Free Energy and Phase Transition of the Matrix Model on a Plane-Wave
Shirin Hadizadeh, Bojan Ramadanovic, Gordon W. Semenoff +1
It has recently been observed that the weakly coupled plane wave matrix model has a density of states which grows exponentially at high energy. This implies that the model has a ph…
Five-Brane Thermodynamics from the Matrix Model
K. Furuuchi, E. Schreiber, G. W. Semenoff
A certain sector of the matrix model for M-theory on a plane wave background has recently been shown to produce the transverse five-brane. We consider this theory at finite tempera…
Worldsheet of the discrete light front string
Gordon W. Semenoff
Some aspects of light-like compactifications of superstring theory and their implications for the matrix model of M-theory are discussed.
Quantum Spin-1/2 Antiferromagnetic Chains and Strongly Coupled Multiflavor Schwinger Models
F. Berruto, G. Grignani, G. W. Semenoff +1
We review the correspondence between strongly coupled lattice multiflavor Schwinger models and SU(N) antiferromagnetic chains. We show that finding the low lying states of the gaug…
Characterizing Phases of the non-Abelian Coulomb Gas
L. D. Paniak, G. W. Semenoff
The thermodynamic problem of a gas of static quarks carrying U(N) charges and interacting with each other via U(N) electric gauge fields is formulated and solved in the large N lim…
The Mixed Non-Abelian Coulomb Gas in Two Dimensions
C. R. Gattringer, L. D. Paniak, G. W. Semenoff
The statistical mechanics of a mixed gas of adjoint and fundamental representation charges interacting via 1+1-dimensional U(N) gauge fields is investigated. In the limit of large…
