In these lectures, I will explore the thermodynamic stability of various black holes in gauged supergravity and establish connections with analogous stability phenomena in the quark-gluon plasma. Several of these phase transitions will be linked to solitonic solutions, which will be examined in detail. Given their relevance to cutting-edge research, we will also discuss how these configurations relate to key aspects of neural network architectures.

Guest lecture: Andrés Anabalon Dupuy Andrés Anabalon Dupuy ia theoretical physicist specializing in black holes, wormholes, general relativity, supergravity, and string theory. He earned his PhD from the Universidad de Concepción in 2007 under the supervision of Jorge Zanelli, focusing on the topological foundations of four-dimensional gravity. Prior to that, he completed a B.A. in Applied Physics at the Universidad de Santiago de Chile in 2003, graduating at the top of his class. His academic career includes postdoctoral research at the Centro de Estudios Científicos (CECS) in Chile and the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Germany. He has held numerous visiting professorships at prestigious institutions worldwide, including the École Normale Supérieure in France, KU Leuven in Belgium, Durham University in the UK, and ICTP-SAIFR in Brazil. Currently, he is a Full Professor at the Universidad de Concepción, having previously served at Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, where he progressed from Assistant Professor to Full Professor between 2010 and 2023. His contributions to the field have been recognized with several prestigious awards and fellowships, including the Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship, a CNRS Visiting Professorship, and research grants from Banco Santander and FAPESP. Since 2023, he has also been a member of the advisory board for the PhD program in physics at Politecnico di Torino, Italy.
