We consider 2-dimensional QCD on a cylinder, where space is a circle of length $L$. We formulate the theory in terms of gauge-invariant gluon operators and multiple-winding meson (open string) operators. The meson bilocal operators satisfy…

This talk comments the main features of a hadronic description of QCD in the limit of large number of colours. We derive a quantum field theory for mesons based on chiral symmetry and a perturbative expansion in 1/NC. Some large-NC and…

We propose gauging matrix models of string theory to eliminate unwanted non-singlet states. To this end we perform a discretised light-cone quantisation of large N gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions, with scalar or fermionic matter fields…

A detailed investigation of the low-energy chiral expansion is presented within a model truncation of QCD. The truncation allows for a phenomenological description of the quark-quark interaction in a framework which maintains the global…

These lectures contain an introduction to the following topics: 1) Phenomenology of the hadron spectrum; 2) The static Wilson loop in perturbative and in lattice QCD. Confinement and the flux tube formation; 3) Non static properties:…

The partition functions of QCD2 on simple surfaces admit representations in terms of exponentials of the inverse coupling, that are modular transforms of the usual character expansions. We review the construction of such a representation in…

We pursue the possibility of using subcritical string theory in 4 space-time dimensions to establish a string dual for large N QCD. In particular we study the even G-parity sector of the 4 dimensional Neveu-Schwarz dual resonance model as…

This is a talk delivered at the Meeting on Integrable Quantum Field Theories, Villa Olmo and at STRINGS 1992, Rome, September 1992. I discuss some recent attempts to revive two old ideas regarding an analytic approach to QCD-the development…

In this review article, we review the recent developments in constructing string field theories that have been proposed, all of which correctly reproduce the correlation functions of two-dimensional string theory. These include: (a) free…

We consider 2-dimensional QCD on a cylinder, where space is a circle. We find the ground state of the system in case of massless quarks in a $1/N$ expansion. We find that coupling to fermions nontrivially modifies the large $N$ saddle point…

We study dynamics of two-dimensional non-abelian gauge theories with N=(0,2) supersymmetry that include N=(0,2) supersymmetric QCD and its generalizations. In particular, we present the phase diagram of N=(0,2) SQCD and determine its…

The motivations of the 1/N expansion method in quantum field theory are explained. The method is first illustrated with the O(N) model of scalar fields. A second example is considered with the two-dimensional Gross-Neveu model of fermion…

We present a simple physical representation for states of the two-dimensional string theory. In order to incorporate a fundamental cutoff of the order 1/g we use a picture consisting of q-oscillators at the first-quantized level. In this…

In this article, we extend the world sheet treatment of planar QCD in 1+2 dimensions from an earlier work. The starting point is a field theory that lives on the world sheet, parametrized by the light cone variables. In the present work, we…

In this paper we consider the matching coefficients up to two loops between Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and Non-Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) for the vector, axial-vector, scalar and pseudo-scalar currents. The structure of the effective theory…

I begin by discussing the basic ideas of quantum field theory (QFT). I provide a review of symmetries in physics and then move on to discuss the quark model. I then review lattice gauge theory with particular attention paid to lattice QCD…

The nucleon-nucleon potential is analysed using the 1/N_c expansion of QCD. The NN potential is shown to have an expansion in 1/N_c^2, and the strengths of the leading order central, spin-orbit, tensor, and quadratic spin-orbit forces…

We study the thermodynamics of two-color QCD at high temperature and/or density using a dimensionally reduced superrenormalizable effective theory, formulated in terms of a coarse grained Wilson line. In the absence of quarks, the theory is…

These lectures give an introduction to duality in Quantum Field Theory. We discuss the phases of gauge theories and the implications of the electric-magnetic duality transformation to describe the mechanism of confinement. We review the…

The QCD-motivated constituent string model is extended to consider the baryon. The system of three quarks propagating in the confining background field is studied in the Wilson loop approach, and the effective action is obtained. The…
