We first study a theory with $N_f$ fermions in the fundamental representation and $N_{f'}$ fermions in the adjoint or symmetric or antisymmetric rank-2 tensor representation, in the limit $N_c \\to \\infty$, $N_f \\to \\infty$ with $N_f/N_c$ fixed and finite. We then study the $N_c \\to \\infty$ limit of a theory with fermions in the adjoint and rank-2 symmetric or antisymmetric tensor representations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-22T18:38:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gauge theories", "gauge-invariant fermion bilinear operators", "antisymmetric tensor representations", "scheme-independent series expansions", "fundamental representation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
