We express the d=4, N=2 black hole effective potential for cubic holomorphic F functions and generic dyonic charges in terms of d=5 real special geometry data. The 4d critical points are computed from the 5d ones, and their relation is…
We discuss some of the basic features of extremal black holes in four-dimensional extended supergravities. Firstly, all regular solutions display an attractor behavior for the scalar field evolution towards the black hole horizon. Secondly,…
Using higher order corrections we argue that five dimensional N=2 and N=4 small black holes exhibit supersymmetry enhancement in near horizon geometry leading to eight and sixteen supercharges, respectively. Using this enhancement at…
In this paper we review some properties of BPS black holes of supergravities with n=32,16 supersymmetries. The BPS condition, a condition on the eigenvalues of the central charge matrix, can be shown to be U-duality invariant. We explicitly…
We derive and solve the black hole attractor conditions of N=8 supergravity by finding the critical points of the corresponding black hole potential. This is achieved by a simple generalization of the symplectic structure of the special…
We find the general charged rotating black hole solutions of the maximal supergravities in dimensions $4\le D\le 9$ arising from toroidally compactified Type II string or M-theories. In each dimension, these are obtained by acting on a…
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…
A quantum version of 2D super dilaton gravity containing a black hole is constructed for $N>8$. A previous disagreement as to whether this is possible or not is resolved.
We extend the black hole/qudit correspondence by identifying five and six-dimensional 1/2-BPS black string and hole charge vectors in N=8 and N=2 magic supergravities with qubits and qutrits over composition algebras. In D=6, this is…
One would often like to know when two a priori distinct extremal black p-brane solutions are in fact U-duality related. In the classical supergravity limit the answer for a large class of theories has been known for some time. However, in…
We derive the U-duality charge orbits, as well as the related moduli spaces, of "large" and "small" extremal black holes in non-maximal ungauged Maxwell-Einstein supergravities with symmetric scalar manifolds in d=5 space-time dimensions.…
We review some aspects of the attractor mechanism for extremal black holes of (not necessarily supersymmetric) theories coupling Einstein gravity to scalars and Maxwell vector fields. Thence, we consider N=2 and N=8, d=4 supergravities,…
We study the embedding of extreme (multi-) dilaton black hole solutions for the values of the parameter $a=\sqrt{3},1,1/\sqrt{3},0$ in $N=4$ and $N=8$ four-dimensional supergravity. For each black hole solution we find different embeddings…
We connect the attractor equations of a certain class of N=2, d=5 supergravities with their (1,0), d=6 counterparts, by relating the moduli space of non-BPS d=5 black hole/black string attractors to the moduli space of extremal dyonic black…
We consider extremal black hole attractors (both BPS and non-BPS) for N=3 and N=5 supergravity in d=4 space-time dimensions. Attractors for matter-coupled N=3 theory are similar to attractors in N=2 supergravity minimally coupled to Abelian…
We present explicit U-duality invariants for the R, C, Q, O$ (real, complex, quaternionic and octonionic) magic supergravities in four and five dimensions using complex forms with a reality condition. From these invariants we derive an…
We extend previous investigations on the construction of extremal supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric solutions in the H-FGK formalism to "unconventional" solutions with anharmonic terms. We show how the use of "fake" charge vectors…
In this paper we construct the 5 parameter generating solution of N=8 BPS regular supergravity black holes as a five parameter solution of the N=2 STU model. Our solution has a simpler form with respect to previous constructions already…
We find a general class of rotating charged black hole solutions to N=2, D=5 gauged supergravity coupled to vector supermultiplets. The supersymmetry properties of these solutions are studied, and their mass and angular momenta are…
We report on recent advances in the study of critical points of the ``black hole effective potential'' V_{BH} (usually named \textit{attractors}) of N=2, d=4 supergravity coupled to n_{V} Abelian vector multiplets, in an asymptotically flat…
