The string spectrum from large Wilson loops
We look at energies of the low lying states of the hadronic string in three dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory by forming correlation matrices among different sources. We are able to go to previously inaccessible time separations. This is made possible by using a new algorithm proposed by Lüscher and Weisz which lets us measure the exponentially small values of large Wilson loops with suffi...
متن کاملWilson loops in large-N theories
In the AdS/CFT correspondence, correlation functions of conformal fields are related to amplitudes of a quantum theory in AdS [1 – 3] (for a review, see for example [4]). Since the conformal group of the boundary and the isometry group of AdS are identical, correlation functions defined in this way are conformally symmetric. However not all quantum theories in AdS can be related to CFT at the b...
متن کاملWilson loops in large N field theories
We propose a method to calculate the expectation values of an operator similar to the Wilson loop in the large N limit of field theories. We consider N = 4 3+1 dimensional super-Yang-Mills. The prescription involves calculating the area of a fundamental string worldsheet in certain supergravity backgrounds. We also consider the case of coincident M-theory fivebranes where one is lead to calcula...
متن کاملString Representation of Wilson Loops
We explore the consequences of imposing Polyakov’s zig/zag-invariance in the search for a confining string. We first find that the requirement of zig/zaginvariance seems to be incompatible with spacetime supersymmetry. We then try to find zig/zag-invariant string backgrounds on which to implement the minimal-area prescription for the calculation of Wilson loops considering different possibiliti...
متن کاملWilson Loops and QCD/String Scattering Amplitudes
We generalize modern ideas about the duality between Wilson loops and scattering amplitudes in N = 4 SYM to large N QCD by deriving a general relation between QCD meson scattering amplitudes and Wilson loops. We then investigate properties of the open-string disk amplitude integrated over reparametrizations. When the Wilson loop is approximated by the area behavior, we find that the QCD scatter...
