The θ-dependence of the SU(N) critical temperature at large N

Abstract We investigate, by means of numerical lattice simulations, the θ-dependence of the critical deconfinement temperature of SU(N) gauge theories at large N : T c (θ) = T c (0)[1 – Rθ 2 + O(θ 4)], with R ~ O(1/N 2). We follow two different strategies to determine R, one based on the calculation...
