The Hagedorn transition, deconfinement and =4 SYM theory
Open accessAbstract
N=4 Super Yang–Mills theory supplies us with a non-Abelian 4D gauge theory with a meaningful perturbation expansion, both in the UV and in the IR. We calculate the free energy on a 3-sphere and observe a deconfinement transition for large N at zero coupling. The same thermodynamic behaviour is found for a wide class of toy models, possibly also including the case of nonzero coupling. Below the transition we also find Hagedorn behaviour, which is identified with fluctuations signaling the approach to the deconfined phase. The Hagedorn and the deconfinement temperatures are identical. Application of the AdS/CFT correspondence gives a connection between string Hagedorn behaviour and black holes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
