Two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory is a useful model of an exactly solvable gauge theory with a string theory dual at large $N$. We calculate entanglement entropy in the $1/N$ expansion by mapping the theory to a system of $N$ fermions…

We confirm by explicit computation the conjectured all-orders iteration of planar maximally supersymmetric N=4 Yang-Mills theory in the nontrivial case of five-point two-loop amplitudes. We compute the required unitarity cuts of the…

Thermodynamics of d=4, N=4 supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory is studied with particular attention on perturbative expansion at weak `t Hooft coupling regime and interpolation to strong coupling regime thereof. Non-ideal gas effect to…

Within the framework of the Exact Renormalization Group, a manifestly gauge invariant calculus is constructed for SU(N) Yang-Mills. The methodology is comprehensively illustrated with a proof, to all orders in perturbation theory, that the…

The radiative correction to beta function is comprehensively studied at 1 loop in the context of universal extra dimensions. Instead of using cutoffs to regularize 1-loop divergences, the dimensional regularization scheme is used. Large…

A recently proposed method for a strong coupling analysis of scattering phenomena in hamiltonian lattice field theories is applied to the $\SU2$ Yang-Mills model in $(2+1)$ dimensions. The calculation is performed up to second order in the…

The thermal confinement phase transition (PT) in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory is first-order for $N\geq 3$, with bounce action scaling as $N^2$. Remarkably, lattice data for the action include a small coefficient whose presence likely strongly…

We investigate the possibility that unification occurs at strong coupling. We show that, despite the fact the couplings pass through a strong coupling regime, accurate predictions for their low energy values are possible because the…

We investigate the one-loop spectral problem of $\gamma$-twisted, planar $\mathcal{N}$=4 Super Yang-Mills theory in the double-scaling limit of infinite, imaginary twist angle and vanishing Yang-Mills coupling constant. This non-unitary…

In the lattice work by Miller [1,2] and in the work by Zwanziger [3] a linear growth of the trace anomaly for high temperatures was found in pure SU(2) and SU(3) Yang-Mills theories. These results show the remarkable property that the…

In line with some previous works, we study in this paper the meson spectrum in the framework of a second order quark-antiquark Bethe-Salpeter formalism which includes confinement. An analytic one loop running coupling constant alpha_s(Q),…

In this work, we analyze a large class of effective Yang-Mills-Higgs models constructed in terms of adjoint scalars. In particular, we reproduce asymptotic properties of the confining string, suggested by lattice simulations of $SU(N)$ pure…

The quantization of the Seiberg-Witten curve of ${\cal N}=2$ super Yang-Mills theory leads to a deformation of one-dimensional quantum mechanics with unconventional behavior. Most notably, quantum tunneling is suppressed at special points…

We study the Seiberg-Witten-Whitham equations in the strong coupling regime of the N=2 super Yang-Mills theory in the vicinity of the maximal singularities. In the case of SU(2) the Seiberg-Witten-Whitham equations fix completely the strong…

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…

We consider the partially-deconfined saddle of large-$N$ pure Yang-Mills theory lying between confined and deconfined phases, in which the color degrees of freedom split into confined and deconfined sectors. Based on the microscopic…

We study the massive Yang-Mills theory in which the mass term is added by hand. The standard perturbative approach suggests that the massless limit of this theory is not smooth. We confirm that this issue is related to the existence of…

The $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory compactified on $\mathbb{R}^3 \times S^1_L$ with small $L$ has many merits, for example the long range effective theory is weakly coupled and adopts rich topological structures, making it semi-classically…

Massive Yang-Mills theory is known to be renormalizable in 1+1 dimensions. The gluon mass is introduced by coupling the gauge field to an SU(N) principal chiral nonlinear sigma model. The proof of renormalizability relies on the asymptotic…

We study the large N dynamics of two massless Yang-Mills coupled matrix quantum mechanics, by minimization of a loop truncated Jevicki-Sakita effective collective field Hamiltonian. The loop space constraints are handled by the use of…
