We study the complexity of the gravity dual to the confining $SU(N)\times SU(N+M)$ Klebanov-Strassler gauge theory, which is an important test case for holographic complexity in higher-dimensional and nonconformal gauge/gravity dualities.…

As shown in arXiv:hep-th/0405282, the warped deformed conifold has two bosonic massless modes, a pseudoscalar and a scalar, that are dual to the phase and the modulus of the baryonic condensates in the cascading gauge theory. We reconsider…

We point out that perturbation theory in conjunction with the renormalization group (RG) puts a severe constraint on the structure of the large-N non-perturbative glueball propagators in SU(N) pure YM, in QCD and in n=1 SUSY QCD with…

We calculate the low-lying glueball spectrum and various string tensions in SU(N) lattice gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions, and extrapolate the results to the continuum limit. We do so for for the range N=2 to N=16 so as to control the…

The top-down type IIB holographic dual of large-$N$ thermal QCD as constructed in arXiv:0902.1540 involving a fluxed resolved warped deformed conifold, its delocalized type IIA SYZ mirror as well as its M-theory uplift constructed in…

We scrutinize the determination of glueball masses in pure Yang-Mills theory from functional equations, i.e. Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations. We survey the state-of-the-art input (dressed propagators and vertices) with an…

We report on our continued efforts to measure the glueball and meson spectra in SU($N$) Yang-Mills theory and QCD with the aim of extrapolating to the large-$N$ limit. In particular, we document the computation of the low-lying SU($6$)…

Supersymmetric gauge theories are an essential part of most theories beyond the standard model. In the present work we investigate the pure gauge sector of Super-QCD focusing on the bound states, i.e. mesonic gluinoballs, gluino-glueballs…

We delve deeper into the potential composition of dark matter as stable scalar glueballs from a confining dark $SU(N)$ gauge theory, focusing on $N=\{3,4,5\}$. To predict the relic abundance of glueballs for the various gauge groups and…

We discuss the classification of the light scalar mesons with mass below 2 GeV into q qbar nonets and glueballs. The information on production and decay of these states, in particular recent information on f_0(980), f_0(400-1200) (or…

We formulate and solve a Euclidean Bethe-Salpeter equation for the lightest scalar glueball (0++) in pure Yang-Mills theory, using the refined Gribov-Zwanziger gluon tree-level propagator as an infrared-complete input. In a minimal ladder…

We extend the Standard Model gauge group by a a gauged $U(1)_R$ R-Symmetry or a gauged $U(1)'$. The requirement of cancellation of anomalies is very constraining but can be achieved by adding three or four hidden-sector fields which are…

Properties of the tensor glueball are discussed in the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto Model, a top-down holographic approach to the non-perturbative region of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD).

We show how to construct seven-dimensional half-maximally supersymmetric consistent truncations of 11-/10-dimensional SUGRA using $\mathrm{SL}(5)$ exceptional field theory. Such truncations are defined on generalised…

We provide the first explanation of the counter-intuitive scalar glueball couplings to pseudoscalar mesons found in lattice QCD and predict hitherto uncalculated decay modes. Significant a_1 pi and (pi pi)_S (pi pi)_S couplings are found.…

Using flavor SU(3) symmetry for the light quarks validated by the available experimental data, we propose an intuitive way to hunt for a scalar glueball in B decays. In the presence of mixing between the glueball and ordinary scalar mesons,…

We improve upon recent calculations of the low-lying `glueball' spectra of SO(3) and SO(4) lattice gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions, and compare the resulting continuum extrapolations with SU(2). We find that these are reasonably…

The perspectives of numerical simulations in supersymmetric quantum field theories with vector-like gauge symmetries are discussed. A numerical simulation algorithm for SU(2) gauge theory with gluinos is studied and the first results on the…

The center-of-gravity rule is tested for heavy and light-quark mesons. In the heavy-meson sector, the rule is excellently satisfied. In the light-quark sector, the rule suggests that the $a_0(980)$ could be the spin-partner of $a_2(1320)$,…

We review the phenomenological and theoretical evidences for dynamical gluon mass generation and the main features of the glueball spectrum in (pure gauge) Yang-Mills theories. The mixing between glueball and conventional $\bar q q$ states…
