Phases of three dimensional large N QCD on a continuum torus
arXiv:0704.2591 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2007.06.016
Abstract
It is established by numerical means that continuum large N QCD defined on a three dimensional torus can exist in four different phases. They are (i) confined phase; (ii) deconfined phase; (iii) small box at zero temperature and (iv) small box at high temperatures.
