We show that a necessary condition to have a positive Landau-gauge ghost propagator in d=2 Yang-Mills theories is a vanishing zero-momentum gluon propagator. Our proof is based on a careful scrutinizing of the ghost Dyson-Schwinger…

The gluon propagator in Landau gauge is calculated on the lattice for SU(2) gauge theory. In particular the manifestation of confinement in the gluon propagator is studied. Removing the confining center vortices from the Yang-Mills ensemble…

Using gauge/gravity duality, we compute the energy density and angular distribution of the power radiated by a quark undergoing circular motion in strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. We compare the strong…

By superposition of regular gauge instantons or merons, ensembles of gauge fields are constructed which describe the confining phase of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. Various properties of the Wilson loops, the gluon condensate and the…

We discuss the gluon propagator in 3- and 4-dimensional Yang-Mills theories in Coulomb gauge and compare it with the corresponding Landau gauge propagator, showing that for both the relevant IR mass scale coincides. We also report…

The main objective of this thesis is to present a new analytical framework for low-energy QCD that goes under the name of massive, or "screened", perturbative expansion. The massive perturbative expansion is motivated by the phenomenon of…

We examine the double-trace spectrum of $\mathcal{N} = 4$ super Yang-Mills theory in the supergravity limit. At large $N$ double-trace operators exhibit degeneracy. By considering free-field and tree-level supergravity contributions to…

A longstanding question in QCD is the origin of the mass gap in the Yang-Mills sector of QCD, i.e., QCD without quarks. In Landau gauge QCD this mass gap, and hence confinement, is encoded in a mass gap of the gluon propagator, which is…

The infrared behavior of the gluon and ghost propagators is studied in SU(2) Euclidean Yang-Mills theory in the maximal Abelian gauge within the Gribov-Zwanziger framework. The nonperturbative effects associated with the Gribov copies and…

A non-trivial consequence of the super-correlator/super-amplitude duality is that the integrand of the four-point correlation function of stress-tensor multiplets in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills contains a certain combination of n-point…

In this talk, we discuss a number of recent calculations aimed at determining the spectral functions corresponding to various components of the energy momentum tensor in high-temperature SU(N) Yang-Mills theory. The computations reviewed…

The spectrum of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, calculated on the lattice, is presented. The masses have been determined on three different lattice spacings and extrapolated towards vanishing gluino mass. We present the extrapolation…

I describe some recent developments in the understanding of gluon scattering amplitudes in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory in the large-N_c limit. These amplitudes can be computed to high orders in the weak coupling expansion, and also now at…

We compute the finite temperature ghost and gluon propagators of Yang-Mills theory in the Landau-DeWitt gauge. The background field that enters the definition of the latter is intimately related with the (gauge-invariant) Polyakov loop and…

We find double copy relations between classical radiating solutions in Yang-Mills theory coupled to dynamical color charges and their counterparts in a cubic bi-adjoint scalar field theory which interacts linearly with particles carrying…

We study Landau-gauge gluon and ghost propagators in Yang-Mills theories at lattice parameter beta = 0, considering relatively large lattice volumes for the case of the SU(2) gauge group in three and four space-time dimensions. We compare…

The spectrum of particles in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is expected to contain a spin 1/2 bound state of gluons and gluinos, the gluino-glue particle. We study the mass of this particle in softly broken supersymmetric Yang-Mills…

The vacuum of Yang-Mills theory contains singular stringlike objects identified with center (magnetic) vortices. Percolation of magnetic vortices is known to be responsible for the color confinement in the low-temperature phase of the…

The study of renormalization of Yang-Mills fields in the light-front gauge has always been a delicate subject in that divergent {\em non-local} terms arise from the calculations of Feynman diagrams. In this short paper we show that this…

We consider Yang-Mills theories in a recently proposed family of nonlinear covariant gauges that consistently deals with the issue of Gribov ambiguities. Such gauges provide a generalization of the Curci-Ferrari-Delbourgo-Jarvis gauges…
