We develop a new Yang-Mills theory for connections D in a vector bundle E with bundle metric h, over a Riemannian manifold by dropping the customary assumption Dh = 0. We apply this theory to Einstein-Weyl geometry (cf. M.F. Atiyah, et al., Self-duality in four-dimensional Riemannian geometry, Proc.

We perform the stochastic quantization of Yang Mills theory in configuration space and derive the Faddeev Popov path integral density. Based on a generalization of the stochastic gauge fixing scheme and its geometrical interpretation this result is obtained as the exact equilibrium solution of the a
Starting from the works of Mandelstam and Bialynicki-Birula, two kinds of gauge-invariant potentials are derived from Yang-Mills theory. Both potentials are path-dependent. However, one of the potentials is Lorentz invariant because it was defined by averaging over 4-dimensional space weighted by th
