Another weak first order deconfinement transition: three-dimensional SU(5) gauge theory
arXiv:hep-lat/0509041 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2006/01/023
Abstract
We examine the finite-temperature deconfinement phase transition of (2+1)-dimensional SU(5) Yang-Mills theory via non-perturbative lattice simulations. Unsurprisingly, we find that the transition is of first order, however it appears to be weak. This fits naturally into the general picture of "large" gauge groups having a first order deconfinement transition, even when the center symmetry associated with the transition might suggest otherwise.
