Description
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 orders 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 of
these results to the superconformal index, as well as to other 3d SCFTs
arising from M2-branes.
