Directions
We are located at the 6th floor of the G.O. Jones Building on the Mile End Campus, midway between Stepney Green and Mile End Tube stations, approximately 15-20 minutes from central London on the Central or District lines. If exiting Stepney Green tube station, turn left and walk along the Mile End Road for approximately 300 metres. The G.O. Jones (Physics) building is to the right of the main college building, which is fronted by a clocktower and lawn. If exiting Mile End tube station, turn left and walk approximately 300 metres until you are opposite the main college building. A more detailed description can be found here.

Exact Degeneracies of Small Black Holes and the Topological String Amplitude
Triangular Seminar Boris Pioline (LPTHE, LPTENS)
| at: 15:00 room 410A Physics abstract: | Recently, Ooguri, Strominger and Vafa have proposed to identify the macroscopic Bekenstein-Hawking-Wald entropy of extremal charged Black Holes in type II string compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold, with the all order microscopic entropy in a specific statistical ensemble. We present a test of this conjecture in the case of 'small' black holes (which have zero Bekenstein-Hawking entropy at tree level, but obtain a non-zero entropy after quantum corrections) using heterotic / type II duality. We find a remarkable agreement to all orders in a class of N=2 and N=4 compactifications. Nevertheless, the OSV proposal misses non-perturbative corrections which are computable on the heterotic side. We comment on possible improvements of this proposal. |
