Large-$N$ Dynamics of a QCD-Inspired Unitary Matrix Model

hep-th · 2026-04-20 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

The large-N limit of a QCD-inspired unitary matrix model admits analytic solutions for spectral density, Wilson loops, and free energy in the ungapped phase, reproducing low-T QCD, with a third-order phase transition at μ=0 and a continuous transition of at least second order at finite μ.

    In the 't Hooft-Veneziano limit the Polyakov loop model with exact static quark determinant reduces to a deformed unitary matrix model that is solved exactly, yielding free energy, Polyakov loop expectation value, quark condensate, and a phase diagram controlled by κ = N_f/N.
