Abstract:
We derive the microscopic spectral density of the Dirac operator in SU(Nc3)SU(N_c\geq 3) Yang-Mills theory coupled to NfN_f fermions in the fundamental representation. An essential technical ingredient is an exact rewriting of this density in terms of integrations over the super Riemannian manifold Gl(Nf+11)Gl(N_f+1|1). The result agrees exactly with earlier calculations based on Random Matrix Theory.
