Coleman's puzzles are solved: at θ=π with equal masses the model shows spontaneous charge conjugation breaking and no confinement with mass gap ~m exp(-0.111 g²/m²) at strong coupling; at θ=0 a level crossing occurs between isosinglet states; isospin-breaking effects are quantified for unequal mass.

abstract
We propose gauging matrix models of string theory to eliminate unwanted non-singlet states. To this end we perform a discretised light-cone quantisation of large N gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions, with scalar or fermionic matter fields transforming in the adjoint representation of SU(N). The entire spectrum consists of bosonic and fermionic closed-string excitations, which are free as N tends to infinity. We analyze the general features of such bound states as a function of the cut-off and the gauge coupling, obtaining good convergence for the case of adjoint fermions. We discuss possible extensions of the model and the search for new non-critical string theories.
