We present a formula for the quantum entropy of supersymmetric five-dimensional spinning black holes in M-theory compactified on $CY_3$, i.e., BMPV black holes. We use supersymmetric localization in the framework of off-shell five…
We explore the BPS limit of asymptotically flat black hole thermodynamics, drawing analogies with recent studies of black holes in anti-de Sitter space. Although ultimately motivated by supersymmetry and quantum gravity, the BPS limit is…
We consider four-dimensional dyonic single-center BPS black holes in the $N=2$ STU model of Sen and Vafa. By working in a region of moduli space where the real part of two of the three complex scalars $S, T, U$ are taken to be large, we…
We study the one-loop partition function of superstrings in the $\mathrm{AdS}_3 \times \mathbf{S}^3 \times \mathbf{S}^3 \times \mathbf{S}^1$ background. Specifically, we show that the supergravity spectrum, which contains non-chiral primary…
We consider type IIB string theory on $\mathrm{AdS}_5\times S^5/\mathbb{Z}_{L}$ orbifold spaces with generic $L$. Recent localisation results in the dual 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ circular quiver gauge theories provide us with strong coupling…

We review recent progress concerning the quantum entropy of a large class of supersymmetric black holes in string theory both from the microscopic and macroscopic sides. On the microscopic field theory side, we present new results…
The string-black hole correspondence principle can be investigated in the non-BPS scenario by studying the string configuration and entropy when the string coupling is slowly increased. Through a rigorous analysis, it is shown how an…
Scaling black holes are solutions of supergravity with multiple black hole singularities, which can be adiabatically connected to a single center black hole solution. We develop techniques to determine partition functions for such scaling…
