SUMMARY:k-String Tension from Eguchi-Kawai Reduction - Daniele Dorigoni (U

DESCRIPTION:The k-string can be thought of as a bound state of k fundament
 al QCD-strings. Its tension has been vastly discussed in the literature. I
 n particular\, most analytic approaches in the case of theories with adjoi
 nt fermions suggest that the k-string tension respect the Sine scaling. Af
 ter having introduced some basic facts about k-string I will discuss how t
 he use of Eguchi-Kawai dimensional reduction can help us in computing the 
 tension. As an explicit example I will discuss in details the reduction of
  adjoint-QCD from 3 to 2 dimensions in which the k-string tension can be c
 omputed under some assumptions\, whose validity I will analyse.
