Black hole entropy sourced by string winding condensate

Abstract We calculate the entropy of an asymptotically Schwarzschild black hole, using an effective field theory of winding modes in type II string theory. In Euclidean signature, the geometry of the black hole contains a thermal cycle which shrinks towards the horizon. The light excitations thus in...
