abstract

We analyze the low temperature structure of a supersymmetric quiver quantum mechanics with randomized superpotential coefficients, treating them as quenched disorder. These theories describe features of the low energy dynamics of wrapped branes, which in large number backreact into extremal black holes. We show that the low temperature theory, in the limit of a large number of bifundamentals, exhibits a time reparametrization symmetry as well as a specific heat linear in the temperature. Both these features resemble the behavior of black hole horizons in the zero temperature limit. We demonstrate similarities between the low temperature physics of the random quiver model and a theory of large $N$ free fermions with random masses.

  1. Fortuity and fragility in supersymmetric SYK

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    BPS classes in N=2 supersymmetric SYK are always continuable across system sizes along walks, but harmonic representatives generically fail to uplift exactly, and the paper's decoder quantifies this failure.

  2. On conformal symmetry in large-$N$ quiver mechanics

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    At large rank N, the fixed-point formula for the quiver superconformal index equals the Ω_uneq contribution to the microscopic scaling BPS index of Beaujard–Mondal–Pioline, a piece previously invisible on the Coulomb branch.

  3. The two-dimensional disordered $O(N)$ sigma model

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    A 2D disordered O(N) sigma model at large N exhibits a low-temperature spin glass phase with finite Edwards-Anderson parameter and approximate scaling in the dynamical two-point function.
