The Yang-Mills existence and mass gap problem originates from quantum field theory and investigates the behavior of elementary particles. It asks whether a quantum field theory with specific properties (Yang-Mills theory) possesses a mass gap, meaning that a non-zero minimum energy is required to excite the system.
