Description

The large N limit of the four-dimensional superconformal index has been computed and successfully compared to the entropy of a class of AdS$_5$ black holes only in the particular case of equal angular momenta. Using the Bethe ansatz formulation of the index, we found a particular universal contribution to the sum over Bethe vacua that correctly leads to the entropy of BPS Kerr–Newman black holes in AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ for arbitrary values of the conserved charges, thus completing the microscopic derivation of their microstates. We also consider theories dual to AdS$_5\times$SE$_5$, where SE$_5$ is a Sasaki–Einstein manifold. In particular, we explicitly constructed the near-horizon geometry of as yet unkown BPS Kerr–Newman black holes in AdS$_5\times$T$^{1,1}$. The entropies of these black holes were computed using the attractor mechanism and we found complete agreement with predictions from the index.
