Veneziano amplitudes, spin chains and Abelian reduction of QCD

TL;DR

This paper argues that Abelian reduction methods are preferable for nonperturbative QCD analysis at low energies, by establishing a connection between Veneziano amplitudes and integrable spin chain models.

Contribution

It develops a new partition function for Veneziano amplitudes and demonstrates its exact mapping to a spin chain model, supporting Abelian reduction in nonperturbative QCD.

Findings

Partition function for Veneziano amplitudes mapped to spin chain model

Mapping compatible with Abelian reduction methods

Supports Abelian reduction over ADS/CFT for nonperturbative QCD

Abstract

Although QCD can be treated perturbatively in the high energy limit, lower energies requre uses of nonperturbative methods such as ADS/CFT and/or Abelian reduction.These methods are not equivalent. In this paper we provide arguments in favor of the Abelian reduction methods. This is achieved by further developing results of our recent works reanalyzing Veneziano and Veneziano-like amplitudes and the models associated with these amplitudes. It is shown, that the obtained new partition function for these amplitudes can be mapped exactly into that for the Polychronakos-Frahm spin chain model recoverable from the Richardson-Gaudin XXX spin chain model used originally for treatments of the BCS-type superconductivity. Because of this, it is demonstrated that the obtained mapping is compatible with the method of Abelian reduction.
