Vanishing Polyakov loop for QCD with twelve massless quarks
We consider continuum-formulation QCD in four dimensions with twelve massless fundamental quark flavors. Splitting the SU(N) gauge field into background and fluctuation parts, we use well-developed techniques to calculate the one-loop effective action for the theory. We find that for constant self-d...
