We show that nuclear interactions are SU(4) symmetric at leading order in chiral perturbation theory in the large-N limit of QCD. The nucleons and delta resonances form a 20-dimensional representation of SU(4) and we show how Wigner's supermultiplet symmetry SU(4)_{sm}, under which the nucleons transform as a 4-dimensional representation, follows as an accidental low energy symmetry. Exploiting SU(4) symmetry allows one to express the 18 independent leading nucleon, delta interaction operators invariant under spin and isospin symmetries in terms of only two couplings. The three flavor analogue allows one to express the 28 leading octet, decuplet interactions also in terms of only two couplings, which has implications for hypernuclei and strangeness in ``neutron'' stars.

The Baryon-Baryon Interaction in the Large-$N_c$ Limit
A large-N_c analysis of the chiral baryon-baryon potential cuts the leading-order contact couplings from fifteen to three and fixes F/D=2/3 and C/D=2.

Quantum Simulation of Large N Lattice Gauge Theories
At leading order in 1/N_c, SU(3) lattice Yang-Mills reduces to a PXP spin model with one qubit per plaquette, enabling simpler quantum simulation encodings.
