We present recent results on the theta-dependence of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories, where theta is the coefficient of the CP-violating topological term in the Lagrangian. In particular, we study the scaling behavior of these…

We review recent results on the theta dependence of the ground-state energy and spectrum of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories, where theta is the coefficient of the CP-violating topological term F-Fdual in the Lagrangian. In particular,…

We study the large-$N$ scaling behavior of the $\theta$ dependence of the ground-state energy density $E(\theta)$ of four-dimensional (4D) $SU(N)$ gauge theories and two-dimensional (2D) $CP^{N-1}$ models, where $\theta$ is the parameter…

We study the $\theta$ dependence of four-dimensional SU($N$) gauge theories, for $N\geq 3$ and in the large-N limit. We use numerical simulations of the Wilson lattice formulation of gauge theories to compute the first few terms of the…

We investigate the dependence of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories on the topological theta term at finite temperature and, in particular, across the deconfinement transition. For this purpose, we exploit the lattice formulation of the…

In this talk we will report on a study of the $\theta$-dependence of the string tension and of the mass gap of four-dimensional SU($N$) Yang--Mills theories. The spectrum at $N=3$ and $N=6$ was obtained on the lattice at various imaginary…

We report a study of the dependence of 4D SU(N) gauge theories on the topological theta term at finite temperature, and in particular in the large-N limit. We show that the theta dependence drastically changes across the deconfinement…

We study the theta dependence of the spectrum of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories, where theta is the coefficient of the topological term in the Lagrangian, for N>=3 and in the large-N limit. We compute the O(theta^2) terms of the…

We discuss the extension of the field theoretical approach, already used in the lattice determination of the topological susceptibility, to the computation of further terms in the expansion of the ground state energy $F(\theta)$ around…

We review results concerning the theta dependence of 4D SU(N) gauge theories and QCD, where theta is the coefficient of the CP-violating topological term in the Lagrangian. In particular, we discuss theta dependence in the large-N limit.…

We study the dependence of the free energy on the CP violating angle theta, in four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories with N >= 3, and in the large-N limit. Using the Wilson lattice formulation for numerical simulations, we compute the first…

We report on a precise computation of the topological charge distribution in the SU(3) Yang--Mills theory. It is carried out on the lattice with high statistics Monte Carlo simulations by employing the definition of the topological charge…

We investigate the topological properties of the $SU(3)$ pure gauge theory by performing numerical simulations at imaginary values of the $\theta$ parameter. By monitoring the dependence of various cumulants of the topological charge…

The large volume behaviour of the topological susceptibility in SU(3) gauge theory is investigated on the lattice to establish an upper limit on the parity violating terms.

Through a detailed investigation of the $SU(3)$ gauge theory at finite temperature on lattices of various size we can control finite lattice cut-off effects in bulk thermodynamic quantities. We calculate the pressure and energy density of…

A theta-term, which couples to topological charge, is added to the two-dimensional lattice CP^3 model and U(1) gauge theory. Monte Carlo simulations are performed and compared to strong-coupling character expansions. In certain instances, a…

The theta dependent of pure gauge theories in four dimensions can be studied using a duality of large N gauge theories with string theory on a certain spacetime. Via this duality, one can argue that for every theta, there are infinitely…

We study two-dimensional U($N$) and SU($N$) gauge theories with a topological term on arbitrary surfaces. Starting from a lattice formulation we derive the continuum limit of the action which turns out to be a generalisation of the heat…

We calculate the low-lying glueball spectrum of the SU(3) lattice gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions for the range of beta up to beta=6.50 using the standard plaquette action. We do so for states in all the representations R of the cubic…
