Galilean Yang-Mills theory

We investigate the symmetry structure of the non-relativistic limit of yang-mills theories. generalising previous results in the galilean limit of electrodynamics, we discover that for yang-mills theories there are a variety of limits inside the galilean regime. we first explicitly work with the su(2) theory and then generalise to su(n) for all n, systematising our notation and analysis. we discover that the whole family of limits lead to different sectors of galilean yang-mills theories and the equations of motion in each sector exhibit hitherto undiscovered infinite dimensional symmetries, viz. infinite galilean conformal symmetries in d = 4. these provide the first examples of interacting galilean conformal field theories (gcfts) in d > 2.
