Abstract

We compute a one-loop effective action for the constant modes of the scalars and the Polyakov loop matrix of N = 4 SYM on S3 at finite temperature and weak ’t Hooft coupling. Above a critical temperature, the effective potential develops new unstable directions accompanied by new saddle points which...
