Thermal DBI action for the D3-brane at weak and strong coupling

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-17 v1

Abstract

We study the effective action for finite-temperature D3-branes with an electromagnetic field at weak and strong coupling. We call this action the thermal DBI action. Comparing at low temperature the leading T4T^4 correction for the thermal DBI action at weak and strong coupling we find that the 3/43/4 factor well-known from the AdS/CFT correspondence extends to the case of arbitrary electric and magnetic fields on the D3-brane. We investigate the reason for this by taking the decoupling limit in both the open and the closed string descriptions thus showing that the AdS/CFT correspondence extends to the case of arbitrary constant electric and magnetic fields on the D3-brane.
