Abstract: We report on the results of numerical simulations of $SU(N)$ lattice Yang Mills with two flavors of (light) Wilson fermion in the adjoint representation. We analytically and numerically address the question of center symmetry realization on lattices with $Gamma$ sites in each direction in the large-$N$ limit. We show, by a weak coupling calculation that, for massless fermions, center symmetry realization is independent of $Gamma$, and is unbroken. Then, we extend our result by conducting simulations at non zero mass and finite gauge coupling. Our results indicate that center symmetry is intact for a range of fermion mass in the vicinity of the critical line on lattices of volume $2^4$. This observation makes it possible to compute infinite volume physical observables using small volume simulations in the limit $Noinfty$, with possible applications to the determination of the conformal window in gauge theories with adjoint fermions.
