In NS sector, identify with chiral primary—read off map from F1-P picture: i k m k e in k v ↔ [ α i 1 � − n 1 ] m 1 . . . [ α i k n 1 ] m 1 . . . [ σ ±± F i ( v ) = δ i − n k ] m k | 0 � ↔ [ σ ±± n k ] m k | 0 � NS k σ ±± are twist ops: join n i components to form a single long string. n i Allowing also oscillations in T 4 , build up general chiral primary. Orbifolds If � ae ikv , profile again S 1 , but traversed k times: F ( v ) = � SUSY (AdS 3 × S 3 ) / Z k orbifold geometry. Corresponding state has n 1 n 5 / k component strings of length k .

(see hep-th/0502050) CFT microstates ↔ smooth geometries “Horizon” arises by coarse graining Microstates desc directly in geometric terms Evidence: probe scattering, counting states in supertube picture. No real black hole - no information loss problem I don’t advocate this proposal Problems: Finding enough solitons Curvatures large for typical states Perturbations mix states (geometries?). Dynamical formation in grav collapse difficult: topology, horizon teleological. Simon F. Ross Smooth geometries & CFT

Outline Review D1-D5 Solitons LLM Discussion 2-charge solitons 3-charge solitons Non-SUSY CFT Three-charge solutions Giusto, Saxena & Mathur; Berglund, Gimon & Levi; Bena & Warner For three-charge solutions, R 4 replaced by Gibbons-Hawking space: ahler space, S 1 fibred over R 3 . hyper-K¨ GH = V ( d ψ + α ) + 1 V ( dx 2 + dy 2 + dz 2 ) . ds 2 Preserve U (1) symmetry associated with S 1 fibre. Preserve half SUSY of two-charge cases. No supertube picture: geometry specified by sources in R 3 . KK reduction gives smooth 5d geometry. Can pass to different duality frames: M2 ⊥ M2 ⊥ M2 desc. CFT interpretation Not yet understood in general. Two-centre case preserves U (1) × U (1). Near-core limit again global AdS 3 × S 3 . Interp as more general spectral flow of NS vacuum. Simon F.

Outline Review D1-D5 Solitons LLM Discussion 2-charge solitons 3-charge solitons Non-SUSY CFT Non-supersymmetric solitons Jejjala, Madden, Ross & Titchener Look for soliton solutions in general “black string” metric. As in SUSY two-charge case, S 1 → 0 smoothly. Metric involves two harmonic functions H 1 , 5 , 2 ) − Mr 2 = ( r 2 − r 2 + )( r 2 − r 2 g ( r ) = ( r 2 + a 2 1 )( r 2 + a 2 − ). Coordinate singularities at H 1 , 5 = 0, r 2 = r 2 ± . If r 2 + > 0, horizon; if r 2 + < 0, conical singularity. Require H 1 , 5 ( r + ) > 0. Make r 2 = r 2 + smooth origin: Need || ξ || 2 = 0 at r 2 = r 2 + for some ξ = R ∂ y + n ∂ ψ − m ∂ φ . ξ fixes ˜ φ = φ + my , ˜ ψ = ψ − ny . Need m , n ∈ Z , so ξ has closed orbits Need an appropriate period to get smooth solution Simon F. Ross Smooth geometries & CFT

Can also consider Z k orbifolds, rather than just smooth solutions: Take y ∼ y + 2 π Rk at fixed ˜ φ, ˜ ψ closed cycle. m + n odd to have periodic fermions on asymptotic S 1 y . Simon F.
