Description
I will review the holographic duality enjoyed by the strongly-coupled limit of U(K) BFSS with N fundamental hypermultiplets, and compare it to that of plain BFSS and BMN. I will describe the construction of a broad class of black hole solutions, whose description in supergravity can be trusted at large K and N. By studying an index of the matrix model, I will recover precisely the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of BPS black holes, as a degeneracy of BPS states in the matrix model.
