We construct the gauge-invariant electric and magnetic charges in Yang-Mills theory coupled to cosmological General Relativity (or any other geometric gravity), extending the flat spacetime construction of Abbott and Deser. For…

We present a new way of fixing the gauge to (direct) maximal center gauge in SU(N) Yang-Mills theory and apply this method to SU(3) configurations which are vortex-like. We study the structure of the Z_3 configurations obtained after…

By considering specific limits in the gauge coupling constant of pure Yang--Mills dynamics, it is shown how there exist topological quantum field theory sectors in such systems defining nonperturbative topological configurations of the…

We explore a new connection between Seiberg-Witten theory and quantum statistical systems by relating the dual partition function of SU(2) Super Yang-Mills theory in a self-dual Omega-background to the spectral determinant of an ideal Fermi…

Based on quantitative predictions enabled by a nonperturbative approach to Yang-Mills thermodynamics it is explained why the physics of photon {\sl propagation} is not unlikely rooted in pure SU(2) gauge dynamics.

The Sp(2)-gauge fixing of N = 1 super-Yang-Mills theory is considered here. We thereby apply the triplectic scheme, where two classes of gauge-fixing bosons are introduced. The first one depends only on the gauge field, whereas the second…

Geometric quantization of 2+1 dimensional pure Yang-Mills theory is studied with focusing on finite large scales. It is previously shown that (Yildirim, 2015, Int. J. Mod. Phys A, 30(7), 1550034), topologically massive Yang-Mills theory…

The renormalization functions involved in the determination of the topological susceptibility in the SU(2) lattice gauge theory are extracted by direct measurements, without relying on perturbation theory. The determination exploits the…

We revisit the semi-classical calculation of the size distribution of instantons at finite temperature in non-abelian gauge theories in four dimensions. The relevant functional determinants were first calculated in the seminal work of…

Using noncommutative geometry we do U(1) gauge theory on the permutation group $S_3$. Unlike usual lattice gauge theories the use of a nonAbelian group here as spacetime corresponds to a background Riemannian curvature. In this background…

An unusual four-dimensional generally covariant and supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory is described. The theory has propagating degrees of freedom, and is invariant under a local (left-handed) chiral supersymmetry, which is half the…

We find the critical charge for a topologically massive gauge theory for any gauge group, generalising our earlier result for SU(2). The relation between critical charges in TMGT, singular vectors in the WZNW model and logarithmic CFT is…

We show how the method of separation of variables can be used to construct integrable models corresponding to curves describing vacuum structure of four-dimensional ${\cal N} = 2$ SUSY Yang-Mills theories. We use this technique to construct…

We use gauge-string duality to model the $N$-quark potential in pure Yang-Mills theories. For $SU(3)$, the result agrees remarkably well with lattice simulations. The model smoothly interpolates between almost the $\Delta$-law at small…

We describe a supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory based on the gauge group $\SU(5)^3$, or $\SO(10)^3$, invariant under the interchange of any~SU(5), or~SO(10), with each family multiplet transforming non trivially under one different…

The random vortex world-surface model is an infrared effective model of Yang-Mills dynamics based on center vortex degrees of freedom. These degrees of freedom carry topological charge through writhe and self-intersection of their…

We consider SU(N) Yang-Mills theories in 2n+1 Euclidean dimensions coupled to an even flavour-number of Dirac fermions. After integrating out the fermions the wave functional for the effective Yang-Mills theory inherits a non-trivial…

We present our study of a set of solutions to the $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills equations of motion with fractional topological charge. The configurations are obtained numerically by minimizing the action with gradient flow techniques on a torus of…

In generalized Yang-Mills theories scalar fields can be gauged just as vector fields in a usual Yang-Mills theory, albeit it is done in the spinorial representation. The presentation of these theories is aesthetic in the following sense: A…

The question of the dependence of the topological charge $q$ of a gauged Skyrmion, on the gauge field, is studied quantitatively. Two examples, both gauged with $SO(2)$ are studied and contrasted: i) The $O(3)$ model in $2+1$ dimensions,…
