Large N phase transition in $$ T\overline{T} $$ -deformed 2d Yang-Mills theory on the sphere

Abstract: We study the partition function of a T T-deformed version of Yang-Mills theory on the two-sphere. We show that the Douglas-Kazakov phase transition persists for a range of values of the deformation parameter, and that the critical area is lowered. The transition is of third order and also induced by instantons, whose contributions we characterize.

“…where g YM is the Yang-Mills coupling constant. Following this proposal, the phase structure of the U(N ) theory on the sphere was studied at large N in [38], using standard field theory techniques. The prescription (1.1) was derived by [39] by directly coupling the heat kernel expansion, which depends on the area of the Riemann surface, to JT gravity and performing the gravitational path integral.…”

“…A central point of this paper is a generalization of the analysis of [38] to the large N limit of the T T -deformation of q-deformed U(N ) Yang-Mills theory on the sphere. We show that the main features of the undeformed theory are preserved, namely there is a third order phase transition induced by instantons.…”

“…Besides TT deformation, other deformations in this set including the so-called JT deformation also receive much attention from both field theory and holographic points of view [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. In addition, the TT deformation can also be understood from some other perspectives and generalizations [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38].…”
