Volume reduction through perturbative Wilson loops
Abstract
We derive the perturbative expansion of Wilson loops to order g4 in a SU(N) lattice gauge theory with twisted boundary conditions. Our expressions show that the thermodynamic limit is attained at infinite N for any number of lattice sites and allow to quantify the deviations from volume independence at finite large N as a function of the twist.
