Large $N$ Superconformal Indices for 3d Holographic SCFTs (2210.15326v4)
Abstract: We study a limit of the superconformal index of the ABJM theory on $S1\times S2$ in which the size of the circle is much smaller than the radius of the two-sphere. We derive closed form expressions for the two leading terms in this Cardy-like limit which are valid to all orders in the $1/N$ expansion. These results are facilitated by a judicious rewriting of the superconformal index which establishes a connection with the Bethe Ansatz Equations that control the topologically twisted index. Using the same technique we extend these results to the superconformal index of another holographic theory: 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM coupled to one adjoint and $N_f$ fundamental hypermultiplets. We discuss the implications of our results for holography and the physics of charged rotating black holes in AdS$_4$.
