We discuss the perturbative expansion of SU(N) Yang-Mills theories defined on a d-dimensional torus of linear size l with twisted boundary conditions, generalizing previous results in the literature. For a specific class of twist tensors…

In this paper wormhole effects on $SO(3)$ YM theory are examined. The wormhole wave functions for the scalar, the vector and the tensor expansion modes are computed assuming a small gauge coupling which leads to an effective decoupling of…

We compute the static potential associated to the locally 1/2 BPS Wilson loop in ${\cal N}$=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with ${\cal O}(\lambda^2/r)$ accuracy. We also resum the leading logarithms, of ${\cal…

In this paper, we consider a model of interacting phantom and Yang-Mills (YM) fields supposing the dilaton-type coupling. Making use of specific solution for YM equation previously found by the author, we obtain simple exact solutions for…

The rigorous construction of quantum Yang-Mills theories, especially in dimension four, is one of the central open problems of mathematical physics. Construction of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories is the first step towards this goal. This…

We construct an asymptotic expansion in powers of the coupling constant directly of the cross-section for pair production and decay of fundamental unstable particles. The resonant and kinematic singularities arising in the expansion we…

A perturbative regime based on contortion as a dynamical variable and metric as a (classical) fixed background, is performed in the context of a pure Yang-Mills formulation for gravity in a $2+1$ dimensional space-time. In the massless case…

The main issue of this work consists in extracting one or several finite values for the sum of series involved in perturbation theories. It is supposed to work for all cases in which two physical parameters are involved, and makes thorough…

We investigate the transition between weak and strong coupling in thermal ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory as a function of 't Hooft coupling $\lambda$ for several quantities of phenomenological interest for which…

We show that requiring sixteen supersymmetries in quantum mechanical gauge theory implies the existence of a web of constrained interactions. Contrary to conventional wisdom, these constraints extend to arbitrary orders in the momentum…

Recently, Witten proposed a topological string theory in twistor space that is dual to a weakly coupled gauge theory. In this lectures we will discuss aspects of the twistor string theory. Along the way we will learn new things about…

A power-counting renormalizable model into which massive Yang-Mills theory is embedded is analyzed. The model is invariant under a nilpotent BRST differential s. The physical observables of the embedding theory, defined by the cohomology…

The extended Yang-Mills gauge theory in Euclidean space is a renormalizable (by power counting) gauge theory describing a local interacting theory of scalar, vector, and tensor gauge fields (with maximum spin 2). In this article we study…

We review Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with emphasis on the exact results. The implications are discussed in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence.

We study tree-level celestial amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory -- Mellin transforms of multi-gluon scattering amplitudes that convert them into the correlators of conformal primary fields on two-dimensional celestial sphere. By using purely…

We set up a systematic expansion of the prepotential for ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with SU(N) gauge group in the region of strong coupling where a maximal number of mutually local fields become massless. In particular,…

Two different scenarios (light-front and equal-time) are possible for Yang-Mills theories in two dimensions. The exact $\bar q q$-potential can be derived in perturbation theory starting from the light-front vacuum, but requires essential…

I review the analysis of (2+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills ($YM_{2+1})$ theory via the use of gauge-invariant matrix variables. The vacuum wavefunction, string tension, the propagator mass for gluons, its relation to the magnetic mass for…

${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory is a highly constrained theory, and therefore a valuable tool to test the understanding of less constrained Yang-Mills theories. Our aim is to use it to test our understanding of both the Landau gauge…

Contribution to the Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians 1994. We review recent developments in the physics and mathematics of Yang-Mills theory in two dimensional spacetimes. This is a condensed version of a…
