Embedding AdS Black Holes in Ten and Eleven Dimensions
We construct the non-linear Kaluza-Klein ansätze describing the embeddings of the U(1)3, U(1)4 and U(1)2 truncations of D = 5, D = 4 and D = 7 gauged supergravities into the type IIB string and M-theory. These enable one to oxidise any associated lower dimensional solutions to D = 10 or D = 11. In particular, we use these general ansätze to embed the charged AdS5, AdS4 and AdS7 black hole solut...
متن کاملModuli Spaces for Four - and Five - Dimensional Black Holes
We propose a universal expression for the moduli metric of a class of four-and five-dimensional black holes which preserve at least four supersymmetries. These include the black holes that are associated with various intersecting branes in ten and eleven dimensions, the electrically charged black holes of N=2 D=5 and N=2 D=4 supergravities with any number of vector multiplets, and dyonic black ...
متن کاملThe Cardy-Verlinde Formula and Asymptotically Flat Charged Black Holes
We show that the modified Cardy-Verlinde formula without the Casimir effect term is satisfied by asymptotically flat charged black holes in arbitrary dimensions. Thermodynamic quantities of the charged black holes are shown to satisfy the energytemperature relation of a two-dimensional CFT, which supports the claim in our previous work (Phys. Rev. D61, 044013, hep-th/9910244) that thermodynamic...
متن کاملStatistical Entropy of Near Extremal Five-Branes
The Hawking Beckenstein entropy of near extremal fivebranes is calculated in terms of a gas of strings living on the fivebrane. These fivebranes can also be viewed as near extremal black holes in five dimensions. 1 e-mail: [email protected] Recently the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of certain extremal BPS black holes was precisely calculated by counting microstates in string theory [1-4]...
متن کاملEntropy of extremal black holes in two dimensions.
Entropy for two dimensional extremal black holes is computed explicitly in a finite-space formulation of the black hole thermodynamics and is shown to be zero locally. Our results are in conformity with the recent one by Hawking et al in four dimensions. It is known that black holes have temperature and entropy and are therefore amenable to a thermodynamic description. For an asymptotic observe...
