The degeneracies of 1/4 BPS states with unit torsion in heterotic string theory compactified on a six torus are given in terms of the Fourier coefficients of the reciprocal of the Igusa cusp Siegel modular form Φ 10 of weight 10. We use the symplectic symmetries of the latter to construct a fine-grained Rademacher-type expansion which expresses these BPS degeneracies as a regularized sum over residues of the poles of 1 / Φ 10 . The construction uses two distinct SL (2 , Z) subgroups of Sp (2 , Z) which encode multiplier systems, Kloosterman sums and Eichler integrals appearing therein. Additionally, it shows how the polar data are explicitly built from the Fourier coefficients of 1 / η 24 by means of a continued fraction structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We use the exact degeneracy formula of single-centred 1 4 BPS dyonic black holes with unit torsion in 4D N = 4 toroidally compactified heterotic string theory to improve on the existing formulation of the corresponding quantum entropy function obtained using supersymmetric localization. The result takes the form of a sum over Euclidean backgrounds including orbifolds of the Euclidean AdS 2 × S 2 attractor geometry. Using an N = 2 formalism, we determine the explicit form of the Abelian gauge potentials supporting these backgrounds. We further show how a rewriting of the degeneracy formula is amenable, at a semi-classical level, to a gravitational interpretation involving 2D Euclidean wormholes. This alternative picture is useful to elucidate different aspects of the gravitational path integral capturing the microstate degeneracies. We also comment on the relation between the associated 1D holographic models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We use continued fractions to perform a systematic and explicit characterization of the decays of two-centred dyonic black holes in 4D N = 4 heterotic ℤN CHL models. Thereby we give a new exact solution for the problem of counting decadent dyons in these models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
