On the Glueball Spectrum of Pure Yang - Mills Theory in 2 + 1 Dimensions

چکیده
We present details of the analytic computation of the spectrum of lowest spin glueballs in pure Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions. The new ingredient is provided by the conjectured new non-trivial expression for the (quasi)Gaussian part of the ground state wave-functional. We show that this wave-functional can be derived by solving the Schrödinger equation under certain assumptions. The mass spectrum of the theory is determined by the zeros of Bessel functions, and the agreement with available lattice data is excellent. ∗[email protected] †[email protected] ‡[email protected] 1 ar X iv :h ep -t h/ 06 04 06 0v 4 3 A ug 2 00 7

Precision study of large - N Yang - Mills theory in 2 + 1 dimensions
The boundstate problem in 2+1-dimensional large-N Yang-Mills theory is accurately solved using the light-front Hamiltonian of transverse lattice gauge theory. We conduct a thorough investigation of the space of couplings on coarse lattices, finding a single renormalised trajectory on which Poincaré symmetries are enhanced in boundstate solutions. Augmented by existing data from finite-N Euclide...
متن کاملGlueball mass spectra for supergravity duals of noncommutative gauge theories
We derive the glueball masses in noncommutative super Yang–Mills theories in four dimensions via the dual supergravity description. The spectrum of glueball masses is discrete due to the noncommutativity and the glueball masses are proportional to the noncommutativity parameter with dimension of length. The mass spectrum in the WKB approximation closely agrees with the mass spectrum in finite t...
متن کاملModeling The Glueball Spectrum By A Closed Bosonic Membrane
We use an analogy between the Yang-Mills theory Hamiltonian and the matrix model description of the closed bosonic membrane theory to calculate the spectrum of glueballs in the large Nc limit. Some features of the Yang-Mills theory vacuum, such as the screening of the topological charge and vacuum topological susceptibility are discussed. We show that the topological susceptibility has differen...
متن کاملOn the spectrum of pure Yang-Mills theory∗
In this note we discuss the wave functional approach to the spectrum of pure YangMills theory in 2 + 1 and 3 + 1 dimensions by highlighting the issues of dynamical mass generation and the role played by the kinetic term. We extrapolate our recent analysis of 2+1 Yang-Mills theory to 3+1 dimensions, and under certain heuristic assumptions use a simple quasi-Gaussian vacuum wavefunctional for 3+1...
متن کاملSolving Pure Yang-Mills Theory in 2 1 Dimensions
The understanding of the nonperturbative dynamics of Yang-Mills theory is one of the grand problems of theoretical physics. In this Letter we announce new analytical results pertaining to the spectrum of the spin zero glueballs of 2 1-dimensional Yang-Mills theory [1]. This theory is expected on many grounds to share the essential features of its 3 1-dimensional cousin, such as asymptotic freed...
