Abstract
Large- three dimensional QCD with a level Chern-Simons term and massless flavours admits degenerate vacua. We discuss various aspects of the domain walls that interpolate between those vacua. Using a bosonic dual for the case we write down the profile of the composite wall. By fluctuating the profile, we find the 2d field theory that lives on the wall, a level- gauged WZW model, and compare it with a theory that was previously obtained by using anomaly inflow considerations. We also discuss the case . Finally, we remark on the realisation of the wall as a D-brane in a holographic dual.
