Exact Black Hole Degeneracies and the Topological String
David Shih, Xi Yin
Motivated by the recent conjecture of Ooguri, Strominger and Vafa, we compute the semi-canonical partition function of BPS black holes in N=4 and N=8 string theories, to all orders…
Counting Dyons in N=8 String Theory
David Shih, Andrew Strominger, Xi Yin
A recently discovered relation between 4D and 5D black holes is used to derive exact (weighted) BPS black hole degeneracies for 4D N=8 string theory from the exactly known 5D degen…
Recounting Dyons in N=4 String Theory
David Shih, Andrew Strominger, Xi Yin
A recently discovered relation between 4D and 5D black holes is used to derive weighted BPS black hole degeneracies for 4D N=4 string theory from the well-known 5D degeneracies. Th…
5D Black Rings and 4D Black Holes
Davide Gaiotto, Andrew Strominger, Xi Yin
It has recently been shown that the M theory lift of a IIA 4D BPS Calabi-Yau black hole is a 5D BPS black hole spinning at the center of a Taub-NUT-flux geometries, and a certain l…
New Connections Between 4D and 5D Black Holes
D. Gaiotto, A. Strominger, X. Yin
A simple equality is proposed between the BPS partition function of a general 4D IIA Calabi-Yau black hole and that of a 5D spinning M-theory Calabi-Yau black hole. Combining with…
