Asymptotic growth of the 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 index and partially deconfined phases

Abstract We study the Cardy-like asymptotics of the 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 index and demonstrate the existence of partially deconfined phases where the asymptotic growth of the index is not as rapid as in the fully deconfined case. We then take the large-N limit after the Cardy-like limit and ma...
