Mixed Model of Induced QCD

Abstract

The problems with the $Z_N$ symmetry breaking in the induced QCD are analyzed. We compute the Wilson loops in the strong coupling phase, but we do not find the $Z_N$ symmetry breaking, for arbitrary potential. We suggest to bypass this problem by adding to the model a heavy fermion field in a fundamental representation of $ SU(N) $. Remarkably, the model still can be solved exactly by the Rieman-Hilbert method, for arbitrary number $N_f$ of flavors. At $ N_f \ll N \rightarrow \infty $ there is a new regime, with two vacuum densities. The $Z_N$ symmetry breaking density satisfies the linear integral equation, with the kernel, depending upon the old density. The symmetry breaking requires certain eigenvalue condition, which takes some extra parameter adjustment of the scalar potential.
