Large Nc means Nc=3


Abstract in English

We show that the nonperturbative solution of the SU(2) linear sigma model field theory requires color number Nc=3. Also, we show that the three-point and four-point functions bootstrap (or nonperturbatively ``shrink) in the chiral limit to the tree amplitudes. Independently, we show that a chiral phase transition for Nf=2 requires Tc=180 MeV, consistent with the computer lattice value (173 +/- 8 MeV).
