From Hagedorn to Lee-Yang: partition functions of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM theory at finite N

Abstract We study the thermodynamics of the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group U(N ) on ℝ × S 3, dual to type IIB superstring theory on AdS5 × S 5. While both theories are well-known to exhibit Hagedorn behavior at infinite N , we find evidence that this is replaced by Lee-Y...
