Large $$N_\mathrm{f}$$ N f for multiple representations

Abstract We present an extension of the large- $$N_\mathrm{f}$$ N f formalism that allows one to study cases with multiple fermion representations. The pole structure in the beta function is traced back to the intrinsic non-abelian nature of the gauge group, independently from the fermion representa...
