Solving pure yang-mills theory in dimensions

We analytically compute the spectrum of the spin zero glueballs in the planar limit of pure Yang-Mills theory in 2 + 1 dimensions. The new ingredient is provided by our computation of a new nontrivial form of the ground state wave functional. The mass spectrum of the theory is determined by the zero...

Zusammenfassung:We analytically compute the spectrum of the spin zero glueballs in the planar limit of pure Yang-Mills theory in 2 + 1 dimensions. The new ingredient is provided by our computation of a new nontrivial form of the ground state wave functional. The mass spectrum of the theory is determined by the zeroes of Bessel functions, and the agreement with large lattice data is excellent.
