Abstract

Non-perturbative effects are responsible for the essential dynamical features of the four-dimensional gauge theories such as QCD.  The N=2 supersymmetric four-dimensional theories are an interesting class of models in which non-perturbative computations can be carried out with arbitrary precision using localization of the path integrals. I will explain the new exact non-perturbative results and the relation to classical and quantum integrable systems for a large class of N=2 supersymmetric QCD.
