We construct a family of multi-dyonically charged and rotating supersymmetric AdS$_2\times \Sigma$ solutions of $D=4$, $\mathcal{N}=4$ gauged supergravity, where $\Sigma$ is a sphere with two conical singularities known as a spindle. We…
In this note, we explore holographic attributes of four-dimensional near-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole solutions in ungauged ${\cal N}=2$ supergravity theories at the two-derivative level by recasting them as a specific first-order…
We find a general principle which allows one to compute the area of the horizon of N=2 extremal black holes as an extremum of the central charge. One considers the ADM mass equal to the central charge as a function of electric and magnetic…
We consider the stationary solutions of N=4 supergravity coupled to n vector multiplets that define linear superpositions of non-interacting extremal black holes. The most general solutions of this type are derived from the graded…
We give a rather general recipe for constructing nonextremal black hole solutions to N=2, D=4 gauged supergravity coupled to abelian vector multiplets. This problem simplifies considerably if one uses the formalism developed in…
A five-dimensional dyonic black hole in Type-I theory is considered that is extremal but non-supersymmetric. It is shown that the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of this black hole counts precisely the microstates of a D-brane configuration with…
Recently we showed that in semiclassical 2D dilaton gravity the regularity of a black hole horizon may be compatible with divergencies of Polyakov-Liouville stresses on it, the temperature deviating from its Hawking value. This makes the…
Following the same treatment of Bellucci et.al., we obtain the hitherto unknown general solutions of the radial attractor flow equations for extremal black holes, both for non-BPS with non-vanishing and vanishing central charge Z for the…
We construct new classes of supersymmetric AdS$_2 \times {\Sigma}$ solutions of 4d gauged supergravity in presence of charged hypermultiplet scalars, with ${\Sigma}$ the complex weighted projective space known as a spindle. These solutions…
Some aspects of quantum properties of N=8 supergravity in four dimensions are discussed for non-practitioners. At perturbative level, they include the Weyl trace anomaly as well as composite duality anomalies, the latter being relevant for…
In these lecture notes we describe recent progress in our understanding of attractor mechanism and entropy of extremal black holes based on the entropy function formalism. We also describe precise computation of the microscopic degeneracy…
We study the entropy of non-supersymmetric extremal black holes which exhibit attractor mechanism by making use of the entropy function. This method, being simple, can be used to calculate corrections to the entropy due to higher order…
In arXiv:1207.2679 a new prescription for finding nonextremal black hole solutions to N=2, D=4 Fayet-Iliopoulos gauged supergravity was presented, and explicit solutions of various models containing one vector multiplet were constructed.…
We derive extremal black hole solutions for a variety of four dimensional models which, after Kaluza-Klein reduction, admit a description in terms of 3D gravity coupled to a sigma model with symmetric target space. The solutions are in…
A six-parameter family of five-dimensional black hole solutions is constructed which are labeled by their mass, two asymptotic scalar fields and three charges. It is shown that the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is exactly matched, arbitrarily…
The asymptotic symmetries of the near-horizon geometry of a lifted (near-extremal) Reissner-Nordstrom black hole, obtained by inverting the Kaluza-Klein reduction, explain the deviation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy from extremality. We…
We review some recent work on the existence and classification of extreme black-hole-type solutions in N=8 supergravity. For the black holes considered (those that are also solutions of N=4 supergravity and of the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton…
The entropy of the Reissner-N\"{o}rdstrom black hole is studied within the context of a brane-world scenario. Such a black hole is a solution of the Einstein field equations on the brane, possessing a tidal charge which is a reflection of…
We examine the attractor mechanism for extremal black holes in the context of five dimensional N = 2 supergravity and show that attractor points are unique in the extended vector multiplet moduli space. Implications for black hole entropy…
We use equivariant localization to construct off-shell entropy functions for supersymmetric black holes in $\mathcal{N}=2$, $D=4$ gauged supergravity coupled to matter. This allows one to compute the black hole entropy without solving the…
