Abstract
It is shown that the renormalized finite temperature effective potential for continuum Yang-Mills theory develops a non-perturbative minimum for sufficiently strong coupling, i.e. below a critical temperature. The corresponding phase can be the candidate for the confining phase of the continuum theory and becomes energetically favoured basicly due to the decay of the condensate into three gluons.
