Instantons and the large N_c limit, A.D. 2004
  We review our current understanding of instanton effects in the large N_c limit of QCD. We argue that the instanton liquid can have a smooth large N_c limit which is in agreement with scaling relations derived from Feynman diagrams. We also discuss certain limits of QCD, like the case of high baryon density, in which the Witten-Veneziano relation can be derived from QCD and is saturated by instantons.
