Motivation

Certain charged extremal black holes in string theory SBH=0 using
lowest order lagrangian while Sstat 0. These are called small black
holes.

Ignored higher derivative terms. Area/4 law is modified and is now
given by Wald’s formula.

Example: A single long Heterotic string wrapping S1 momentum n
winding w, only left moving excitations to make a BPS state.

The number of such states for large n and w is » exp (4 p(nw)).
The statistical entropy of this system is
Sstat=4 p(nw)


Using Wald’s formula we can associate an entropy SBH to this. Is
Sstat=SBH?[Dabhokar]
What happens when n or w is zero? Can we associate non-zero
entropy with single-charge black holes?

Entropy function—Sen’s derivation

Following Sen, definition of extremal black holes in higher derivative theory:
Black hole with near horizon geometry AdS2 £ SD.

Start with general gauge and coordinate invariant theory with metric g,
Abelian gauge fields Ai and neutral scalar fields s.

Assume background fields to respect the SO(2,1)£ SO(D+1) symmetry of
.
AdS2 £ SD

An example: Heterotic F-string with winding and
momentum

Setting n or w to zero makes the string coupling blow up.



Note that till now we have not used any specific form for the higher derivative
correction and this derivation is general. It is also applicable to the type II Fstring wrapping a circle and having momentum.
For the heterotic string the leading ’ correction begins with the well known
Gauss-Bonnet type S R2 interaction while for type II it begins with S R4.

Sen found that just using the S R2 term and nothing else, the entire result could
be exactly reproduced in 4 and 5 dimensions.

Setting either n or w to zero seems to make the entropy result vanish. However
this conclusion is too naïve as in this case string coupling is large and string
loop corrections will play a crucial role.
QUESTION: What happens when you set n or w to zero?
Hard question to tackle in type II theories in general as higher derivative terms
involving fluxes are not known except where topological string arguments can
be used.
Study a related question in M-theory. Consider a large number of D0-particles and
ask what happens to the entropy of a black-hole formed from such a collection.

Single charge small black holes

Large number q of D0-particles in type IIA. KK modes of the 11-d
graviton. Lowest order solution, dilaton blows up, null singularity—
zero horizon area.
Use strong coupling limit, lift to M theory.

Assume near horizon geometry to be AdS2 x S8 and see if solution
exists using the entropy function formalism.

Now incorporate higher derivative corrections to EH terms

Steps in the calculation
12

So have seen possibility of getting partitioning of integer as the
macroscopic entropy. What gives rise to this degeneracy?

We can form multigraviton states with fixed total KK momentum.
Their degeneracy is given by partitioning of q, given by the HardyRamanujan formula in the large charge limit,

Thus expect resulting black hole to have entropy given by

Have to demonstrate that leading order result (using R4) is nonvanishing.

The M-theory

R
term
In order to proceed we need to know more details about the M-theory R4
term. This is inherited from the well known 1-loop type IIA R4 term.
Field redefinition allows us to write this as[Tsyetlin]

Features of solution and discussion

Satisfies v1=y2. Sets two of the three equations to be equal to one
another and hence we need to solve only two equations for two
unknowns. Presumably can be done algebraically.

v1=y2 implies probe D0-brane experiences vanishing force and
DM RABCD=0 (note that this is not required in the 11-d lift and is only
required in 10-d geometry).

The leading entropy is still proportional to area.

Our n.h. geometry AdS2 £ S8 is a new solution not seen in SUGRA.

The 11-d lift is locally AdS3 £ S8 with a 1-d null boundary.

Ratio EH/R4=-1/3. Ratio in 2 charge case for Sen EH/R2=-1. Is this
rationality a coincidence?
16

Is the solution supersymmetric?

We are counting all multiparticle states in order to get the entropy.

For the two charge system, suppose n=1 and w is large. Then

A more precise calculation yields leading term to be

To see this need to consider perturbative string loop corrections as well as
non-perturbative effects in the macroscopic calculation.

We find that for the single charge case, it is the multiparticle configuration
that dominates the counting.
17

Recently Kallosh and Linde have provided a quantum information
way of looking at our result. They propose that our result is
connected to the quantum stretching/non-normalizability of a qubit
wave-function.
