Flavor broken QCD3 at large N

Abstract We examine the vacuum structure of QCD3 with flavor group U (f)×U (N f −f) in the limit N → ∞ with g 2 N =fixed. We find that, generically, the resolution of critical points into a series of first order pahse transitions persists at special locations in the phase diagram. In particular, the...
