Abstract

Using an effective description of the thermal partition function for SU(2) sector of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory in terms of interacting random walks we compute the partition function in planar limit as well as give the leading non-planar contribution. The result agrees with existent approaches in what concerns the zero coupling and one-loop Hagedorn temperature computation.
