Unitary matrix integral for QCD with real quarks and the GOE-GUE crossover

High Energy Physics - Theory 2021-06-08 v3 Mathematical Physics math.MP

Abstract

A unitary matrix integral that appears in the low-energy limit of QCD-like theories with quarks in real representations of the gauge group at finite chemical potential is analytically evaluated and expressed as a pfaffian. Its application to the GOE-GUE crossover in random matrix theory is discussed. An analogous unitary integral for QCD-like theories with quarks in pseudoreal representations of the gauge group is also evaluated.
