    added pointer to this review:

    If one assumes confinement, then [[SU(N)]]-QCD is equivalent to a theory of mesons (and glueballs) in which the (quartic) meson coupling constant is 1/N1/N.

    [..][..]

    [[here to stress that]] QCD is equivalent for any NN, including N=3N=3, to a meson theory in which 1/N1/N is the coupling constant, Large N is special only in that the meson coupling is only moderately weak.

    [..][..]

    These considerations remove all of the obstacles to interpreting baryons as the solitons of meson physics

    [..][..]

    There is every evidence that Skyrmions physics with varying couplings reproduces QCD baryons of varying NN.

    • Derek Harland, Chris Halcrow, Nucleon-nucleon potential from skyrmion dipole interactions (arXiv:2101.02633)

    The topic of this paper has a history of mistakes and sign errors in the literature. For both these reasons, we present our calculation in painstaking detail. [...][...].

    Compared with earlier attempts based on the Skyrme model, we obtain a very good match with the long-range parts of the Paris potential. Overall, these results provide an excellent starting point for describing the nucleon-nucleon interaction from the Skyrme model. Importantly, we can describe many features of the nucleon-nucleon interaction using a purely pionic theory. [...][...]

    our approach could be adapted to any model which treats nuclei as quantised solitons. This includes holographic QCD, where nuclei are described as instantons on a curved spacetime
