We investigate nonperturbative effects in N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric theories using a relation between perturbative and exact anomalies as a starting point. For N=2 supersymmetric SU(n) Yang-Mills theory we derive the general structure of…
We show that the recently proposed formulation of noncommutative N=2 Super Yang-Mills theory implies that the commutative and noncommutative effective coupling constants \tau(u) and \tau_{nc}(u) coincide. We then introduce a key relation…
The constraints of N=2 supersymmetry, in combination with several other quite general assumptions, have recently been used to show that N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory has a low energy quantum parameter space symmetry characterised by…
These lectures provide an introduction to the behavior of strongly-coupled supersymmetric gauge theories. After a discussion of the effective Lagrangian in nonsupersymmetric and supersymmetric field theories, I analyze the qualitative…
Classically, the dual under the Seiberg-Witten map of noncommutative U(N), {\cal N}=1 super Yang-Mills theory is a field theory with ordinary gauge symmetry whose fields carry, however, a \theta-deformed nonlinear realisation of the {\cal…
We study the low-energy dynamics of noncommutative $\N=2$ supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills theories in the Coulomb phase. Exact results are derived for the leading terms in the derivative expansion of the Wilsonian effective action. We find…
Recently, a number of intriguing results have been obtained for strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in vacuum and matter, using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In this work, we provide a physical picture supporting…
Supersymmetric pure Yang-Mills theory is formulated with a local, i.e. space-time dependent, complex coupling in superspace. Super-Yang-Mills theories with local coupling have an anomaly, which has been first investigated in the Wess-Zumino…
A formulation of $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a spacetime-dependent gauge coupling allows to study the breaking of conformal symmetry at the quantum level. The theory has an energy-momentum tensor that is only…
We consider supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on R x S^1 x S^1. In particular, we choose one of the compact directions to be light-like and another to be space-like. Since the SDLCQ regularization explicitly preserves supersymmetry, this…
We consider duality transformations in N=2, d=4 Yang--Mills theory coupled to N=2 supergravity. A symplectic and coordinate covariant framework is established, which allows one to discuss stringy `classical and quantum duality symmetries'…
We describe a simple method for determining the strong-coupling BPS spectrum of four dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The idea is to represent the magnetic monopoles and dyons in terms of D-brane boundary states of a…
We study the U(N) non-commutative Yang-Mills theory at the one-loop approximation. We check renormalizability and gauge invariance of the model and calculate the one-loop beta function. The interaction of the SU(N) gauge bosons with the…
We study the commutative limit of the non-commutative maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions (N=4 SYM). The commutative limits of non-commutative spaces are important in particular in the applications of…
Actual calculations of monopole and dyon spectra have previously been performed in N=4 SYM and in N=2 SYM with gauge group SU(2), and are in total agreement with duality conjectures for the finite theories. These calculations are extended…
The quantization of the non-commutative N=1, U(1) super-Yang-Mills action is performed in the superfield formalism. We calculate the one-loop corrections to the self-energy of the vector superfield. Although the power-counting theorem…
I revisit a basic question about the noncommutative Yang-Mills theory: if it exists or not, or more precisely, whether a nonperturbative formulation exists. As the most promising approach, I consider a formulation based on matrix models. It…
We consider the dimensional reduction of N = 1 SYM_{2+1} to 1+1 dimensions, which has (1,1) supersymmetry. The gauge groups we consider are U(N) and SU(N), where N is a finite variable. We implement Discrete Light-Cone Quantization to…
The N=2* theory (mass deformation of N=4 Super-Yang-Mills) undergoes an infinite number of quantum phase transitions in the large-N limit. The phase structure and critical behavior can be analyzed with the help of supersymmetric…
The strong coupling behavior of finite temperature free energy in N=4 supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory has been recently discussed by Gubser, Klebanov and Tseytlin in the context of AdS-SYM correspondence. In this note, we focus on…
