Abstract

In this note we derive N 3-behavior at large ’t Hooft coupling for the free energy of 5D maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on S 5. We also consider a Z k quiver of this model, as well as a model with M hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We compare the results to the supergravity description and comment on their relation.
