Abstract

We give the first and lowest order examples of 3-regular 3-edge-colored graphs that demonstrate the non-factorization of tensor model invariants in the large N limit of Gaussian random tensors, as proven on general grounds in [Gurau R., Joos F. and Sudakov B., Lett. Math. Phys., 115 (2025), arXiv:2506.15362 [math-ph]]. This non-factorization is in stark contrast to the well-known large N factorization for random matrices.
