We study axially symmetric monopoles of both the SU(2) Yang-Mills-HiggsDilaton (YMHD) as well as of the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs-Dilaton (EYMHD) system. We find that equally to gravity, the presence of the dilaton field can render an attractive phase. We also study the influence of a massive dilaton on the attractive phase in the YMHD system.

We consider the Super Yang–Mills/spin system map to construct the SU(2) spin bit model at the level of two loops in Yang–Mills perturbation theory. The model describes a spin system with chaining interaction. In the large N limit the model is shown to be reduced to the two loop planar integrable spin chain.

We present numerical results for the deconfinement phase transition in Sp(2) and Sp(3) Yang-Mills theories in (2+1)-D and (3+1)-D. We then make a conjecture on the order of this phase transition in Yang-Mills theories with general Lie groups G

We consider a spherically symmetric, static system of a Dirac particle interacting with classical gravity and an SU(2) Yang-Mills field. The corresponding EinsteinDirac-Yang/Mills equations are derived. Using numerical methods, we find different types of soliton-like solutions of these equations and discuss their properties. Some of these solutions are stable even for arbitrarily weak gravitati...

I give a summary of Section E of the sixth edition of the Conference Quark confinement and the hadron spectrum. Papers were presented on different subjects, from spectroscopy, including pentaquarks and hadron structure, to new physics effects (non commutative field theories, supersymmetry and extra dimensions) and the problem of color confinement, both in ordinary Yang-Mills models and in super...

Objectives-Studies in traditional paper mills have indicated an excess cancer risk, and mutagenic compounds have been identified in the industry. No studies have reported on risk of cancer in paper recycling. Therefore the cancer incidence in Danish paper recycling mills was inves-

In this note, we determine the representation content of the free, largeN , SU(N) Yang Mills theory on a sphere by decomposing its thermal partition function into characters of the irreducible representations of the conformal group SO(4,2). We also discuss the generalization of this procedure to finding the representation content of N = 4 Super Yang Mills.

We study a series of problems in classical Yang-Mills theories using lattice methods. We first investigate SU(N) self-dual configurations on the torus with twisted boundary conditions. We also study the zero modes of the Dirac equation in topological non-trivial background Yang-Mills fields.

From its inception in statistical physics to its role in the construction and in the development of the asymmetric Yang-Mills phase in quantum field theory, the notion of spontaneous broken symmetry permeates contemporary physics. This is reviewed with particular emphasis on the conceptual issues. Contribution to “Fifty years of Yang Mills theory”, editor G. ’t Hooft, World Scientific.

Graviational radiation is described by canonical Yang-Mills wave equations on the curved space-time mani-fold, together with evolution equations for the metric in the tangent bundle. The initial data problem is described in Yang-Mills scalar and vector potentials, resulting in Lie-constraints in addition to the familiar Gauss-Codacci relations.
