Genus Two Partition Functions of Extremal Conformal Field Theories
Davide Gaiotto, Xi Yin
Recently Witten conjectured the existence of a family of "extremal" conformal field theories (ECFTs) of central charge c=24k, which are supposed to be dual to three-dimensional pur…

Notes on Superconformal Chern-Simons-Matter Theories
Davide Gaiotto, Xi Yin
The three dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter fields, possibly deformed by a superpotential, give rise to a large class of exactly conformal theori…

Black Hole Deconstruction
Frederik Denef, Davide Gaiotto, Andrew Strominger +2
A D4-D0 black hole can be deconstructed into a bound state of D0 branes with a D6-anti-D6 pair containing worldvolume fluxes. The exact spacetime solution is known and resembles a…
