SUMMARY:AdS4 black holes and 3d gauge theories - Alberto Zaffaroni

DESCRIPTION:One of the great success of string theory is the microscopical
  explanation of the entropy of a class of asymptotically flat black holes.
 \nMuch less is known about asymptotically AdS  black holes. In this talk I
  explain how to derive the entropy of a class of asymptotically AdS supers
 ymmetric black holes in four dimensions using holography. The counting of 
 black hole micro-states is related to a counting of states in the dual 3d 
 gauge theory which can be explicitly performed using localization.
