Description

Large-N two dimensional QCD was solved 50 years ago by 't Hooft.
The model is an example of confinement and chiral symmetry breaking and it resembles real world QCD.
Yet, despite of several efforts the string dual of the model is not known.
In this talk I will present a worldline derivation of the solution of 2d QCD and a preliminary results about the worldsheet theory of the dual string.
This work is done in collaboration with Shigeki Sugimoto.
