Topological-Antitopological Fusion and the Large N CP^N Model

M. Bourdeau, M. R. Douglas

We discuss the large $N$ limit of the supersymmetric $C P^{N}$ models as an illustration of Cecotti and Vafa's $t t^{*}$ formalism. In this limit the ` $t t^{*}$ equation' becomes the long w…

Large $N$ Phase Transition in Continuum QCD $_{2}$

Michael R. Douglas, Vladimir A. Kazakov

We compute the exact partition function for pure continuous Yang-Mills theory on the two-sphere in the large $N$ limit, and find that it exhibits a large $N$ third order phase tran…

Conformal Field Theory Techniques for Large N Group Theory

Michael R. Douglas

We show how to use quantum mechanics on the group manifold U(N) as a tool for problems in U(N) representation theory. The quantum mechanics reduces to free fermions on the circle,…
