N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory supplies us with a non-Abelian 4D gauge theory with a meaningful perturbation expansion, both in the UV and in the IR. We calculate the free energy on a 3-sphere and observe a deconfinement transition for large N at zero coupling. The same thermodynamic behaviour is found for a wide class of toy models, possibly also including the case of non-zero coupling. Below the transition we also find Hagedorn behaviour, which is identified with fluctuations signalling the approach to the deconfined phase. The Hagedorn and the deconfinement temperatures are identical. Application of the AdS/CFT correspondence gives a connection between string Hagedorn behaviour and black holes.

Anomalies, a mod 2 index, and dynamics of 2d adjoint QCD
Two-dimensional adjoint QCD has mixed 't Hooft anomalies that force spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking for most N and partial deconfinement of N-ality N/2 charges for even N.

Overcrowding and the Finite-$N$ Hilbert Space
For d Hermitian N x N matrices, any all-single-trace choice of primary coordinates must miss a trace direction by degree 2 log_d N + log_d log_d N + O(1), parametrically below the first trace identity.

Critical dimensions and small cycle dominance from all-orders asymptotics of $d$-matrix theory
The weighted partition numbers of d-matrix theory admit an all-orders asymptotic expansion that switches from divergent to convergent at d=13 (bosonic) or 7 (fermionic).

The CFT Distance Conjecture and Tensionless String Limits in $\mathcal N=2$ Quiver Gauge Theories
In N=2 SU quiver theories the large-N Hagedorn temperature depends only on quiver length for linear cases and equals that of N=4 SYM for holographic quivers, with a universal lower bound of 1/sqrt(2) on the exponentia...

Negative heat capacities in spherically symmetric sectors of $d$-matrix quantum mechanics
SO(d) and O(d) invariant sectors of d-matrix QM show negative microcanonical heat capacity that becomes positive at k_crit ~ N^2/4, forming a caloric fold similar to AdS black holes.

Gravitational index, black hole saddle degeneracy, and one-form symmetry
The |G|-fold degeneracy of supersymmetric AdS5 black hole index saddles is fixed by the flux-quantized BF coupling of the bulk one-form symmetry and persists unmodified in the decompactified black-brane limit.

Instanton condensation and a new phase of BPS black holes
Instanton condensation in the matrix model for the BPS index reveals a new instability and dominant phase for small black holes, connected to partial deconfinement.

New phases in QCD at finite temperature and chemical potential
In the Veneziano large-N_c limit, QCD at finite baryon chemical potential has two partially deconfined phases (PD-1, PD-2) and two confined phases (CC-1, CC-2), separated by a Gross-Witten-Wadia transition that can be...

An Analytic Zeta Function Ramp at the Black Hole Thouless Time
The log-spectrum SFF equals |ζ(β+it)|^2; after removing the dip the β=0 ramp is exactly linear with slope 1 and time-average (π/24)t, giving an O(1) Thouless time.

Wilson Towers as Local Bulk Fields
A multi-winding Wilson loop in thermal AdS3 is re-expressed as a sum over single-winding Wilson loops, one per multi-trace primary, so a free bulk field becomes a tower of Wilson lines.

Quantum-corrected black hole thermodynamics from the gravitational path integral
Including off-shell geometries at one-loop order in the ensemble-averaged path integral yields logarithmic entropy corrections and a phase diagram with zero-order phase transitions for RN-AdS black holes.
