A non-standard off-shell quantization of the worldsheet metric yields a self-consistent vacuum configuration and Hagedorn temperatures for confining holographic theories, reproducing known next-to-leading order and providing new partial next-to-next-to-leading order predictions.

abstract
We propose a general formula for higher order corrections to the value of the Hagedorn temperature of a class of holographic confining gauge theories in the strong coupling expansion. Inspired by recent proposals in the literature, the formula combines the sigma-model string expansion with an effective approach. In particular, it includes the sigma-model contributions to the Hagedorn temperature at next-to-next-to leading order, which are computed in full generality. For ${\cal N}=4$ SYM on $S^3$ our result agrees with numerical field theory estimates with excellent precision. We use the general formula to predict the value of the Hagedorn temperature for ABJM on $S^2$ and for the dual of purely RR global $AdS_3$.

Vacuum configuration of winding superstrings from non-standard semiclassical quantization
A non-standard off-shell quantization of the worldsheet metric yields a self-consistent vacuum configuration and Hagedorn temperatures for confining holographic theories, reproducing known next-to-leading order and providing new partial next-to-next-to-leading order predictions.
