Elliptic Genera of Symmetric Products and Second Quantized Strings
read the original abstract
In this note we prove an identity that equates the elliptic genus partition function of a supersymmetric sigma model on the N-fold symmetric product $M^N/S_N$ of a manifold M to the partition function of a second quantized string theory on the space $M \times S^1$. The generating function of these elliptic genera is shown to be (almost) an automorphic form for O(3,2,Z). In the context of D-brane dynamics, this result gives a precise computation of the free energy of a gas of D-strings inside a higher-dimensional brane.

The Resolved Elliptic Genus and the D1-D5 CFT
The resolved elliptic genus refines the supersymmetry index for the D1-D5 CFT by summing only over symmetry sectors that mix under a deformed supercharge, yielding agreement with supergravity below the black-hole thre...

Chaos of Berry curvature for BPS microstates
Berry curvature of BPS states is random-matrix-like for supersymmetric black hole microstates but non-random and often zero for horizonless geometries, offering a chaos diagnostic in degenerate sectors.

Towering Gravitons in AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$
A procedure dresses supergravitons with singletons to extend the BPS gravity-sector spectrum in AdS3/CFT2, yielding affine multiplets that match the D1-D5 CFT better after deformation up to higher levels.
