A simple argument for confinement in the large N limit of SU(N)
Description
Using rather general assumptions it is shown that the QCD vacuum consists of a condensate of color magnetic vortices in the large N limit of the SU(N) gauge group. In this argument it is important that the gauge group has a non-trivial center. Some observations are also made on the finite N case in the strong coupling lattice gauge theory, and it is shown that there is much similarity between N=infinity and N finite. (Auth.)
