We determine the theta dependence of the deconfinement temperature of SU(3) pure gauge theory, finding that it decreases in presence of a topological theta term. We do that by performing lattice simulations at imaginary theta, then exploiting analytic continuation. We also give an estimate of such dependence in the limit of a large number of colors N, and compare it with our numerical results.

  1. Confinement in Holographic Theories at Finite Theta

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Holographic 5D model shows confinement critical temperature falls quadratically with vacuum angle, matches lattice QCD, and allows time-dependent theta to trigger supercooling and altered gravitational-wave spectra.

  2. Low-energy hadronic physics in holographic $\mathrm{QCD_{3}}$ with anisotropy

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In an anisotropic holographic model of 3D QCD, hadronic systems become unstable when anisotropy exceeds the confinement energy scale, with dragging terms essential for transport properties.
