On the exact entropy of $\mathcal{N}=2$ black holes

Abstract

We study the exact entropy of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ black holes in M-theory both from the brane and supergravity points of view. On the microscopic side the degeneracy is given by a Fourier coefficient of the elliptic genus of the dual two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,4)$ SCFT and can be extracted via a Rademacher expansion. We show how this expansion is mapped to a modified OSV formula derived by Denef and Moore. On the macroscopic side the degeneracy is computed by applying localization techniques to Sen's quantum entropy functional reducing it to a finite number of integrals. The measure for this finite dimensional integral is determined using a connection with Chern-Simons theory on AdS${}_2\times$S${}^1$. The leading answer is a Bessel function in agreement with the microscopic answer. Other subleading corrections can be explained in terms of instanton contributions.
