We study the topologically twisted index of a certain Chern-Simons matter theory with $SU(N)$ level $k$ gauge group on a genus $g$ Riemann surface times a circle. For this theory it is known that the logarithm of the topologically twisted…
We present a simple closed form expression for the topologically twisted index of the ABJM theory as a function of the magnetic fluxes and complex chemical potentials valid at fixed $k$ and to all orders in the $1/N$ expansion. This in turn…
We study the topologically twisted index of $\mathcal{N}=6$ supersymmetric Chern-Simons matter theory with $U(N)_k \times U(N)_{-k}$ gauge group in the 't Hooft limit, that is, for $N, k \, \to \infty$ with $\lambda=N/k$ fixed. In the…
We present a counting of microstates of a class of dyonic BPS black holes in AdS$_4$ which precisely reproduces their Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. The counting is performed in the dual boundary description, that provides a non-perturbative…
We derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy for a class of BPS black holes in the massive type IIA supergravity background AdS$_4 \times S^6$ from a microscopic counting of supersymmetric ground states in a holographically dual field theory.…
This paper addresses a long standing problem, the counting of the microstates of supersymmetric asymptotically AdS black holes in terms of a holographically dual field theory. We focus on a class of asymptotically AdS$_4$ static black holes…
We compute the topologically twisted index for general $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric field theories on $\mathbb{H}_2\times S^1$. We also discuss asymptotically $AdS_4$ magnetically charged black holes with hyperbolic horizon, in…
We employ supersymmetric localization to determine the exact partition function of 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories on a background given by a round $S^2$ fibered over a circle and certain complexified background fields. The Coulomb branch…
We study the large $N$ limit of some supersymmetric partition functions of the $\mathrm{U}(N)_{k}\times \mathrm{U}(N)_{-k}$ ABJM theory computed by supersymmetric localization. We conjecture an explicit expression, valid to all orders in…
The partition function on the three-sphere of ABJM theory and its generalizations has, at large N, a universal, subleading logarithmic term. Inspired by the success of one-loop quantum gravity for computing the logarithmic corrections to…
Within eleven dimensional supergravity we compute the logarithmic correction to the entropy of magnetically charged asymptotically AdS${}_4$ black holes with arbitrary horizon topology. We find perfect agreement with the expected…
We continue the effort of defining and evaluating the quantum entropy function for supersymmetric black holes in 4d ${\cal N} = 2$ gauged supergravity, initiated in [1803.05920]. The emphasis here is on the missing steps in the previous…
