The naive lowest energy state is unobtainable at one-loop for five or more colours due to simple geometry. The consequent adjustment of the vacuum condensate generates a hierarchy of confinement scales in a natural Higgs-free manner. QCD and QED-like forces emerge naturally, acting upon matter fields that may be interpreted as down quarks, up quarks and electrons.15 pages, latexHigh Energy Physics - Theorytext
