Explore a high energy physics seminar examining the duality between large N gauge theories and string theories, focusing on two dimensional quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Led by Ofer Aharony from the Weizmann Institute, delve into ongoing research conducted in collaboration with S. Kundu, T. Sheaffer, and L. Yung that investigates two distinct approaches to understanding string theory duality. Learn about the perturbative approach to obtaining stringy descriptions of 2d QCD with massive adjoint fermions, and discover how a worldsheet description can be developed for string duals in two-dimensional pure Yang-Mills theory. Gain insights into this fundamental physics problem that has remained partially unsolved for five decades.
