Abstract: We calculate the one loop effective potential for a 5D SU(2) gauge field theory at finite temperature and radius R=1/M. This calculation is performed, for the first time, in the case of background fields with two constant components Ay3 (directed towards the compact extra dimension with radius R) and Aau3 (directed towards the compact Euclidean time with radius ). This model possesses two discrete symmetries known as Z_{M}(2) and Z_{T}(2). The corresponding phase diagram is presented in Ref. 4. However the arguments which lead to this diagram are mainly qualitative. We present a detailed analysis, from our point of view, for this phase diagram, and we support our arguments performing lattice simulations for a simple phenomenological model with two scalar fields interacting through the previously calculated potential.
