Superconformal Black Hole Quantum Mechanics
Davide Gaiotto, Andrew Strominger, Xi Yin
In recent work, the superconformal quantum mechanics describing D0 branes in the AdS_2xS^2xCY_3 attractor geometry of a Calabi-Yau black hole with D4 brane charges p^A has been con…
D0-branes in Black Hole Attractors
Davide Gaiotto, Aaron Simons, Andrew Strominger +1
Configurations of N probe D0-branes in a Calabi-Yau black hole are studied. A large degeneracy of near-horizon bound states are found which can be described as lowest Landau levels…
Minimal Superstrings and Loop Gas Models
Davide Gaiotto, Leonardo Rastelli, Tadashi Takayanagi
We reformulate the matrix models of minimal superstrings as loop gas models on random surfaces. In the continuum limit, this leads to the identification of minimal superstrings wit…
