Quantized Giant Gravitons as the Periodic Table of Supersymmetric States: D3, M2 and M5

Evan Deddo, Sabarenath Jayaprakash, James T. Liu +1

We consider giant gravitons in the probe approximation when they are described by classical brane configurations in AdS wrapping a particular -cycle and sp…

The Superconformal Index and Black Hole Instabilities

Evan Deddo, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Wenjie Zhou

The superconformal index of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group has provided powerful insights into the entropy of supersymmetric black h…

Explicit Entropic Proofs of Irreversibility Theorems for Holographic RG Flows

Evan Deddo, James T. Liu, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas +1

We revisit the existence of monotonic quantities along renormalization group flows using only the Null Energy Condition and the Ryu-Takayanagi formula for the entanglement entropy…

The Giant Graviton Expansion from Bubbling Geometry

Evan Deddo, James T. Liu, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas +1

The superconformal index of half-BPS states in supersymmetric Yang-Mills with gauge group admits an expansion in terms of giant gravitons, ${\cal I}_N(q)={\cal…

Binary AdS black holes coupled to a bath in Type IIB

Evan Deddo, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Christoph F. Uhlemann

We construct Type IIB string theory setups which, via double holography, realize two gravitational systems in separate AdS spaces which interact with each other and with a non-grav…
