Nonrelativistic Particle in Free Random Gauge Background

preprint1996arXivOpen access

Abstract

The problem of a nonrelativistic particle with an internal color degree of freedom, with and without spin, moving in a free random gauge background is discussed. Freeness is a concept developed recently in the mathematical literature connected with noncommuting random variables. In the context of large-N hermitian matrices, it means that the the multi-matrix model considered contains no bias with respect to the relative orientations of the matrices. In such a gauge background, the spectrum of a colored particle can be solved for analytically. In three dimensions, near zero momentum, the energy distribution for the spinless particle displays a gap, while the energy distribution for the particle with spin does not.
