Superconformal indices and black hole saddles
Maciej Kolanowski, Donald Marolf, Zi-Yue Wang +1
The AdS/CFT correspondence implies that the superconformal index in SU(N) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be computed using the dual bulk theor…

Axions Create Singularities on Extremal Horizons
Gary T. Horowitz, Maciej Kolanowski, Grant N. Remmen +1
We show that axions cause extremal black holes to have singular horizons. This is true for almost all values of the axion mass and coupling provided the black hole is rotating and…

How to tame your (black hole) saddles: Lessons from the Lorentzian Gravitational Path Integral
Maciej Kolanowski, Donald Marolf
We resolve a puzzle associated with the spherically-symmetric sector of the AdS Einstein-Maxwell partition function with inverse temperature . Since charge is quantized, the…
