On continuous 2-category symmetries and Yang-Mills theory
We study a 4d gauge theory U(1) N−1 ⋊ S N obtained from a U(1) N−1 theory by gauging a 0-form symmetry S N . We show that this theory has a global continuous 2-category symmetry, whose structure is particularly rich for N > 2.

Nous avons investigué, via les simulations de Monte Carlo, les propriétés non-perturbatives du modèle de Higgs abélien en 2+1 dimensions sans et avec le terme de Chern-Simons dans la phase de symétrie brisée, en termes de ses excitations topologiques ...

Integrated correlators with a Wilson line in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM
In the context of integrated correlators in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM, we study the 2-point functions of local operators with a superconformal line defect. Starting from the mass-deformed N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2* theory in presence of a 1 2 $$ \frac{1}{

Supersymmetric Wilson loops via integral forms
We study supersymmetric Wilson loops from a geometrical perspective. To this end, we propose a new formulation of these operators in terms of an integral form associated to the immersion of the loop into a supermanifold. This approach provides a unifying

1-form symmetry versus large N QCD
We show that large N QCD does not have an emergent ℤ N 1-form symmetry. Our results suggest that a symmetry-based understanding of (approximate) confinement in QCD would require some further generalization of the notion of generalized global symmetries.

Precision matching of circular Wilson loops and strings in AdS 5 × S 5
Previous attempts to match the exact N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super Yang-Mills expression for the expectation value of the 12 $$ \frac{1}{2} $$-BPS circular Wilson loop with the semiclassical AdS 5 × S 5 string theory prediction were not successful at the

The next-to-next-to-leading order soft function for top quark pair production
We present the first calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order threshold soft function for top quark pair production at hadron colliders, with full velocity dependence of the massive top quarks.

Quark-antiquark potential in defect conformal field theory
We consider antiparallel Wilson lines in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 super Yang-Mills in the presence of a codimension-1 defect. We compute the Wilson lines’ expectation value both at weak coupling, in the gauge theory, and at strong coupling, by finding the

We present a two-loop calculation of the supersymmetric circular Wilson loop in the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2* super Yang-Mills theory on the four-sphere. We develop an efficient framework for computing contributing Feynman graphs that relies on using the ...
