Wilson loops are the basic observables of Yang—Mills theory, and their expectation is rigorously defined on the Euclidean plane and on a compact Riemannian surface. Focusing on the case where the structure group is the unitary group, I will present a formula that computes any Wilson loop expectation in almost purely combinatorial terms, thanks to the dictionary between unitary and symmetric quantities provided by the Schur-Weyl duality.
