    His website says:

    Survey “Mathematical uses of gauge theory” written approx 2004, published in the Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Physics, Ed. Francois, Naber, Tsou

    I found that the year is 2006 and the title there is slightly different:

    Gauge Theory: Mathematical Applications

    I also included a link to the Science Direct page for the article.

    and I have copied it over to Donaldson’s “Selected writings” here

    Let’s all do that with references. It’s just one extra copy-and-paste, but gives a mighty useful cross-linking.

    some more references on canonical YM

  1. Replaced broken link http://www2.imperial.ac.uk/~skdona/YMILLS.PDF by new link https://www.ma.imperial.ac.uk/~skdona/YMILLS.PDF. Also added missing comma.

    Re #9 perhaps it’s better if you upload the file directly to the nLab given that there’s no doi link.

    incidentally, this is about the reference Donaldson 2005. I am uploading the pdf now.

    Also added pointer to:

    (where the bundle-theoretic understanding of YM theory originates)

    and brought the list of “reviews” into chronoogical order

    Changed dead link as question was moved from Theoretical Physics Stackexchange to Physics Stackexchange.

    Edit: I was thinking to create an own page for D=2 Yang-Mills theory (which currently is a redirect to D=2 QCD), because the special case allows for the Yang-Mills measure (see Two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on Wikipedia), or would it be better to integrate that on D=2 QCD. In the same breath, I’ve thought about creating D=4 Yang-Mills theory with a detailed explanation of the (anti) self-dual Yang-Mills equations? Or does that also already exist somewhere else or should better be integrated on another page?

    Yes, we should certainly eventually have a dedicated page for D=2 YM and not have it redirect to D=2 QCD.
