What is a good microscopic theory of quantum gravity?
Perturbatively UV finite in flat space Weak-strong dualities AdS/CFT holography
Focus on universal requirements which should hold in all phases of the theory.
Interpret a BH as a statistical ensemble of states.
String theory?
However, we do not know what phase (vacuum/compactification) corresponds to the real world!
(c.f. talk of Ambjorn)

1. What is the physics of these corrections?
2. How to compute them in a concrete model?
3. Can we compare them to a similar expansion in the microscopic theory?

Mock modular forms provide the answer(A.Dabholkar, S.M., D.Zagier ’12)
These functions were described by Ramanujan, who gave a list of examples, but did not give a definition!
Their definition and structural properties were finally understood by S. Zwegers in 2000.
Surprisingly, this is exactly what we need to solve the BH wall-crossing problem.
For the N=4 theory, we could solve it fully (based on formula due to
Dijkgraaf, Verlinde, Verlinde ’96), and explicitly compute the partition function of a single BH as a function of its charges.
![Page 24: Exact Quantum Black hole entropy...Wald Entropy formalism •Applicable to any local effective action of gravity (Cardoso, de Wit, Mohaupt ’99) •Successfully applied to BH models](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060817/609630ecaf745250e172ee5b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
We have a canonical decomposition of the partition function:
• contains all the wall-crossing information.
• is the partition function of the single centered BH. It is a mock modular form.
Zmulti(�)
ZBH(�)
Zmicro(�) = ZBH(�) + Zmulti(�)
What is the partition function of a single-centered black hole?
One can now use modular symmetry to make Rademacher expansions as before.
Many new explorations have opened up as a result. e.g. Large discrete symmetry groups (moonshine) of BHs in string theory (J. Harvey, S.M. ’13)
(e.g. Manschot, Bringmann ’13).
![Page 25: Exact Quantum Black hole entropy...Wald Entropy formalism •Applicable to any local effective action of gravity (Cardoso, de Wit, Mohaupt ’99) •Successfully applied to BH models](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060817/609630ecaf745250e172ee5b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Conclusions and outlook•Finite size effects in BH thermodynamics can be computed.
•Localization methods give us convergent perturbation expansions for the quantum gravity partition function.
•Emergence of quantum structure from continuum gravity, inclusion of sub-leading saddle points are important.
•Mathematical structures: New mock modular symmetries seem to play a key role in the BH wall-crossing problem.
Lunch time!
•Effective low-energy theory provides strong constraints on quantum theory of gravity.
