The superconformal index and localizing higher derivative supergravity

High Energy Physics - Theory 2026-04-13 v1

Abstract

We show how equivariant localization can be used to compute the on-shell action for supersymmetric D=5D=5 AdSAdS rotating, charged black holes in theories of supergravity with higher derivatives. An exact match with a dual field theory computation of the superconformal index in a Cardy-like limit is achieved.
