Abstract

We consider a configuration of strings and solitons in the type IIB superstring theory on M5×T5M^5\times T^5, which is composed of a set of arbitrarily-wound D-fivebranes on T5T^5 and a set of arbitrarily-wound D-strings on S1S^1 of the torus. For the configuration, it is shown that number of microscopic states is bounded from above by the exponential of the Hawking-Bekenstein entropy of the corresponding black hole and the temperature of closed string radiation from the D-branes is bounded from below by the Hawking temperature of the black hole. After discussing the necessary and sufficient condition to saturate these bounds, we give some speculations about black hole thermodynamics.
