abstract

The modified elliptic genus for an M5-brane wrapped on a four-cycle of a Calabi-Yau threefold encodes the degeneracies of an infinite set of BPS states in four dimensions. By holomorphy and modular invariance, it can be determined completely from the knowledge of a finite set of such BPS states. We show the feasibility of such a computation and determine the exact modified elliptic genus for an M5-brane wrapping a hyperplane section of the quintic threefold.

Numerical analysis of 5D indices shows a transition from BMPV black hole entropy to black ring entropy at critical angular momentum m, while PT invariants exhibit two further transitions at positive m and DT invariants transition to D0-brane dominance.
