Large-N Reduction, Master Field and Loop Equations in Kazakov-Migdal Model

I study the large-N reduction a la Eguchi--Kawai in the Kazakov--Migdal lattice gauge model. I show that both quenching and twisting prescriptions lead to the coordinate-independent master field. I discuss properties of loop averages in reduced as well as unreduced models and demonstrate those coincide in the large mass expansion. I derive loop equations for the Kazakov--Migdal model at large N and show they are reduced for the quadratic potential to a closed set of two equations. I find an exact strong coupling solution of these equations for any D and extend the result to a more general interacting potential.
