Title:  A para-controlled approach to the stochastic Yang-Mills equation in two dimensions

Abstract:  We discuss the stochastic Yang-Mills heat equation on the two-dimensional torus. The local well-posedness and gauge-covariance of this system was first proven by Chandra, Chevyrev, Hairer, and Shen using regularity structures. We present an alternative proof, which instead relies on para-controlled calculus. For this talk, no prior knowledge of singular SPDEs is required.
