On Finite-Volume Gauge Theory Partition Functions
We prove a Mahoux-Mehta–type theorem for finite-volume partition functions of SU(Nc ≥ 3) gauge theories coupled to fermions in the fundamental representation. The large-volume limit is taken with the constraint V << 1/m π . The theorem allows one to express any k-point correlation function of the microscopic Dirac operator spectrum entirely in terms of the 2-point function. The sum over topolog...
متن کاملFinite Volume Gauge Theory Partition Functions in Three Dimensions
We determine the fermion mass dependence of Euclidean finite volume partition functions for three-dimensional QCD in the ǫ-regime directly from the effective field theory of the pseudo-Goldstone modes by using zero-dimensional non-linear σ-models. New results are given for an arbitrary number of flavours in all three cases of complex, pseudo-real and real fermions, extending some previous consi...
متن کاملConsistency Conditions for Finite-Volume Partition Functions
Using relations from random matrix theory, we derive exact expressions for all n-point spectral correlation functions of Dirac operator eigenvalues in terms of finite-volume partition functions. This is done for both chiral symplectic and chiral unitary random matrix ensembles, which correspond to SU(Nc ≥ 3) gauge theories with Nf fermions in the adjoint and fundamental representations, respect...
متن کاملConformal Orbifold Partition Functions from Topologically Massive Gauge Theory
We continue the development of the topological membrane approach to open and unoriented string theories. We study orbifolds of topologically massive gauge theory defined on the geometry [0, 1] × Σ, where Σ is a generic compact Riemann surface. The orbifold operations are constructed by gauging the discrete symmetries of the bulk three-dimensional field theory. Multi-loop bosonic string vacuum a...
متن کاملDirac Operator Spectra from Finite-Volume Partition Functions
Based on the relation to random matrix theory, exact expressions for all microscopic spectral correlators of the Dirac operator can be computed from finite-volume partition functions. This is illustrated for the case of SU(Nc) gauge theories with Nc ≥ 3 and Nf fermions in the fundamental representation.
