Regular Seminar Sameer Murthy (King's)
at: 14:00 room G.O. Jones 610 abstract: | I will discuss the exact quantum entropy of supersymmetric black holes as a gravitational functional integral in AdS2. In theories with eight supercharges, a computation of the exact entropy is possible using supersymmetric localization. I will discuss this technique, and describe the computation of functional determinants that can be computed using index theorems. I will then compare the exact gravitational formula to microscopic formulas coming from string theory. |
