Branes and Fundamental Groups
read the original abstract
We consider bound states of D-branes wrapped around cycles with non-trivial fundamental groups of finite order. We find a new mechanism for binding D-branes by turning on flat discrete abelian and non-abelian gauge fields on their worldvolume. As a concrete application we study type IIB in the background where an S^3/G shrinks, where G is a discrete subgroup of SU(2) acting freely on S^3.

Large Order Enumerative Geometry, Black Holes and Black Rings
Numerical study of high-genus GV invariants reveals 5D indices matching BMPV black-hole entropy below a critical angular momentum and black-ring dominance above, with additional phase transitions and growth laws in PT...

Numerical analysis of 5D indices shows a transition from BMPV black hole entropy to black ring entropy at critical angular momentum m, while PT invariants exhibit two further transitions at positive m and DT invariant...
