We describe an infinite-dimensional Kac-Moody-Virasoro algebra of new hidden symmetries for the self-dual Yang-Mills equations related to conformal transformations of the 4-dimensional base space.
We develop a perturbative expansion which allows the construction of non-abelian self-dual SU(2) Yang-Mills field configurations on the four-dimensional torus with topological charge 1/2. The expansion is performed around the constant field…
We present globally regular vortex-type solutions for a pure SU(2) Yang-Mills field coupled to gravity in 3+1 dimensions. These gravitating vortices are static, cylindrically symmetric and purely magnetic, and they support a non-zero…
Using (partial) curvature flows and the transitive action of subgroups of O(d,Z) on the indices {1,...,d} of the components of the Yang-Mills curvature in an orthonormal basis, we obtain a nested system of equations in successively higher…
We argue that two dimensional classical SU(2) Yang-Mills theory describes the embedding of Riemann surfaces in three dimensional curved manifolds. Specifically, the Yang-Mills field strength tensor computes the Riemannian curvature tensor…
Spaces with a Weyl-type connection and torsion of a special type induced by the structure of the differentiability conditions in the algebra of complex quaternions are considered. The consistency of these conditions implies the self-duality…
The geometrical structure and the quantum properties of the recently proposed harmonic space action describing self-dual Yang-Mills (SDYM) theory are analyzed. The geometrical structure that is revealed is closely related to the twistor…
N=2 string amplitudes, when required to have the Lorentz covariance of the equivalent N=4 string, describe a self-dual form of N=4 super Yang-Mills in 2+2 dimensions. Spin-independent couplings and the ghost nature of SO(2,2) spacetime make…
It is shown analytically that every static, spherically symmetric solution to the Einstein Yang Mills equations with SU(2) gauge group that is defined in the far field has finite ADM mass. Moreover, there can be at most two horizons for…
The usual action of Yang-Mills theory is given by the quadratic form of curvatures of a principal G bundle defined on four dimensional manifolds. The non-linear generalization which is known as the Born-Infeld action has been given. In this…
It is shown that the $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory in $3$-dimensional Riemann-Cartan space-time can be completely reformulated as a gravity-like theory in terms of gauge invariant variables. The resulting Yang-Mills induced equations are found,…
We consider charge transport properties of 2+1 dimensional conformal field theories at non-zero temperature. For theories with only Abelian U(1) charges, we describe the action of particle-vortex duality on the hydrodynamic-to-collisionless…
By casting the Yang-Mills-Higgs equations of an SU(2) theory in the form of the Ernst equations of general relativity, it is shown how the known exact solutions of general relativity can be used to give similiar solutions for Yang-Mills…
The structures of confining vortices which underlie pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory are studied by means of lattice gauge theory. Vortices and Z_3 monopoles are defined as dynamical degrees of freedom of the Z_3 gauge theory which emerges by…
A random vortex world-surface model for the infrared sector of Sp(2) Yang-Mills theory is constructed. The Sp(2) gauge group, while allowing for the same set of center vortex fluxes as the SU(2) gauge group, induces a significantly…
We give exact solutions for a recently developed ~$N=1$~ locally supersymmetric self-dual gauge theories in $~(2+2)\-$dimensions. We give the exact solutions for an $~SL(2)$~ self-dual Yang-Mills multiplet and what we call ``self-dual…
We study pure Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma\times S^2$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact Riemann surface, and invariance is assumed under rotations of $S^2$. It is well known that the self-duality equations in this set-up reduce to vortex…
I discuss new non-perturbative solutions of the sourceless Yang-Mills equation representing the superposition of oppositely oriented chromomagnetic flux tubes (vortices) similar in their form to a lattice of superposed…
We use the lattice cooling method to investigate the structure of some gauge fixed SU(2) Yang-Mills classical solutions of the euclidean equations of motion which are defined in the 3-torus with symmetric twisted boundary conditions.
he Wu-Yang monopole for pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is revisited. New classical solutions with finite energy are found for a generalized Wu-Yang configuration. Our method relies on known asymptotic series solutions and explores the…
