Abstract
The properties of a strange metal fermion model with infinite-range
interactions turn out to be closely related to those of charged black holes
with AdS2 horizons. I show that a microscopic computation of the ground
state entropy density of the fermion model yields precisely the Bekenstein-Hawking
entropy density of the black hole. The fermion model is UV finite and has no supersymmetry
