We study the validity of the large-N equivalence between four-dimensional SU(N) lattice gauge theory and its momentum quenched version--the Quenched Eguchi-Kawai (QEK) model. We find that the assumptions needed for the proofs of equivalence…
We study the validity of the large-N equivalence between four-dimensional SU(N) lattice gauge theory and its momentum quenched version -- the Quenched Eguchi-Kawai (QEK) model. We have found strong evidence that this equivalence does not…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations of a supersymmetric matrix model, which is obtained by dimensional reduction of 4D SU(N) super Yang-Mills theory. The model can be considered as a four-dimensional counterpart of the IIB matrix model. We…
Using the Eguchi-Kawai equivalence, we provide regularizations of supersymmetric quiver and Chern-Simons gauge theories which leave the supersymmetries unbroken. This allow us to study many interesting theories on a computer. As examples we…
We study the twisted Eguchi-Kawai (TEK) reduction procedure for large-N unitary matrix lattice models. In particular, we consider the case of two-dimensional principal chiral models, and use numerical Monte Carlo (MC) simulations to check…
It was shown in arXiv:0912.1456 that the large-$N$ reduction holds on group manifolds in the sense that a large-$N$ gauge theory on a group manifold is realized by a matrix model which is obtained by dimensionally reducing the original…
A new formulation of four dimensional quantum field theories, such as scalar field theory, is proposed as a large N limit of a special NxN matrix model. Our reduction scheme works beyond planar approximation and applies for QFT with finite…
This paper explores whether Eguchi-Kawai reduction for gauge theories with adjoint fermions is valid. The Eguchi-Kawai reduction relates gauge theories in different numbers of dimensions in the large $N$ limit provided that certain…
We simulate a supersymmetric matrix model obtained from dimensional reduction of 4d SU(N) super Yang-Mills theory. The model is well defined for finite N and it is found that the large N limit obtained by keeping g^2 N fixed gives rise to…
I study the large-N reduction a la Eguchi--Kawai in the Kazakov--Migdal lattice gauge model. I show that both quenching and twisting prescriptions lead to the coordinate-independent master field. I discuss properties of loop averages in…
The AGT conjecture relates \mathcal{N}=2 4d SUSY gauge theories to 2d CFTs. Matrix model techniques can be used to investigate both sides of this relation. The large N limit refers here to the size of Young tableaux in the expression of the…
Recently it was shown that an asymptotic behaviour of $SU(N)$ gauge theory for large $N$ is described by q-deformed quantum field. The master fields for large N theories satisfy to standard equations of relativistic field theory but fields…
Recent developments in superstring theory and noncommutative geometry are deeply related to the idea of Eguchi-Kawai reduction in large N gauge theories which dates back to early 80s. After a general review on this subject including revived…
Motivated by recent progress on the understanding of the Eguchi-Kawai (EK) volume equivalence and growing interest in conformal window, we simultaneously use the large-Nc volume reduction and Chiral Random Matrix Theory (chRMT) to study the…
These are notes associated with three lectures given at the 49th Cracow School of Theoretical physics where a pedagogical explanation of the Gross-Witten transition, Eguchi-Kawai reduction and continuum reduction were given, followed by a…
We report a simplification in the large N matrix mechanics of light-cone matrix field theories. The absence of pure creation or pure annihilation terms in the Hamiltonian formulation of these theories allows us to find their reduced large N…
The large N Matrix model is studied with attention to the quantum fluctuations around a given diagonal background. Feynman rules are explicitly derived and their relation to those in usual Yang-Mills theory is discussed. Background…
We simulate a supersymmetric matrix model obtained from dimensional reduction of 4d SU(N) super Yang-Mills theory (a 4d counter part of the IKKT model or IIB matrix model). The eigenvalue distribution determines the space structure. The…
We propose a new interpretation of the BFSS large N matrix quantum mechanics analogous to a novel interpretation of the IKKT matrix model where infinitely large N matrices act as differential operators in a curved space. In this picture,…
We advocate a set of approximations for studying the finite temperature behavior of strongly-coupled theories in 0+1 dimensions. The approximation consists of expanding about a Gaussian action, with the width of the Gaussian determined by a…
