We present a general analysis of the thermodynamics of spinning black p-branes of string and M-theory. This is carried out both for the asymptotically-flat and near-horizon case, with emphasis on the latter. In particular, we use the conjectured correspondence between the near-horizon brane solutions and field theories with 16 supercharges in various dimensions to describe the thermodynamic behavior of these field theories in the presence of voltages under the R-symmetry. Boundaries of stability are computed for all spinning branes both in the grand canonical and canonical ensemble, and the effect of multiple angular momenta is considered. A recently proposed regularization of the field theory is used to compute the corresponding boundaries of stability at weak coupling. For the D2, D3, D4, M2 and M5-branes the critical values of Omega/T in the weak and strong coupling limit are remarkably close. Finally, we also show that for the spinning D3-brane the tree level R^4 correction supports the conjecture of a smooth interpolating function between the free energy at weak and strong coupling.

  1. Holography with Null Boundaries

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    D1-D5-F1 string theory in a non-commutative decoupling limit yields a holographic correspondence for spacetimes with a null boundary, interpolating between AdS3 and a six-dimensional asymptotic metric.

  2. Explorations of Universality in the Entropy and Hawking Radiation of Non-Extremal Kerr AdS$_4$ Black Holes

    hep-th 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Multiple microscopic methods confirm universality of AdS4 black hole entropy for non-extremal cases at high temperatures and show Hawking radiation rate proportional to horizon area.

  3. Instability in ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on $S^3$ at finite density

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    On S^3, curvature can stabilize R-symmetry charge transport of charged N=4 SYM plasma while thermodynamic instability persists, and volume fluctuations never restore thermodynamic stability.
