Black Hole Berry Phase
Jan de Boer, Kyriakos Papadodimas, Erik Verlinde
Supersymmetric black holes are characterized by a large number of degenerate ground states. We argue that these black holes, like other quantum mechanical systems with such a degen…
The chiral ring of AdS3/CFT2 and the attractor mechanism
Jan de Boer, Jan Manschot, Kyriakos Papadodimas +1
We study the moduli dependence of the chiral ring in N = (4,4) superconformal field theories, with special emphasis on those CFTs that are dual to type IIB string theory on AdS3xS3…
Nonsupersymmetric Brane/Antibrane Configurations in Type IIA and M Theory
Joseph Marsano, Kyriakos Papadodimas, Masaki Shigemori
We study metastable nonsupersymmetric configurations in type IIA string theory, obtained by suspending D4-branes and anti-D4-branes between holomorphically curved NS5's, which are…
S-duality and a large N phase transition in N=4 SYM on K3 at strong coupling
Kyriakos Papadodimas
We study the supersymmetric partition function of {\cal N}= 4 super Yang-Mills with gauge group SU(N) on K3 in the large N, fixed g limit and show that it undergoes a first order p…
The Phase Structure of Low Dimensional Large N Gauge Theories on Tori
Ofer Aharony, Joseph Marsano, Shiraz Minwalla +3
In this paper we continue our study of the thermodynamics of large N gauge theories on compact spaces. We consider toroidal compactifications of pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theories and…
Minisuperspace Quantization of "Bubbling AdS" and Free Fermion Droplets
Lars Grant, Liat Maoz, Joseph Marsano +2
We quantize the space of 1/2 BPS configurations of Type IIB SUGRA found by Lin, Lunin and Maldacena (hep-th/0409174), directly in supergravity. We use the Crnkovic-Witten-Zuckerman…
