High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

We study two Polyakov loop correlators in large NN limit of N=4{\cal{N}}=4 super Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature using the AdS-Schwarzschild black hole. In the case that one of the two loops is of the anti-symmetric representation, we use D5-branes to evaluate them. The phase structure of these correlators is also examined. A previous result, derived in hep-th/9803135 and hep-th/9803137, is realized as a limiting case.}
