We use gauge-string duality to model the $N$-quark potential in pure Yang-Mills theories. For $SU(3)$, the result agrees remarkably well with lattice simulations. The model smoothly interpolates between almost the $\Delta$-law at small…

In two dimensions large N QCD with quarks, defined on the plane, is equivalent to a modified string theory with quarks at the ends and taken in the zero fold sector. The equivalence that was established in 1975 was expressed in the form of…
