I review some recent progresses in counting the number of microstates of AdS
supersymmetric black holes in dimension equal or greater than four using holography. The …

A bstract Some AdS 3× M 7 type IIB vacua have been recently proposed to arise from D3-
branes wrapped on a spindle, a sphere with conical singularities at the poles. We explicitly …

We introduce an entropy function for supersymmetric accelerating black holes in four-
dimensional anti–de Sitter space that uplift on general Sasaki-Einstein manifolds X 7 to …

We consider non-relativistic conformal quantum mechanical theories that arise by doing
discrete light cone quantization of field theories. If the field theory has a gravity dual, then the …

We derive a gravitational block formula for the supersymmetric action for a general class of
supersymmetric AdS solutions, described by GK geometry. Extremal points of this action …

We show that the five-dimensional Maxwell theory with the Chern-Simons term is tachyonic
in the presence of a constant electric field. When coupled to gravity, a sufficiently large …

A bstract We systematically study various sub-leading structures in the superconformal index
of\(\mathcal {N}\)= 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with SU (N) gauge group. We …

The large N limit of the four-dimensional superconformal index was computed and
successfully compared to the entropy of a class of AdS 5 black holes only in the particular …

A bstract We study the superconfomal index of four-dimensional toric quiver gauge theories
using a Bethe Ansatz approach recently applied by Benini and Milan. Relying on a particular …

A bstract We systematically analyze the large-N limit of the superconformal index
of\(\mathcal {N}\)= 1 superconformal theories having a quiver description. The index of these …
