Luca Iliesiu (Stanford & UC Berkeley) “Counting all BPS black hole microstates from the gravitational path integral”
–
Abstract: Understanding how to prepare and count black hole micro-states by using the gravitational path integral is one of the most important problems in quantum gravity. Nevertheless, a state-by-state count of black hole microstates is difficult because the apparent number of degrees of freedom available in the gravitational effective theory can vastly exceed the entropy of the black hole, even in … Read More
