We review black-hole solutions of higher-dimensional vacuum gravity and higher-
dimensional supergravity theories. The discussion of vacuum gravity is pedagogical, with …

I review some recent progresses in counting the number of microstates of AdS
supersymmetric black holes in dimension equal or greater than four using holography. The …

Black-hole solutions to general relativity carry a thermodynamic entropy, discovered by
Bekenstein and Hawking to be proportional to the area of the event horizon, at leading order …

We present a holographic derivation of the entropy of supersymmetric asymptotically AdS 5
black holes. We define a BPS limit of black hole thermodynamics by first focussing on a …

We discuss a supersymmetric generalization of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. These
are quantum mechanical models involving N Majorana fermions. The supercharge is given …

A bstract We systematically analyze the operator content of unitary superconformal
multiplets in d≥ 3 spacetime dimensions. We present a simple, general, and efficient …

We describe a new correspondence between four-dimensional conformal field theories with
extended supersymmetry and two-dimensional chiral algebras. The meromorphic …

A bstract 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 …

We construct three dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theories with gauge groups U (N)× U
(N) and SU (N)× SU (N) which have explicit Script N= 6 superconformal symmetry. Using …

We study the index of $\mathcal {N}= 4$ Yang-Mills theory on $ S^ 3\times\mathbb {R} $ at
large angular momenta. A generalized Cardy limit exhibits macroscopic entropy at large $ N …
