Song of the Week: J S Bach - Goldberg Variations (# 5), played by Glenn Gould

As you will have read above (we hope), James Sparks will be talking about Bach's Goldberg Variations at the Spitalfields Music Festival. James says of Glenn Gould's interpretation. 

"Variations 3n+2 are all of this type (n=1,2,..,9) - two melodies, fast, one in each hand, with crossing of melodies/hands in every conceivable way you can imagine!"

Large N Partition Functions, Holography, and Black Holes

Nikolay Bobev
Abstract

I will discuss the large N behavior of partition functions of the ABJM theory on compact Euclidean manifolds. I will pay particular attention to the S^3 free energy and the topologically twisted index for which I will present closed form expressions valid to all order in the large N expansion. These results have important implications for holography and the microscopic entropy counting of AdS_4 black holes which I will discuss. I will also briefly discuss generalizations to other SCFTs arising from M2-branes.
