Residue sums for superconformal indices

Sam van Leuven, Kayleigh Mathieson, Pratik Roy

We study superconformal indices of four-dimensional gauge theories with supersymmetry. The usual representation of a gauge theory index involves multipl…

Two-local modifications of SYK model with quantum chaos

Masanori Hanada, Sam van Leuven, Onur Oktay +1

The Sachdev--Ye--Kitaev (SYK) model may provide us with a good starting point for the experimental study of quantum chaos and holography in the laboratory. Still, the four-local in…

Residues, modularity, and the Cardy limit of the 4d superconformal index

Kevin Goldstein, Vishnu Jejjala, Yang Lei +2

We compute the superconformal index of the Yang-Mills theory through a residue calculation. The method is similar in spirit to the Bethe Ansatz formalism, e…

Probing the EVH limit of supersymmetric AdS black holes

Kevin Goldstein, Vishnu Jejjala, Yang Lei +2

Extremal black holes in general dimensions are well known to contain an AdS factor in their near-horizon geometries. If the extremal limit is taken in conjunction with a specif…

Information Transfer and Black Hole Evaporation via Traversable BTZ Wormholes

Shinji Hirano, Yang Lei, Sam van Leuven

We study traversable wormholes by considering the duality between BTZ black holes and two-dimensional conformal field theory on the thermofield double state. The BTZ black holes ca…

Generalized Toda Theory from Six Dimensions and the Conifold

Sam van Leuven, Gerben Oling

Recently, a physical derivation of the Alday-Gaiotto-Tachikawa correspondence has been put forward. A crucial role is played by the complex Chern-Simons theory arising in the 3d-3d…
