چکیده
The Bekenstein-Hawking area-entropy relation SBH = A/4 is derived for a class of five-dimensional extremal black holes in string theory by counting the degeneracy of BPS soliton bound states.

Radial geodesics as a microscopic origin of black hole entropy . I : Confined under the Schwarzschild horizon
Causal radial geodesics with a positive interval in the Schwarzschild metric include a subset of trajectories completely confined under a horizon, which compose a thermal statistical ensemble with the Hawking-Gibbons temperature. The Bekenstein–Hawking entropy is given by an action at corresponding geodesics of particles with a summed mass equal to that of black hole in the limit of large mass.
متن کاملDual Brane Pairs, Chains and the Bekenstein-Hawking Entropy
A proposal towards a microscopic understanding of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy for D=4 spacetimes with event horizon is made. Since we will not rely on supersymmetry these spacetimes need not be supersymmetric. Euclidean D-branes which wrap the event horizon’s boundary will play an important role. After arguing for a discretization of the Euclidean D-brane worldvolume based on the worldvolume...
متن کاملMicroscopic Entropy of N=2 Extremal Black Holes
String theory is used to compute the microscopic entropy for several examples of black holes in compactifications with N = 2 supersymmetry. Agreement with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and the moduli-independent N = 2 area formula is found in all cases.
متن کاملMicroscopic derivation of the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy formula for non-extremal black holes
We derive the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy formula for fourand five-dimensional nonsupersymmetric black holes (which include the Schwarzchild ones) by counting microscopic states. This is achieved by first showing that these black holes are U-dual to the three-dimensional black hole of Banados–Teitelboim–Zanelli and then counting microscopic states of the latter following Carlip’s approach. Black...
متن کاملCounting the microstates of a vacuum black ring
The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of an extremal vacuum black ring is derived from a microscopic counting of states. The entropy of extremal Kaluza-Klein black holes with ergospheres is also derived.
