We review and extend earlier work that uses the AdS/CFT correspondence to relate the black hole-black string transition of gravitational theories on a circle to a phase transition in maximally supersymmetric 1+1-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories at large N, again compactified on a circle. We perform gravity calculations to determine a likely phase diagram for the strongly coupled gauge theory. We then directly study the phase structure of the same gauge theory, now at weak 't Hooft coupling. In the interesting temperature regime for the phase transition, we may reduce the 1+1-dimensional theory to a 0+1-dimensional bosonic theory, which we solve using Monte Carlo methods. We find strong evidence that the weakly coupled gauge theory also exhibits a black hole-black string like phase transition in the large N limit. We demonstrate that a simple Landau-Ginzburg like model describes the behaviour near the phase transition remarkably well. The weak coupling transition appears to be close to the cusp between a first order and a second order transition.

Finite-temperature phase diagram of the BMN matrix model on the lattice
Non-perturbative lattice calculations determine the BMN deconfinement temperature from the perturbative to the holographic regime, with evidence that the transition becomes continuous at weak coupling.

Gram--Wishart--Stiefel formulation of the $N=2$, large--$d$ gauge theory in 1D
Gram/Wishart/Stiefel reformulation of N=2 large-d BFSS/BMN endpoints absorbs -A into a shifted mass and recovers the universal continuum -2d DΛ-channel after non-polynomial transverse completion.
