String tensions and deconfinement transition in the SU(4) center vortex   model
  A center vortex model for the infrared sector of SU(4) Yang-Mills theory is constructed such as to reproduce both the ratio between the zero-temperature quark and diquark string tensions known from lattice Yang-Mills theory, as well as the properties of the deconfinement transition. On this basis, the temperature dependence of the spatial quark and diquark string tensions is predicted. Though still phenomenologically viable, details of the construction of the SU(4) center vortex model corroborate previous arguments that modeling infrared Yang-Mills dynamics purely in terms of vortex world-surface characteristics may become less appropriate as the number of colors is increased.
