Large N limit of N = 2 SU(N) gauge theories from localization

We study N = 2 Yang-Mills theory on S4 in the large-N limit. We and that on a large sphere Wilson loops obey a perimeter law and that the free energy grows quadratically with the radius of the sphere. We also comment on the large-N limit of the N = 2* theory, and on the free energy in N = 2 and N =...

Zusammenfassung:We study N = 2 Yang-Mills theory on S4 in the large-N limit. We and that on a large sphere Wilson loops obey a perimeter law and that the free energy grows quadratically with the radius of the sphere. We also comment on the large-N limit of the N = 2* theory, and on the free energy in N = 2 and N = 4 superconformal theories.
