Abstract
Black holes in anti de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes undergo phase transitions which typically lead to the existence of critical points, that can be classified using topological techniques. Availing the Bragg-Williams construction which provides an off-shell free energy formalism, we compute the topological charge of the Hawking-Page (HP) transition for Einstein-Born-Infeld black holes in anti de Sitter spacetime and match the result with the confinement-deconfinement transition in the dual gauge theory, which turn out to be in perfect agreement.
