30 Confinement-deconfinement transition P.I. sum over geometries with same boundary dominated by lowest action (infinite volume) phase transition: β c =2πR 0 (T c =1/2πR 0 ) (Hawking-Page phase transition) field theory: confinement-deconfinement phase transition T < T c : T > T c : AdS-soliton, confined, N-independent spectrum Black-brane, deconfined, O(N 2 ) states not real QCD: KK-modes do not decouple Λ QCD 1 R 0
31 AdS/CFT and QCD advantage: can examine QCD-like theories (but not QCD...) minus: qualitative geometric interpretation of Wilson-loop confinement-deconfinement transition easy to compute at finite T cf. hydrodynamics and quark-gluon plasma N, λ : handles strong coupling, large N region exact solutions, integrability weakly coupled gauge theory highly curved string background at weak coupling, KK-modes important
