In this article I attempt to collect some ideas, opinions and formulae which may be useful in solving the problem of gauge/string/space-time correspondence. This includes the validity of D-brane representation, counting of gauge-invariant words, relations between the null states and the Yang-Mills equations and the discussion of the strong coupling limit of the string sigma model. The article is based on the talk given at the "Odyssey 2001" conference.

In the recently proposed generalization of the Yang–Mills theory, the group of gauge transformation gets essentially enlarged. This enlargement involves a mixture of the internal and space–time symmetries. The resulting group is an extension of the Poincaré group with infinitely many generators which carry internal and space–time indices. The matrix representations of the extended Poincaré generators are expressible in terms of Pauli–Lubanski vector in one case and in terms of its invariant derivative in another. In the later case the generators of the gauge group are transversal to the momentum and are projecting the non-Abelian tensor gauge fields into the transversal plane, keeping only their positively definite spacelike components.

Standard functional manipulations have been proven to imply a remarkable property satisfied by the fermionic Green’s functions of QCD and dubbed effective locality. Resulting from a full gauge invariant summation of the gauge field degrees of freedom, effective locality is a non-perturbative property of QCD. This unexpected result has lead to suspect that the famous Gribov copy problem had been somewhat overlooked. It is argued that it is not so. The analysis is conducted in the strong coupling limit, relevant to the Gribov problem.

Abstract In this paper, we develop a new method of computing three-point functions in the SU(2) sector of the $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory in the semi-classical regime at weak coupling, which closely parallels the strong coupling analysis. The structure threading two disparate regimes is the so-called monodromy relation, an identity connecting the three-point functions with and without the insertion of the monodromy matrix. We shall show that this relation can be put to use directly for the semi-classical regime, where the dynamics is governed by the classical Landau-Lifshitz sigma model. Specifically, it reduces the problem to a set of functional equations, which can be solved once the analyticity in the spectral parameter space is specified. To determine the analyticity, we develop a new universal logic applicable at both weak and strong couplings. As a result, compact semi-classical formulas are obtained for a general class of three-point functions at weak coupling including the ones whose semi-classical behaviors were not known before. In addition, the new analyticity argument applied to the strong coupling analysis leads to a modification of the integration contour, producing the results consistent with the recent hexagon bootstrap approach. This modification also makes the Frolov-Tseytlin limit perfectly agree with the weak coupling form.

AbstractWe construct the gauge-invariant electric and magnetic charges in Yang–Mills theory coupled to cosmological general relativity (or any other geometric gravity), extending the flat spacetime construction of Abbott and Deser (Phys Lett B 116:259–263, 1982). For non-vanishing background gauge fields, the charges receive non-trivial contribution from the gravity part. In addition, we study the constraints on the first order perturbation theory and establish the conditions for linearization instability: that is the validity of the first order perturbation theory.

Kuat medan tensor yang ditransformasikan secara homogen terhadap perluasan transformasi gauge memenuhi bentuk sifat invarian gauge. Analisa invarian gauge dalam bantuk integeralnya memperlihatkan hubungan dengan koordinat ruang-waktu yang menunjukan bentuk baru dari topologi Lagrangian. Sifat invarian dari bentuk Pontryagin-Chern terhadap kuat medan tensor non-Abelian dan lemma Poincare dapat digunakan untuk mengkontruksi bentuk ChSAS yang menunjukan sifat quasi-invarian dibawah transformasi gauge. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan bahwa kuat medan tensor Yang-Mills dari bentuk ChSAS memilik variasi gauge anomali non-Abelian seperti pada bentuk Chern-Simons. Integrasi bentuk ChSAS menghasilkan dimensi-4, 6 dan 8 variasi gauge genap dan memperlihatkan hubungan dengan bentuk Chern-Simons dimensi-3 dan 5 untuk variasi gauge ganjil. Bentuk ChSAS memperlihatkan variabel lebih kompleks yang menujukan sifat berosilasi. Tensors field strength transformation homogeneously to extend gauge transformation fulfilling charateristic gauge invariant form. Analysis gauge invariant in integral form shows corresponding with space-time coordinate that prove new topology Lagrangians form. Furthermore invariant charateristic of Pontryagin-Chern to non-Abelian tensor gauge fields and lemma Poincare used to contruct ChSAS forms which shows quasi-inavriant under gauge transformation. This paper aims to prove Yang-Mills tensor gauge field of ChSAS forms has variation non-Abelian anomaly like Chern-Simons forms. The integration ChSAS forms resulted 4, 6 and 8-dimensional even gauge variation which also correspond 3 and 5-dimensional odd gauge variation Chern-Simons forms. The ChSAS forms also showed complex variable and osilation.  Keywords: Pontryagin-Chern, Kuat medan tensor non-Abelian, Chern-Simans-Antoniadis-Savvidy, Anomali Non-Abelian.

Using canonical methods, we study the invariance properties of a bosonic p-brane propagating in a curved background locally diffeomorphic to M×G, where M is space-time and G a group manifold. The action is that of a gauged sigma model in p+1 dimensions coupled to a Yang-Mills field and a (p+1) form in M. We construct the generators of Yang-Mills and tensor gauge transformations and exhibit the role of the (p+1) form in canceling the potential Schwinger terms. We also discuss the Noether currents associated with the global symmetries of the action and the question of the existence of infinite-dimensional symmetry algebras, analogous to the Kac-Moody symmetry of the string.

In the space-of-histories approach to gauge fields and their quantization, the Maxwell, Yang–Mills and gravitational field are well known to share the property of being type-I theories, i.e. Lie brackets of the vector fields which leave the action functional invariant are linear combinations of such vector fields, with coefficients of linear combination given by structure constants. The corresponding gauge-field operator in the functional integral for the in-out amplitude is an invertible second-order differential operator. For such an operator, we consider advanced and retarded Green functions giving rise to a Peierls bracket among group-invariant functionals. Our Peierls bracket is a Poisson bracket on the space of all group-invariant functionals in two cases only: either the gauge-fixing is arbitrary but the gauge fields lie on the dynamical sub-space; or the gauge-fixing is a linear functional of gauge fields, which are generic points of the space of histories. In both cases, the resulting Peierls bracket is proved to be gauge-invariant by exploiting the manifestly covariant formalism. Moreover, on quantization, a gauge-invariant Moyal bracket is defined that reduces to iħ times the Peierls bracket to lowest order in ħ.

We consider bosonized QCD2, and prove that after one rewrites the theory in terms of gauge-invariant fields, there exists an integrability condition that is valid for the quantum theory as well. Furthermore, performing a duality type transformation we obtain an appropriate action for the description of the strong coupling limit, which is still integrable. We also prove that the model displays a complicated set of constraints, which restrict the dynamics of part of the theory, but which are necessary for maintaining the positive metric Hilbert space.
