AdS$_5$ Black Hole Entropy near the BPS Limit

High Energy Physics - Theory 2020-06-24 v2

Abstract

We analyze AdS5_5 black holes that are nearly supersymmetric. They depart from the BPS limit in two distinct ways: a temperature takes them above extremality and a potential violates a certain constraint. We study the thermodynamics of these deformations and their interplay in detail. We discuss recent microscopic computations of BPS black hole entropy in N=4\mathcal{N}=4 SYM and generalize methods to the nearBPS regime by relaxing constraints imposed by supersymmetry. The computations recover gravitational results from microscopics also for nearBPS black holes.
