Proving the OSV conjecture with the gravitational path integral
Nikolay Bobev, Jan Boruch, Luca V. Iliesiu +1
The OSV conjecture relates the helicity supertrace of black holes in supergravity obtained through a Calabi--Yau compactification of Type IIA string theory to…
Scale-Covariant Holography
Nikolay Bobev, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason
We explore a vast landscape of scale-covariant string backgrounds that arise from the backreaction of D-branes. In a convenient Weyl frame the metric has an AdS factor and the d…
Macroscopic origin of the topologically twisted index on
Nikolay Bobev, Vasil Dimitrov, Dario Martelli
We construct a novel family of non-supersymmetric, asymptotically locally AdS solutions of five-dimensional minimal gauged supergravity. In Lorentzian signature the solutions d…
Holographic Tests of the Ensemble
Nikolay Bobev, Fridrik Freyr Gautason, Jesse van Muiden
We study in detail a recent proposal stating that M-theory observables arising from the quantisation of M2-branes are naturally computed in a fixed ensemble. In a holographic…
CFTs on Squashed Spheres and the Thermal Effective Action
Klaas Parmentier, Nikolay Bobev
We study three-dimensional CFTs on compact Euclidean manifolds in two complementary limits: small deformations of the round and the small-fiber, large-squashing limit of Seif…
Towards OSV in AdS
Nikolay Bobev, Sunjin Choi, Junho Hong +1
We use supersymmetric localization for 3d SCFTs to establish a relation of the form between the superconformal index and the…
