Description
Gauge/gravity duality is the conjecture that string theories have dual descriptions as gauge theories.
Weakly-coupled gravity is dual to strongly-coupled gauge theories, ideal for lattice calculations.
I will show precision lattice calculations that confirm large-N continuum D0-brane quantum mechanics correctly reproduces the leading-order supergravity prediction for a black hole's internal energy---the first leading-order test of the duality---and constrains stringy and quantum corrections.
