| contents | We study the multiplicity of irreducible representations in the decomposition of $n$ fundamentals of $SU(N)$ weighted by a power of their dimension in the large $n$ and large $N$ double scaling limit. A nontrivial scaling is obtained by keeping $n/N^2$ fixed, which plays the role of an order parameter. We find that the system generically undergoes a fourth order phase transition in this parameter, from a dense phase to a dilute phase. The transition is enhanced to third order for the unweighted multiplicity, and disappears altogether when weighting with the first power of the dimension. This corresponds to the infinite temperature partition function of non-Abelian ferromagnets, and the results should be relevant to the thermodynamic limit of such ferromagnets at high temperatures. |
