abstract

The $1/N$ expansion of the weak coupling phase of two-dimensional QCD on a sphere is constructed. It is demonstrated that the phase transition from the weak to the strong coupling phase is induced by instantons. A double scaling limit of the theory at the point of the phase transition is constructed, the value of string susceptibility is determined to be $\gamma_{str}=-1$. The possibility of instanton induced large $N$ phase transitions in four dimensional QCD is explored.

The String Dual to Two-dimensional Yang-Mills Theory Revisited

hep-th · 2025-02-04 · conditional · novelty 6.0

Chiral two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory at large N is proposed to be dual to a stationary subsector of Gromov-Witten theory deformed by an area-dependent transposition interaction and an Omega-point compactification operator.
