

This is a short note on the relation of the Matrix model with the non-commutative geometry of the 11-dimensional supermembrane. We put forward the idea that M-theory is described by the 't Hooft topological expansion of the Matrix model in…

The first and shorter part of this thesis deals with the structural assumption of invertibility in a Lie groupoid. When this assumption is dropped, we obtain the notion of a Lie category: a small category, endowed with a compatible…

In this letter we derive the Seiberg-Witten map for noncommutative super Yang-Mills theory in Wess-Zumino gauge. Following (and using results of) hep-th/0108045 we split the observer Lorentz transformations into a covariant particle Lorentz…

We reconsider the relation of superconformal indices of superconformal field theories of class S with five-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory compactified on the product space of a round three-sphere and a Riemann surface. We…

We propose a formulation of d-dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theories on a d+2-dimensional space with the extra two dimensions forming a surface with non-commutative geometry. This equivalence is valid in any finite order in the 1/N…

In this paper we show the existence of non minimal critical points of the Yang-Mills functional over a certain family of 4-manifolds with generic SU(2)-invariant metrics using Morse and homotopy theoretic methods. These manifolds are acted…

We give a new description of N=1 super Yang-Mills theory in curved superspace. It is based on the induced geometry approach to a curved superspace in which it is viewed as a surface embedded into C(4|2). The complex structure on C(4|2)…

The large-N limit of the two-dimensional non-local U$(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on an orientable and non-orientable surface with boundaries is studied. For the case which the holonomies of the gauge group on the boundaries are near the…

We quantize pure 2d Yang-Mills theory on an arbitrary Riemann surface in the gauge where the field strength is diagonal. Twisted sectors originate, as in Matrix string theory, from permutations of the eigenvalues around homotopically…

We study a topological Yang-Mills theory with $N=2$ fermionic symmetry. Our formalism is a field theoretical interpretation of the Donaldson polynomial invariants on compact K\"{a}hler surfaces. We also study an analogous theory on compact…

We propose that chiral two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a Riemann surface is dual to a deformed stationary subsector of the Gromov-Witten theory of that Riemann surface. Firstly, we argue that the algebraic structure that underlies the…

The correlation functions of open Wilson line operators in two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on the noncommutative torus are computed exactly. The correlators are expressed in two equivalent forms. An instanton expansion involves only…

We consider the partition function of super Yang-Mills theories defined on $T^2 \times \Sigma_g$. This path integral can be computed by the localization. The one-loop determinant is evaluated by the elliptic genus. This elliptic genus gives…

We show that $N=2$ and $N=4$ extended supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories in four space-time dimensions could be derived as action functionals for non-commutative spaces. The coupling of $N=1$ and $N=2$ super Yang-Mills to $N=1$ and $N=2$…

Building on our proposal in arXiv:2405.06629, we present in detail the construction of the extended phase space for Yang-Mills at null infinity, containing the asymptotic symmetries and the charges responsible for sub$^n$-leading soft…
