Abstract
We use the method of orthonormal polynomials to investigate the large N limit of the two‐dimensional lattice gauge theory. The 1/N2 and 1/N4 corrections to the vacuum energy and the expectation value of the Wilson loop operator are calculated in the low temperature phase (λ ≡g2 NN becomes large, and hence there are no 1/N corrections in this phase.Keywords
