【 摘 要 】

We consider a higher-dimensional hard wall model with an infrared (IR) cut-off in asymptotically AdS space and investigate its thermodynamics via the holographic renormalization method. We find a relation between the confinement temperature and the IR cut-off for any dimension. It is also shown that the entropy of p-branes with the number of coincident branes (the number of the gauge group) N jumps from leading order in O(N0) at the confining low temperature phase to O(Np+12) at the deconfining high temperature phase like D3-branes (p=3) case. On the other hand, we calculate the configuration entropy (CE) of various magnitudes of an inverse temperature at an given IR cut-off scale. It is shown that as the inverse temperature grows up, the CE above the critical temperature decreases and AdS black hole (BH) is stable while it below the critical temperature is constant and thermal AdS (ThAdS) is stable. In particular, we also find that the CE below the critical temperature becomes constant and its magnitude increases as a dimension of AdS space increases.
