The 1/n expansion and instantons in CPsup(n-1) models on a sphere
Description
CPsup(n-1) models on a two-dimensional sphere are considered in the 1/n expansion. The large n leading term of the partition function in a sector with fixed topological charge is calculated. In the limit of a small volume it approaches the semiclassical instanton contribution. A number of questions concerning the volume dependence of topological quantities are investigated. (orig.)
