A String Theory for Two-Dimensional Yang-Mills Theory II
Ofer Aharony, Suman Kundu, Tal Sheaffer
In earlier work we proposed a string theory dual to two dimensional Yang-Mills theory at zero coupling (which can also be thought of as a theory), given by a Polyakov-like gen…

Effective Strings in QED
Ofer Aharony, Netanel Barel, Tal Sheaffer
Effective string theory describes the physics of long confining strings in theories, like Yang-Mills theory, where the mass gap is of the same order as the string tensi…
