Description
Applying the AdS/CFT correspondence, the expansion of the
heavy-quark potential of the ${\cal N}$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills
theory at large $N_c$ is carried out to the sub-leading term in the
large 't Hooft coupling at both zero and nonzero temperatures. The strong coupling
corresponds to the semi-classical expansion of the string-sigma
model, the gravity dual of the Wilson loop operator, with the
sub-leading term expressed in terms of functional determinants of
fluctuations. The contribution of these determinants are evaluated
numerically.
