We construct super AdS black holes in 2+1 dimensions in terms of Chern Simons gauge theory of N=(1,1) super AdS group coupled to a (super)source. We take the source to be a super AdS state specified by its Casimir invariants. We show that…
Using the pure spinor formalism for the superstring in an $AdS_5\times S^5$ background, a simple expression is found for half-BPS vertex operators. At large radius, these vertex operators reduce to the usual supergravity vertex operators in…
Highly energetic particles traveling in the background of an asymptotically AdS black hole experience a Shapiro time delay and an angle deflection. These quantities are related to the Regge limit of a heavy-heavy-light-light four-point…
We construct a new class of rotating AdS black hole solutions with non-compact event horizons of finite area in any dimension and study their thermodynamics. In four dimensions these black holes are solutions to gauged supergravity. We find…
We find and study supergravity BPS bound states of five-dimensional spinning black holes in asymptotically flat spacetime. These solutions follow from multi-string solutions in six-dimensional minimal supergravity and can be uplifted to…
In this dissertation we explore various aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence. As string quantization on general backgrounds with fluxes is very difficult, one often uses the duality at the level of canonical fields of supergravity and the…
In matter coupled $F(4)$ gauged supergravity in six dimensions, we study supersymmetric $AdS_6$ black holes with various horizon geometries. We find new $AdS_2\,\times\,\Sigma_{\mathfrak{g}_1}\times\Sigma_{\mathfrak{g}_2}$ horizons with…
We give a construction of general holomorphic quarter BPS operators in $ \mathcal{N}=4$ SYM at weak coupling with $U(N)$ gauge group at finite $N$. The construction employs the M\"obius inversion formula for set partitions, applied to…
We construct a general class of non-extremal charged Kerr-de Sitter black holes in five dimensions, in which the two rotation parameters are set equal. There are three non-trivial parameters, namely the mass, charge and angular momentum.…
We study the flow equations for BPS black holes in $\mathcal{N} = 2$ five-dimensional gauged supergravity coupled to any number of vector multiplets via FI couplings. We develop the Noether-Wald procedure in this context and exhibit the…
We relate the structure of non-perturbative corrections to BPS black hole observables in flat-spacetime theories with certain properties of probe charged particles in the near-horizon geometry. Concretely, we consider 4d $\mathcal{N} = 2$…
We investigate properties of the five-dimensional Chern--Simons AdS black hole coupled to $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ solitons by means of a minisuperspace approximation adapted to static, spherically symmetric configurations. The reduced action…
We compute the physical charges and discuss the properties of a large class of five-dimensional extremal AdS black holes by using the near horizon data. Our examples include baryonic and electromagnetic black branes, as well as…
Following earlier work by Polyakov and Gubser, Klebanov and Polyakov, we attempt to clarify the structure of vertex operators representing string states which have large (``semiclassical'') values of AdS energy (equal to 4-d dimension…
A model for $n$ superparticles in $(d-n,n)$ dimensions is studied. The target space supersymmetry involves a product of $n$ momentum generators, and the action has $n(n+1)/2$ local bosonic symmetries and $n$ local fermionic symmetries. The…
We consider semiclassical computation of 3-point correlation functions of (BPS or non-BPS) string states represented by vertex operators carrying large charges in S5. We argue that the AdS5 part of the construction of relevant semiclassical…
We develop a simple, yet powerful, matrix-valued large-charge EFT that captures the thermodynamic behavior of rotating extremal large-charge AdS black holes. We introduce a minimal "matrix EFT" by promoting the complex scalar in large…
A systematic construction is presented of 1/4 BPS operators in N=4 superconformal Yang-Mills theory, using either analytic superspace methods or components. In the construction, the operators of the classical theory annihilated by 4 out of…
We study the possibility of having Black hole of spherical and ring horizon topology with five independent charges in the $U(1)^3$-model of 5D gauge supergravity. To study these possibilities we consider not only the known result obtained…
Recently, entropy of static supersymmetric black holes in $AdS_6$ was microscopically counted by the topologically twisted index of five-dimensional superconformal field theories. However, the AdS/CFT dictionary states that the partition…
