abstract
We discuss the degeneracies of 4D and 5D BPS black holes in toroidal compactifications of M-theory or type II string theory, using U-duality as a tool. We generalize the 4D/5D lift to include all charges in N=8 supergravity, and compute the exact indexed degeneracies of certain 4D 1/8-BPS black holes. Using the attractor formalism, we obtain the leading micro-canonical entropy for arbitrary Legendre invariant prepotentials and non-vanishing D6-brane charge. In particular, we find that the N=8 prepotential is given to leading order by the cubic invariant of $E_6$. This suggests that the minimal unitary representation of $E_8$, based on the same cubic prepotential, underlies the microscopic degeneracies of N=8 black holes. We propose that the exact degeneracies are given by the Wigner function of the $E_8(Z)$ invariant vector in this automorphic representation. A similar conjecture relates the degeneracies of N=4 black holes to the minimal unipotent representation of $SO(8,24,Z)$.

Multicentered black hole saddles for supersymmetric indices
Multi-center black hole saddles for the supersymmetric index exist at finite temperature, their on-shell action is the sum of extremal entropies, and the entire moduli space of saddles vanishes at walls of marginal stability.

Pure D-brane Black Holes: BPS Counting and non-BPS Vacua
The (1,1,1,5) and (1,1,1,6) D2-D2-D2-D6 BPS systems yield 2032 and 5616 vacua, matching U-duality, while the analogous non-BPS system has no zero-energy vacua and six doubly-degenerate low-energy minima.
