U-duality between Three and Higher Dimensional Black Holes

چکیده

We show that the D-brane configurations for the five and four-dimensional black holes give the geometry of two and three-dimensional ones as well. The emergence of these lower dimensional black holes from the D-brane configurations for those of higher dimensions comes from the choice of the integration constant of harmonic functions, which decides the asymptotic behavior of the metric and other fields. We show that they are equivalent, which are connected by U-dual transformations. This means that stringy black holes in various dimensions are effectively in the same universality class and many properties of black holes in the same class can be infered from the study of those of the three-dimensional black holes.

Black holes admitting a Freudenthal dual

The quantised charges x of four dimensional stringy black holes may be assigned to elements of an integral Freudenthal triple system whose automorphism group is the corresponding U-duality and whose U-invariant quartic norm ∆(x) determines the lowest order entropy. Here we introduce a Freudenthal duality x→ x̃, for which ̃̃ x = −x. Although distinct from U-duality it nevertheless leaves ∆(x) inva...

Statistical Entropy of Nonextremal Four-Dimensional Black Holes and U-Duality.

We identify the states in string theory which are responsible for the entropy of nearextremal rotating four-dimensional black holes in N = 8 supergravity. For black holes far from extremality (with no rotation), the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is exactly matched by a mysterious duality invariant extension of the formulas derived for near-extremal black holes states.

Statistical entropy of charged two-dimensional black holes

The statistical entropy of a five-dimensional black hole in Type II string theory was recently derived by showing that it is U-dual to the three-dimensional Bañados–Teitelboim–Zanelli black hole, and using Carlip’s method to count the microstates of the latter. This is valid even for the non-extremal case, unlike the derivation which relies on D-brane techniques. In this letter, I shall exploit...

Black Holes and U-Duality

We find the general charged rotating black hole solutions of the maximal supergravities in dimensions 4 ≤ D ≤ 9 arising from toroidally compactified Type II string or M-theories. In each dimension, these are obtained by acting on a generating solution with classical duality symmetries. In D = 4, D = 5 and 6 ≤ D ≤ 9 the generating solution is specified by the ADM mass, [D−1 2 ]angular momentum c...
