On the existence of scaling multi-centered black holes
Pierre Descombes, Boris Pioline
For suitable charges of the constituents, the phase space of multi-centered BPS black holes in N=2 four-dimensional supergravity famously exhibits scaling regions where the distanc…
Conformal TBA for resolved conifolds
Sergei Alexandrov, Boris Pioline
We revisit the Riemann-Hilbert problem determined by Donaldson-Thomas invariants for the resolved conifold and for other small crepant resolutions. While this problem can be recast…
Multi-centered black holes, scaling solutions and pure-Higgs indices from localization
Guillaume Beaujard, Swapnamay Mondal, Boris Pioline
The Coulomb Branch Formula conjecturally expresses the refined Witten index for Quiver Quantum Mechanics as a sum over multi-centered collinear black hole solutions, weighted…
Heavenly metrics, BPS indices and twistors
Sergei Alexandrov, Boris Pioline
Recently T. Bridgeland defined a complex hyperkähler metric on the tangent bundle over the space of stability conditions of a triangulated category, based on a Riemann-Hilbert prob…
Attractor invariants, brane tilings and crystals
Sergey Mozgovoy, Boris Pioline
Supersymmetric D-brane bound states on a Calabi-Yau threefold are counted by generalized Donaldsdon-Thomas invariants , depending on a Chern character (or electromagnet…
Two-loop superstring five-point amplitudes II: Low energy expansion and S-duality
Eric D'Hoker, Carlos R. Mafra, Boris Pioline +1
In an earlier paper, we constructed the genus-two amplitudes for five external massless states in Type II and Heterotic string theory, and showed that the alpha' expansion of the T…
