Localization of strings on group manifolds
Sameer Murthy, Edward Witten
The paper computes the partition function of Wess‑Zumino‑Witten models on compact Lie groups by applying supersymmetric localization, expressing it as a sum over abelian classical…
A Note on Corrections to Entanglement Wedge Reconstruction
Edward Witten
If entanglement wedge reconstruction is exact, then (under certain assumptions) the area term in the RT formula is a c-number, indicating that the choice of a bulk quantum state do…
Introduction to Black Hole Thermodynamics
Edward Witten
These notes aim to provide an introduction to the basics of black hole thermodynamics. After explaining Bekenstein's original proposal that black holes have entropy, we discuss Haw…
Instantons and the Large N=4 Algebra
Edward Witten
We investigate the differential geometry of the moduli space of instantons on S^3 x S^1. Extending previous results, we show that a sigma-model with this target space can be expect…
