It is generally known for $\mathrm{U}(N)$ gauge theory at finite temperature that phase transitions are manifested by taking the large-$N$ limit. Since the large-$N$ theory undergoes two thermodynamic phase transitions, a nontrivial…
Our aim is to give a self-contained review of recent advances in the analytic description of the deconfinement transition and determination of the deconfinement temperature in lattice QCD at large N. We also include some new results, as for…
Starting from Wilson's action, we calculate strong coupling series for the Polyakov loop susceptibility in lattice gauge theories for various small N_\tau in the thermodynamic limit. Analysing the series with Pad\'e approximants, we…
We report on our ongoing investigation of the deconfining phase transition in SU(4) and SU(6) gauge theories. We calculate the critical couplings while taking care to avoid the influence of a nearby bulk phase transition. We determine the…
We consider the SU(2) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature in (d+1) dimensions, with different couplings $\beta_t$ and $\beta_s$ for timelike and spacelike plaquettes. By using the character expansion of the Wilson action and…
We review some analytic results on the deconfinement transition in pure lattice gauge theories. In particular we discuss the relationship between the deconfinement transition in the $(d+1)$-dimensional $SU(2)$ model and the magnetization…
A variational analysis of the pure SU(N) gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions at finite temperature is performed, extending the work of Kogan, Kovner and Milhano in hep-ph/0208053 . A de-confining phase transition is found at a temperature of 470…
We study the three dimensional fundamental-adjoint $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory at finite temperature by Monte Carlo simulations. We find that the finite temperature deconfinement phase transition line joins the first order bulk phase…
We study the thermal phase diagram of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory with fundamental and adjoint couplings. We improve previous estimates of the position of the bulk transition line and determine the thermal deconfinement transition lines…
We examine certain issues related to the universality of the SU(2) lattice gauge theory at non-zero temperatures. Using Monte Carlo simulations and strong coupling expansions, we study the behavior of the deconfinement transition in an…

Using the geometry of a double-layered torus we investigate the deconfining phase transition of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory by Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations. In one layer, called "outside", the temperature is set below the…
We consider large N zero-coupling d-dimensional U(N) gauge theories, with N_f matter fields in the fundamental representation on a compact spatial manifold S^{d-1} x time, with N_f/N finite. The Gauss' law constraint induces interactions…
The deconfinement transition in SU(4) lattice gauge theory is studied on N_s^3 X N_t lattices with N_s = 8-16 and N_t = 4-8 using a modified Wilson action which is expected to have no bulk transitions. The peak of susceptibility \chi_{|L|}…
We calculate the deconfining temperature of SO(N) gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions, and determine the order of the phase transition as a function of N, for various values of N in the range [4,16]. We do so by extrapolating our lattice…
Tensor networks offer a sign-problem-free approach to study lattice gauge theories, but extracting precise universal information associated with the deconfinement transition remains challenging. In this work, we study the deconfinement…
The deconfinement transition in SU(4) lattice gauge theory is investigated on N_s^3 X N_t lattices for N_s = 8-16 and N_t = 4-8 using a modified Wilson action which is expected to be free of any bulk transitions. The susceptibility…
We study analytically and numerically the three-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature in the dual formulation. For an appropriate disorder operator, we obtain the renormalization group equations describing the critical…
Critical properties of the compact three-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory are explored at finite temperatures. The critical point of the deconfinement phase transition, critical indices and the string tension are studied numerically on…
We investigate the large-N phase transition of lattice SU(N) gauge theories in the Wilson formulation, by performing a Monte Carlo simulation of the twisted Eguchi-Kawai model. A variant of the multicanonical algorithm allows a detailed…
