Abstract

Using the attractor mechanism and the wavefunction interpretation of the topological string partition function on a Calabi Yau threefold M we study the relation between the Bekenstein‐Hawking‐Wald entropy of BPS Calabi‐Yau black holes and quantum distribution functions defined on H^3^(M). We discuss the OSV conjecture in this context. This talk is based on [1].
