Evaluation of the free energy of two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory

The free energy in the weak-coupling phase of two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a sphere for [Formula presented] and [Formula presented] is evaluated in the [Formula presented] expansion using the techniques of Gross and Matytsin. Many features of Yang-Mills theory are universal among different gauge groups in the large [Formula presented] limit, but significant differences arise in subleading order in [Formula presented]. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
