abstract

We study the large $ N$ sign oscillation of the twisted indices for 3D theories of class $\mathcal{R}$ obtained from M5-branes wrapped on a hyperbolic 3-manifold. Holographically, the oscillatory behavior can be understood from the imaginary part of on-shell actions for the two Euclidean supergravity solutions, Bolt$_{\pm}$ with $p=0$, which are Wick rotation of magnetically charged AdS$_4$ black holes. The two solutions have the same imaginary part with opposite sign. The imaginary part comes from the $F\wedge F$-term in the supergravity and the coefficient is proportional to the Chern-Simons invariant of 3-manifold. Combining the holographic computation with 3D-3D relation for twisted indices, we propose a non-trivial mathematical conjecture regarding the phase factor of a twisted Reidemeister-Ray-Singer torsion on hyperbolic 3-manifold.

    Near-BPS dyonic AdS4 black holes with a theta angle show a Witten-effect charge shift that reduces the mass gap and the index, and at the special angle both the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and the supersymmetric index ...
