abstract
It has recently been conjectured \cite{Kim:2023sig} that the end point of the rotational superradiant instability of black holes in $AdS_4$ is a Grey Galaxy: an $\omega=1$ black hole sitting at the centre of $AdS_4$, surrounded by a large disk of rapidly rotating gravitons and other bulk fields. In this paper we study Grey Galaxies in $AdS_5$. In this case, the rotational group is of rank 2, and so has two distinct angular velocities $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$. We demonstrate that $AdS_5$ hosts two qualitatively distinct Grey Galaxy phases: the first with either $\omega_1\approx 1$ or $\omega_2\approx 1$, and the second with both angular velocities $\approx 1$. We use these results to present a conjecture for a part of the phase diagram of ${\cal N}=4$ Yang-Mills (as a function of energy and the two angular momenta) that displays several phase transitions between regular black holes and various Grey Galaxy phases. We present an explicit gravitational construction of the phases in which $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are both parametrically close to unity, and demonstrate that the corresponding boundary stress tensor is the sum of two pieces. The first is the stress tensor of the central black hole. The second - the contribution of the bulk gas - takes the form of the stress tensor of an equilibrated boundary conformal fluid, rotating at the given angular speeds $\omega_i$. We also briefly comment on the structure of Grey Galaxies in $AdS_D$ for $D > 5$.

Probing Non-Graviton Spectra in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM via BMN truncation and S-Duality
The BMN index of N=4 SYM contains universal non-graviton bosonic towers, and the S-duality mismatch between SO(7) and Sp(3) pinpoints a non-graviton cohomology.

Instability of Black Holes in AdS$_3 \times S^3$
Near-extremal AdS3 x S3 black holes are thermodynamically and dynamically unstable, decaying to a central black hole plus chiral primaries or new macroscopic giant strings.

Extremal AdS Black Holes as Fluids: A Matrix Large-Charge EFT Approach
Promoting the large-charge scalar to an N by N adjoint matrix gives a mean-field fluid whose stress tensor matches extremal AdS5 black holes, while its mode-counted entropy remains parametrically below the black hole entropy.
