Abstract

We study the thermodynamics in the Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) limit of anti–de Sitter black holes realizing the topological twist. We use a limiting procedure that allows us to reach the extremal point along a trajectory in the space of supersymmetric Euclidean solutions. We show that on this space we can write a quantum statistical relation, which is well-defined in the BPS limit and relies on imposing a suitable constraint among the chemical potentials, due to supersymmetry and regularity. We stress the importance of this in relating the thermal partition function of the dual field theory to the topologically twisted index.

  27. There is yet another distinct way to obtain dyonic supersymmetric black holes, by considering C-metric solutions describing accelerating black holes with magnetic charge related to the acceleration parameter [28, 29, 30, 31, 32]. In the present paper we restrict our attention to dyonic twisted non-accelerating solutions.

  46. There also exists a family of static solutions with unconstrained charges [47], and rotating extensions thereof [47, 48]. Euclidean solutions generalizing (23) have been presented in [49]. However, for the purposes of this paper it is appropriate to work with this solution.

  52. Rewriting the action in terms of φa, Pa is ambiguous. We choose the formula to be consistent with the large-N limit of the partition function of mass-deformed ABJM [53].

  54. On the other hand, there also exist saddles of the path integral that are intrinsically Euclidean, such as the ones found in [49], that do not have a Lorentzian black hole counterpart and whose on-shell action can matched to a field theory computation.

  60. If Σg≅S2, there is an additional isometry, the states in HS2 are labelled by the angular momentum as well, and it is possible to further refine the index [33]. The bulk dual states would be dyonic rotating solutions with spherical horizons such as [55].
