Abstract

In the SU(3) pure gauge theory the high temperature deconfinement phase transition is first order. At the transition the confined phase coexists with three distinct deconfined phases. The interfaces separating the various phases show universal critical behavior when the confined phase completely wets the deconfined-deconfined interfaces. The critical exponents of complete wetting are derived from an interface solution of a Z(3) symmetric effective theory for the Polyakov loop. When complete wetting occurs in the pure glue theory the deconfinement transition proceeds via domain wall splitting. When quarks are present wetting disappears and the standard bubble nucleation scenario applies.
