By making use of the background field method, we derive a novel reformulation of the Yang-Mills theory which was proposed recently by the author to derive quark confinement in QCD. This reformulation identifies the Yang-Mills theory with a…

Recently we have proposed a set of variables for describing the physical parameters of SU(N) Yang--Mills field. Here we propose an off-shell generalization of our Ansatz. For this we envoke the Darboux theorem to decompose arbitrary…

We investigate the structure of return-time sets determined by orbits along polynomial tuples in minimal topological dynamical systems. Building on the topological characteristic factor theory of Glasner, Huang, Shao, Weiss, and Ye, we…

Given a principal G-bundle over a smooth manifold M, with G a compact Lie group, and given a finite-dimensional unitary representation of G, one may define an algebra of functions on the space of connections modulo gauge transformations,…

Let $\mathcal{E}(X)$ be the group of homotopy classes of self homotopy equivalences for a connected CW complex $X$. We observe two classes of maps $\mathcal{E}$-maps and co-$\mathcal{E}$-maps. They are defined as the maps $X\to Y$ that…

A complete classification of generalized symmetries of the Yang-Mills equations on Minkowski space with a semi-simple structure group is carried out. It is shown that any generalized symmetry, up to a generalized gauge symmetry, agrees with…

In this paper, metric reduction in generalized geometry is investigated. We show how the Bismut connections on the quotient manifold are obtained from those on the original manifold. The result facilitates the analysis of generalized…

Phenomenological compactifications of M-theory involve 7-manifolds with G_2 holonomy and various singularities. Here we study local geometries with such singularities, by thinking of them as compactifications of 7d supersymmetric Yang-Mills…

Using tools from the theory of Lie groupoids, we study the category of logarithmic flat connections on principal $G$-bundles, where $G$ is a complex reductive structure group. Flat connections on the affine line with a logarithmic…

The primary interest of this paper is to discuss the role of twisting cochains in the theory of characteristic classes. We begin with the homological description of monodromy map, associated with a connection on a trivial bundle over a…

We prove parabolic versions of several known gap theorems in classical Yang-Mills theory. On an $\mathrm{SU}(r)$-bundle of charge $\kappa$ over the 4-sphere, we show that the space of all connections with Yang-Mills energy less than $4…

We extend the notion of connection in order to be able to study singular geometric structures, namely, we consider a notion of connection on a Lie algebroid which is a natural extension of the usual concept of connection. Using connections,…

This is my Ph.D. thesis defended at 31 May 2021, and it is devoted to the study of the geometry of curved Yang-Mills-Higgs gauge theory (CYMH GT), a theory introduced by Alexei Kotov and Thomas Strobl. This theory reformulates classical…

The aim of this paper and its sequel is to introduce and classify the holonomy algebras of the projective Tractor connection. After a brief historical background, this paper presents and analyses the projective Cartan and Tractor…

We define a family of diffeomorphism-invariant models of random connections on principal $G$-bundles over the plane, whose curvatures are concentrated on singular points. In a limit when the number of point grows whilst the singular…

For the spinning superparticle we construct the pull-back of the world-line path integral to super moduli space in the Hamiltonian formulation. We describe the underlying geometric decomposition of super moduli space. Algebraically, this…

We study the large N (planar) limit of pure SU(N) 2+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory (YM_{2+1}) using a gauge-invariant matrix parameterization introduced by Karabali and Nair. This formulation crucially relies on the properties of local…

We recall the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for the Wilson loop in the Yang-Mills theory and discuss its meaning. Then we move to `gravitational Wilson loops', i.e. to holonomies in curved d=2,3,4 spaces and derive non-Abelian Stokes theorems…

The three fundamental geometric components of Yang-Mills theory -gauge field, gauge fixing and ghost field- are unified in a new object: an extended connection in a properly chosen principal fiber bundle. To do this, it is necessary to…

Previous path integral treatments of Yang-Mills on a Riemann surface automatically sum over principal fiber bundles of all possible topological types in computing quantum expectations. This paper extends the path integral formulation to…
