The large-N limit of SU(N) gauge theories is of considerable interest from the phenomenological point of view, and is one of our sources of understanding of non-perturbative QCD. The theoretical side is no less interesting, allowing e.g. to establish precise relationships between Yang-Mills theories and string theories. A crucial property of large-N field theories is factorization: connected Gr...
متن کاملNonperturbative Solution of Supersymmetric Gauge Theories *
Recent work on the numerical solution of supersymmetric gauge theories is described. The method used is SDLCQ (supersymmetric discrete light-cone quan-tization). An application to N = 1 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions at large Nc is summarized. The addition of a Chern–Simons term is also discussed.
متن کاملLarge-N volume independence in conformal and confining gauge theories
Consequences of large N volume independence are examined in conformal and confining gauge theories. In the large N limit, gauge theories compactified on Rd−k × (S) are independent of the S radii, provided the theory has unbroken center symmetry. In particular, this implies that a large N gauge theory which, on R, flows to an IR fixed point, retains the infinite correlation length and other scal...
متن کاملθ dependence of SU ( N ) gauge theories
We study the θ dependence of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories, for N ≥ 3 and in the large-N limit. We use numerical simulations of the Wilson lattice formulation of gauge theories to compute the first few terms of the expansion of the ground-state energy F (θ) around θ = 0, F (θ) − F (0) = A2 θ(1 + b2θ2 + ...). Our results support Witten’s conjecture: F (θ) − F (0) = A θ + O(1/N) for suffi...
