We review the current status of the long-term programme of numerical investigation of S p (2
N) gauge theories with and without fermionic matter content. We start by introducing the …

Abstract For Yang-Mills theories in four dimensions, we propose to rescale the ratio between
topological susceptibility and string tension squared in a universal way, dependent only on …

A bstract The Sp (4) gauge theory with two Dirac fundamental flavours provides a candidate
for the microscopic origin of composite-Higgs models based on the SU (4)/Sp (4) coset. We …

Symplectic gauge theories coupled to matter fields lead to symmetry enhancement
phenomena that have potential applications in such diverse contexts as composite Higgs …

We report the masses of the lightest spin-0 and spin-2 glueballs obtained in an extensive
lattice study of the continuum and infinite volume limits of S p (N c) gauge theories for N c= 2 …

We show that the presence of a lightish scalar resonance, σ σ, that mixes with the composite
Goldstone–Higgs boson can relax the typical bounds found in this class of models. This …

A bstract Many strongly coupled field theories admit a spectrum of gauge-invariant bound
states that includes scalar particles with the same quantum numbers as the vacuum. The …

We present a major update on our investigations of SU (2) gauge theory with one Dirac
flavor in the adjoint representation on the lattice. In particular, we consider larger volumes as …

A bstract We reconsider a one-parameter class of known solutions of the circle
compactification of Romans six-dimensional half-maximal supergravity. The gauge-theory …

In this work we present the results of our investigation of SU (2) gauge theory with two Dirac
fermions in the adjoint representation (aQCD2), which belongs to the class of strongly …
