In this paper, we consider bosonic reduced Yang-Mills integrals by using some approximation schemes, which are a kind of mean field approximation called Gaussian approximation and its improved version. We calculate the free energy and the…

We investigate semiclassical properties of space-time geometry of the low energy limit of reduced four dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills integrals using Monte-Carlo simulations. The limit is obtained by an one-loop approximation of the…

We present a three-loop O(g^6) calculation of the difference between the expectation values of Wilson loops evaluated in N=4 and superconformal N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(N) using dimensional reduction. We find…

We derive analytically one-loop corrections to the effective Polyakov-line operator in the branched-polymer approximation of the reduced four-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills integrals.

Using supersymmetric localization we compute the free energy and BPS Wilson loop vacuum expectation values for planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on $S^d$ in the strong coupling limit for $2\leq d<6$. The same calculation can…

We propose a method to calculate the expectation values of an operator similar to the Wilson loop in the large N limit of field theories. We consider N=4 3+1 dimensional super-Yang-Mills. The prescription involves calculating the area of a…

We report a perturbative calculation of the expectation value of the infinite straight line Maldacena-Wilson loop in $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to order $g^6$. Thus, we extend the previous perturbative result by one…

We propose an alternative method to study the saddle point equation in the strong coupling limit for the Wilson loop in $\mathcal{N}=2$ D=4 super Yang-Mills with an SU(N) gauge group and 2N hypermultiplets. This method is based on an…

Perturbative computations of the expectation value of the Wilson loop in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are reported. For the two special cases of a circular loop and a pair of anti-parallel lines, it is shown that the sum of an…

We consider the vacuum expectation values of 1/2-BPS circular Wilson loops in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in the totally antisymmetric representation of the gauge group U(N) or SU(N). Localization and matrix model techniques provide exact,…

In this paper, we investigate the 1/4 BPS Wilson-'t Hooft loops in $\mathcal{N}$=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We use the bulk D3-brane solutions with both electric and magnetic charges on its world-volume to describe some of 1/4 BPS…

We investigate elliptical Wilson loops in ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang--Mills theory at weak and strong coupling for small values of the eccentricity. We obtain analytical results for the vacuum expectation value of the Wilson loop in the form…

We study our Schwinger-Dyson equation as well as the large $N_{c}$ loop equation for supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions by the N=1 superspace Wilson-loop variable. We are successful in deriving a new manifestly…

We present here the results of our high accuracy simulations of $q\bar q$ potential in $d=4$ SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. We measure this quantity by measuring the {\it Polyakov Loop Correlators} using the {\it exponential variance reduction…

For a generic gauge-invariant correlator <{\cal Q}[A_{\mu}]>_{A}, we reformulate the standard D=4 Yang-Mills theory as a renormalizable system of two interacting fields a_{\mu} and B_{\mu} which faithfully represent high- and low-energy…

N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory exhibits a rather surprising duality of Wilson-loop vacuum expectation values and scattering amplitudes. In this paper, we investigate this correspondence at the diagram level. We find that one-loop…

We consider a supersymmetric Wilson loop operator for 4d N=4 super Yang-Mills theory which is the natural object dual to the AdS_5 x S^5 superstring in the AdS/CFT correspondence. It generalizes the traditional bosonic 1/2 BPS…

We perform Monte Carlo simulations of a supersymmetric matrix model, which is obtained by dimensional reduction of 4D SU(N) super Yang-Mills theory. The model can be considered as a four-dimensional counterpart of the IIB matrix model. We…

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…

We compute the one-loop four-point function in {\cal N}=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group U(N). We perform the calculation in {\cal N}=1 superspace using the background field method and obtain the complete off-shell…
