A second order deconfinement transition for large N 2+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a small two-sphere

Kyriakos Papadodimas, Hsien-Hang Shieh, Mark Van Raamsdonk

We study the thermodynamics of large N pure 2+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory on a small spatial sphere. By studying the effective action for the Polyakov loop order parameter, we…
