The Polyakov loop models in the large N limit: Phase diagram at finite density
Abstract
The 't Hooft-Veneziano limit of various U(N) and SU(N) Polyakov loop models is constructed at finite temperature and non-zero baryon chemical potential. In this paper we calculate the free energy, its derivatives, the Polyakov loop expectation values and the baryon density. The phase diagram is described in details.
