Topological Yang-Mills cohomology in pure Yang-Mills Theory
A. Accardi, A. Belli, M. Martellini +1
Using the first order formalism (BFYM) of the Yang-Mills theory we show that it displays an embedded topological sector corresponding to the field content of the Topological Yang-M…
Algebraic renormalization of the BF Yang-Mills Theory
F. Fucito, M. Martellini, S. P. Sorella +3
We discuss the quantum equivalence, to all orders of perturbation theory, between the Yang-Mills theory and its first order formulation through a second rank antisymmetric tensor f…
Four-Dimensional Yang-Mills Theory as a Deformation of Topological BF Theory
A. S. Cattaneo, P. Cotta-Ramusino, F. Fucito +4
The classical action for pure Yang--Mills gauge theory can be formulated as a deformation of the topological theory where, beside the two-form field , one has to add one ex…
Cohomology and Renormalization of BFYM Theory in three Dimensions
Alberto Accardi, Andrea Belli, Maurizio Martellini +1
The first order formalism for 3D Yang-Mills theory is considered and two different formulations are introduced, in which the gauge theory appears to be a deformation of the topolog…
Feynman rules and beta-function for the BF Yang-Mills Theory
Maurizio Martellini, Mauro Zeni
Yang-Mills theory in the first order formalism appears as the deformation of a topological field theory, the pure BF theory. We discuss this formulation at the quantum level, givin…
Non Local Observables and Confinement in BF Formulation of Yang-Mills Theory
Francesco Fucito, Maurizio Martellini, Mauro Zeni
The vev's of the magnetic order-disorder operators in QCD are found in an explicit calculation using the first order formulation of Yang-Mills theory.
