Computation of the string tension in three dimensions using large N reduction

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2010-01-21 v1

Abstract

We numerically compute the string tension in the large N limit of three dimensional Yang-Mills theory using Wilson loops. Space-time Wilson loops are formed using smeared space-like links and unsmeared time-like links. We use partial reduction and both unfolded and folded Wilson loops in the analysis.
