abstract

In this Report we review the microscopic formulation of the five dimensional black hole of type IIB string theory in terms of the D1-D5 brane system. The emphasis here is more on the brane dynamics than on supergravity solutions. We show how the low energy brane dynamics, combined with crucial inputs from AdS/CFT correspondence, leads to a derivation of black hole thermodynamics and the rate of Hawking radiation. Our approach requires a detailed exposition of the gauge theory and conformal field theory of the D1-D5 system. We also discuss some applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence in the context of black hole formation in three dimensions by thermal transition and by collision of point particles.

The Resolved Elliptic Genus and the D1-D5 CFT

hep-th · 2026-03-18 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

The resolved elliptic genus refines the supersymmetry index for the D1-D5 CFT by summing only over symmetry sectors that mix under a deformed supercharge, yielding agreement with supergravity below the black-hole threshold where the modified elliptic genus is trivial.

Chaos of Berry curvature for BPS microstates

hep-th · 2026-04-25 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Berry curvature of BPS states is random-matrix-like for supersymmetric black hole microstates but non-random and often zero for horizonless geometries, offering a chaos diagnostic in degenerate sectors.

Signatures of Quantum Chaos in the D1D5 System

hep-th · 2026-05-18 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Finite-N non-planar mixing in the D1D5 CFT produces level repulsion and random-matrix statistics in symmetry-resolved sectors, while the planar large-N limit yields Poisson statistics.

Towering Gravitons in AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$

hep-th · 2026-04-22 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A procedure dresses supergravitons with singletons to extend the BPS gravity-sector spectrum in AdS3/CFT2, yielding affine multiplets that match the D1-D5 CFT better after deformation up to higher levels.
