Sumati Surya, Kristin Schleich, Donald M. Witt

TL;DR
This paper investigates the thermodynamics of Ricci flat adS black holes, revealing a phase transition influenced by temperature and black hole area, linked to confinement-deconfinement in gauge theories via adS/CFT.
Contribution
It demonstrates a novel phase transition dependent on black hole area, extending understanding of adS black hole thermodynamics and its gauge theory duals.
Findings
Phase transition depends on temperature and black hole area.
Transition related to confinement-deconfinement in gauge theory.
Reexamination using adS soliton as background.
Abstract
We reexamine the thermodynamics of adS black holes with Ricci flat horizons using the adS soliton as the thermal background. We find that there is a phase transition which is dependent not only on the temperature, but also on the black hole area, which is an independent parameter. As in the spherical adS black hole, this phase transition is related via the adS/CFT correspondence to a confinement-deconfinement transition in the large N gauge theory on the conformal boundary at infinity.
