We analyze the two-dimensional CP(N-1) sigma model defined on a finite space interval L, with various boundary conditions, in the large N limit. With the Dirichlet boundary condition at the both ends, we show that the system has a unique…

The large-$N$ nonlinear $O(N)$, $CP^{N-1}$ $\sigma$ models are studied on $R^2 \times S^1$. The $N$-components scalar fields of the models are supposed to acquire a phase $e^{i2\pi\delta}$ $(0\leq \delta <1)$, along the circulation of the…
