The Hagedorn/Deconfinement Phase Transition in Weakly Coupled Large N Gauge Theories
Ofer Aharony, Joseph Marsano, Shiraz Minwalla +2
We demonstrate that weakly coupled, large N, d-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories on a class of compact spatial manifolds (including S^{d-1} \times time) undergo deconfinement phase…

Evolution of D-branes Under Closed String Tachyon Condensation
Shiraz Minwalla, Tadashi Takayanagi
We study the evolution of stable D-branes of C/Z_n and twisted circle theories in the process of closed string tachyon condensation. We interpret the fractional branes in these bac…
