This suggested a direct relation between the microstates of4D and 5D black holes, and (invoking [3]) motivated a conjecture of the formZ 5D = Z 4D = |Z top | 2, (1.1)relating a 4D BPS partition function, a 5D BPS partition function and the topologicalstring.
In March 1989 Newton was sentenced to a six-month jail term for misappropriating public funds intended for a Panther-founded Oakland school. In August of that year he was found shot dead on a street in Oakland.
Newton must have left college before August 1665, as his name does not appear in the list of those who received extra commons on that occasion, and he tells us himself in the extract from his commonplace book already quoted that he was forced from Cambridge by the plague in the summer of that year.
