Vacuum structure of bifundamental gauge theories at finite topological angles
A bstract We discuss possible vacuum structures of SU (n)× SU (n) gauge theories with
bifundamental matters at finite θ angles. In order to give a precise constraint, a mixed't Hooft …

QCD-like theories on : A smooth journey from small to large <?format ?>with double-trace deformations
M Shifman, M Uensal - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2008 - APS
We consider QCD-like theories with one massless fermion in various representations of the
gauge group SU (N). The theories are formulated on R 3× S 1. In the decompactification limit …

Supersymmetry Relics in One-Flavor QCD from a New Expansion
We suggest a new large-N c limit for multiflavor QCD. Since fundamental and two-index
antisymmetric representations are equivalent in SU (3), we have the option to define SU (N …

Beta functions of 2D adjoint QCD
A Cherman, M Neuzil - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We discuss the long-distance physics of 2D adjoint QCD when it is viewed as an effective
field theory and determine the β functions for its two classically marginal four-Fermi …
