Microscopic Entropy of Rotating Electrically Charged AdS Black Holes from Field Theory Localization

arXiv:1909.07943 · doi:10.1007/JHEP03(2020)081

Abstract

We employ supersymmetric localization to determine the exact partition function of 3d gauge theories on a background given by a round fibered over a circle and certain complexified background fields. The Coulomb branch localization locus includes monopole configurations, and the partition function reduces to a matrix model. We consider the partition function of the ABJM theory on this background as an explicit case. We verify that the large- limit of the ABJM theory partition function produces, in the Cardy limit, the entropy function of the dual rotating, electrically charged asymptotically AdS supersymmetric black holes and thus provides a microscopic explanation for the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy.
