Abstract

For Yang-Mills theories in four dimensions, we propose to rescale the ratio between topological
susceptibility and string tension squared in a universal way, dependent only on group factors. We apply
this suggestion to SU(Nc ) and Sp(Nc ) groups, and compare lattice measurements performed by several
independent collaborations. We show that the two sequences of (rescaled) numerical results in these two
families of groups are compatible with each other. We hence perform a combined fit, and extrapolate to
the common large-Nc limit.
