    We quantize the D1-D5-P microstate geometries known as superstrata directly in supergravity. We use Rychkov's consistency condition [hep-th/0512053] which was derived for the D1-D5 system
    for superstrata, this condition turns out to be strong enough to fix the symplectic form uniquely. For the (1, 0, n) superstrata, we further confirm this quantization by a bona-fide explicit computation of the symplectic form using the semiclassical covariant quantization method in supergravity. We use the resulting quantizations to count the known supergravity superstrata states, finding agreement with previous countings that the number of these states grows parametrically smaller than those of the corresponding black hole.

  10. Random boundary geometry and gravity dual of TT¯ deformation Reviewed International coauthorship International journal Open Access

    We study the random geometry approach to the TT¯ deformation of 2d conformal field theory developed by Cardy and discuss its realization in a gravity dual. In this representation, the gravity dual of the TT¯ deformation becomes a straightforward translation of the field theory language. Namely, the dual geometry is an ensemble of AdS3 spaces or BTZ black holes, without a finite cutoff, but instead with randomly fluctuating boundary diffeomorphisms. This reflects an increase in degrees of freedom in the renormalization group flow to the UV by the irrelevant TT¯ operator. We streamline the method of computation and calculate the energy spectrum and the thermal free energy in a manner that can be directly translated into the gravity dual language. We further generalize this approach to correlation functions and reproduce the all-order result with universal logarithmic corrections computed by Cardy in a different method. In contrast to earlier proposals, this version of the gravity dual of the TT¯ deformation works not only for the energy spectrum and the thermal free energy but also for correlation functions.

    We give a survey of the present status of the microstate geometries called
    superstrata. Superstrata are smooth, horizonless solutions of six-dimensional
    supergravity that represent some of the microstates of the D1-D5-P black hole
    in string theory. They are the most general microstate geometries of that sort
    whose CFT dual states are identified. After reviewing relevant features of the
    dual CFT, we discuss the construction of superstratum solutions in
    supergravity, based on the linear structure of the BPS equations. We also
    review some of recent work on generalizations of superstrata and physical
    properties of superstrata. Although the number of superstrata constructed so
    far is not enough to account for the black-hole entropy, they give us valuable
    insights into the microscopic physics of black holes.

  12. Counting Superstrata Reviewed International journal Open Access

    Language:English   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)  

    We count the number of regular supersymmetric solutions in supergravity,
    called superstrata, that represent non-linear completion of linear fluctuations
    around empty AdS_3 x S^3. These solutions carry the same charges as the D1-D5-P
    black hole and represent its microstates. We estimate the entropy using
    thermodynamic approximation and find that it is parametrically smaller than the
    area-entropy of the D1-D5-P black hole. Therefore, these superstrata based on
    AdS_3 x S^3 are not typical microstates of the black hole. What are missing in
    the superstrata based on AdS_3 x S^3 are higher and fractional modes in the
    dual CFT language. We speculate on what kind of other configurations to look at
    as possible realization of those modes in gravity picture, such as superstrata
    based on other geometries, as well as other brane configurations.

    We construct a new class of smooth horizonless microstate geometries of the
    supersymmetric D1-D5-P black hole in type IIB supergravity. We first work in
    the AdS$_3 \times S^3$ decoupling limit and use the fermionic symmetries of the
    theory to generate new momentum carrying perturbations in the bulk that have an
    explicit CFT dual description. We then use the supergravity equations to
    calculate the backreaction of these perturbations and find the full non-linear
    solutions both in the asymptotically AdS and asymptotically flat case. These
    new geometries have a simpler structure than the previously known superstrata
    solutions.

    We construct an infinite family of smooth asymptotically-flat supergravity
    solutions that have the same charges and angular momenta as general
    supersymmetric D1-D5-P black holes, but have no horizon. These solutions
    resemble the corresponding black hole to arbitrary accuracy outside of the
    horizon: they have asymptotically flat regions, AdS_3 x S^3 throats and
    very-near-horizon AdS_2 throats, which however end in a smooth cap rather than
    an event horizon. The angular momenta of the solutions are general, and in
    particular can take arbitrarily small values. Upon taking the AdS_3 x S^3
    decoupling limit, we identify the holographically-dual CFT states.

    A supertube is a supersymmetric configuration in string theory which occurs
    when a pair of branes spontaneously polarizes and generates a new dipole charge
    extended along a closed curve. The dipole charge of a codimension-2 supertube
    is characterized by the U-duality monodromy as one goes around the supertube.
    For multiple codimension-2 supertubes, their monodromies do not commute in
    general. In this paper, we construct a supersymmetric solution of
    five-dimensional supergravity that describes two supertubes with such
    non-Abelian monodromies, in a certain perturbative expansion. In supergravity,
    the monodromies are realized as the multi-valuedness of the scalar fields,
    while in higher dimensions they correspond to non-geometric duality twists of
    the internal space. The supertubes in our solution carry NS5 and 5$_2^2$ dipole
    charges and exhibit the same monodromy structure as the SU(2) Seiberg-Witten
    geometry. The perturbative solution has $\mathrm{AdS}_2\times S^2$ asymptotics
    and vanishing four-dimensional angular momentum. We argue that this solution
    represents a microstate of four-dimensional black holes with a finite horizon
    and that it provides a clue for the gravity realization of a pure-Higgs branch
    state in the dual quiver quantum mechanics.

    ブラックホールの微視的物理の理解は量子重力・弦理論における重要な課題である。なかでも基本的な未解明問題に、ブラックホールの微視的状態が重力理論においてどのように記述されるのかが分かっていないという「微視的状態の問題」がある。一部の微視的状態は「幾何状態」と呼ばれる古典的時空によって表されるが、それは典型的な状態ではない。本研究は、弦理論的な物理を重力理論・場の理論などの手法を用いて多角的に解析することにより、幾何状態を超えた典型的な微視的状態を具体的に構成し、微視的状態の問題を解明することを目指す。さらに、構成された微視的状態を応用し、ブラックホールに関する未解明問題の解決に挑戦する。
    本研究は、ブラックホールの典型的な微視的状態はどんなものなのであろうか、ということを追求する研究である。具体的には、これまでに知られている具体的な微視的状態に基づき、それに弦理論的物理を加えることにより一般的な微視的状態の本質に迫ることを目的とする。
    第一歩として、R6年度においては、他中心解と呼ばれる重力解を構成する枠組みにおいて、初めて3個の中心を持ちその起源を微視的に理解できる解を構成した。ここで微視的理解というのは、世界面CFTを用いて記述可能ということである。具体的には、これまでに知られている2中心解の上にプローブとしてD1-PないしF1-Pの電荷を持った第3の中心を置き、その位置が世界面CFTの予言する位置と一致することを示した。これまでに微視的理解が出来ていた多中心解は2個の中心しか持っていなかったので、これは、一般の他中心解の微視的理解への第一歩である。また、超層解のような複雑な幾何状態を具体的に構成せずともその物理的性質を調べることのできる粗視化の方法も提案した。
    ブラックホールの微視的状態をホログラフィックCFTから理解する研究に関し分野で近年「fortuity」という概念が提唱され注目を集めている。これは、ブラックホール状態とそうでない状態を区別する規則を与える。私は、本研究費で雇用されたポスドクと共に、D1-D5 CFTというホログラフィックCFTの状態を、今回我々が構成した新しい楕円種数楕円種数を用いて詳細に解析し、fortuitous状態と呼ばれるべき状態の中にブラックホールではない状態があることを明らかにした。これは、ブラックホール状態とは何かということをCFTから定義するためにはfortuityが十分でないことを示し、微視的状態をさらに深く理解するために重要な進展である。
    これらの結果は近日中に出版される予定である。
    R6年度においては、他中心解と呼ばれる重力解を構成する枠組みにおいて、初めて3個の中心を持ちその起源を微視的に理解できる解を構成した。この解の持つ性質は世界面CFTを用いて導かれるものと一致する。この解を梃子にして、ホログラフィックなCFTにおける多中心解の記述を理解し、特に、分数モードへの理解を深めるのが以前からの計画である。
    また一方で、ブラックホールの微視的状態をホログラフィックCFTから理解する研究に関し分野で近年「fortuity」呼ばれる概念が提唱された。特に、本提案研究でのメインの研究対象であるD1-D5系におけるその適用法がR7年1月に具体的に提唱され、大きな注目を集めている。私はこれは本研究に大いに関係ある非常に重要な方向性であると考え、当初の研究計画には無かったが、それをCFTにおける楕円種数と呼ばれる量を用いて解析し、提案されたfortuityの概念はブラックホール状態とそうでない状態を区別するのには不十分であることを示した。今後はこの結果に基づき楕円種数を用いたfortuity及びブラックホールの微視的状態の解析を進める予定である。
    上記の理由により、本研究は概ね順調に進展していると判断する。
    R6年度においては、他中心解と呼ばれる重力解を構成する枠組みにおいて、初めて3個の中心を持ちその起源を微視的に理解できる解を構成した。今後、この構成を梃子にして、ホログラフィックなCFTにおける多中心解の記述を理解し、特に、分数モードへの理解を深める計画である。また、この研究の副産物として、超層解のような複雑な解を顕に構成せずとも解析できる粗視化の方法を発展させたため、それを用いた新たな解の構成や微視的物理の解析も行う予定である。
    また「fortuity」に関しては、今回我々はtarget spaceがT4のsymmetric orbifoldであるD1-D5系に対してN=2の場合に新しい楕円種数を計算することが出来た。CFTを用いてブラックホール状態とは何か、ということをもっと高い解像度をもって調べるため今後はN≧3の場合に、T4だけではなくK3の場合も含めて解析を続ける計画である。

    Conformal field theory (CFT) is a field theory that is invariant under local scale transformations and appears in various physical systems. Recently, it was found that various good properties of CFTs are preserved when a deformation called TTbar deformation is applied to CFTs, and it is important to understand the mechanism and properties of such deformations. We investigate the physics of TTbar deformations in the framework of the AdS/CFT correspondence using a method called random geometry and, in particular, we explore various aspects of non-unitarity exhibited by the correlation functions. On the CFT side, when an operator is inserted, the physical quantity exhibits pathological behaviors around the insertion point and, on the AdS side, the space-time appears to be excised in a conical region with the insertion point of the operator as the vertex. This result must be useful for going beyond the framework of the usual AdS/CFT correspondence.

    Black holes are almost featureless macroscopically but, microscopically, they must be made of microstates with non-trivial structure. Some of such black-hole microstates are known to be described by “microstate geometries” -- smooth and horizonless solutions of classical gravity theory. In this research, we constructed various microstate geometries that describe microstates of black holes that appear in string theory. These microstate geometries are called “superstrata” and represent the most general class of microstate geometries ever constructed. The microstate geometries constructed in the current project provide indispensable tools that can be used to explore microscopic physics of black holes in a very concrete manner.
