$T\bar{T}$-deformed 2D Yang-Mills at large N: collective field theory and phase transitions

A. Gorsky, D. Pavshinkin, A. Tyutyakina

We consider the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of 2d large $N$ YM theory on a cylinder, sphere and disk. The collective field theory Hamiltonian for the deformed theory is derived and the p…
