Vacuum structure of bifundamental gauge theories at finite topological angles
Abstract We discuss possible vacuum structures of SU(n) × SU(n) gauge theories with bifundamental matters at finite θ angles. In order to give a precise constraint, a mixed ’t Hooft anomaly is studied in detail by gauging the center ℤ n one-form symmetry of the bifundamental gauge theory. We propose...
