Microscopic derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for non-extremal black holes
read the original abstract
We derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for four and five dimensional non-supersymmetric black holes (which include the Schwarzchild ones) by counting microscopic states. This is achieved by first showing that these black holes are U-dual to the three-dimensional black hole of Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli and then counting microscopic states of the latter following Carlip's approach. Higher than five dimensional black holes are also considered. We discuss the connection of our approach to the D-brane picture.

Gauge Theory Correlators from Non-Critical String Theory
Gauge theory correlators in 3+1D N=4 SYM with large N are obtained from the supergravity action on the AdS boundary, with anomalous dimensions for massive string modes growing as 2(n g_YM sqrt(2N))^{1/2} at strong 't ...
