Abstract

We present results for Wilson loops smoothed with the Yang-Mills gradient\nflow and matched through the scale t₀. They provide renormalized and precise\noperators allowing to test the 1/N² scaling both at finite lattice spacing\nand in the continuum limit. Our results show an excellent scaling up to 1/N =\n1/3. Additionally, we obtain a very precise non-perturbative confirmation of\nfactorization in the large N limit.\n
