Analytic form has been obtained for four-dimensional black holes with a minimal Hawking temperature in a theory with cosmological constant, dilaton and gauge fields. In general dimensions, black hole solutions are shown to exist and their…

Using the D3-brane as the fundamental tool, we adress two aspects of D-branes physics. The first regards the interaction between two electromagnetic dual D-branes in 10 dimensions. In particular, we give a meaning to {\it both} even and odd…
It is pointed out that the energy of the bound states of D-branes and strings is determined by the central charge of the space-time supersymmetry. The universality which is seen at the black hole horizon appears also on the D-brane side:…
We study the static, analytical solution of black holes in the warped DGP braneworld scenario. We show that the linearized field equations and matching conditions lead to solutions that are not compatible with Schwarzschild-(A)dS$_{(4)}$…
We study static BPS black hole horizons in four dimensional N=2 gauged supergravity coupled to $n_v$-vector multiplets and with an arbitrary cubic prepotential. We work in a symplectically covariant formalism which allows for both electric…

$P$-brane solutions of low-energy string actions have traditionally provided the first evidence for the existence of string dualities, in which fundamental and solitonic $p$-branes are identified with perturbative and non-perturbative BPS…
In these lectures we explain the concept of supergravity p-branes and BPS black holes. Introducing an audience of general relativists to all the necessary geometry related with extended supergravity (special geometry, symplectic embeddings…
This review dealt with generalized Melvin solutions for simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras. Each solution appears in a model which includes a metric and $n$ scalar fields coupled to $n$ Abelian 2-forms with dilatonic coupling vectors…
In this paper, we construct multi-scalar, multi-center $p$-brane solutions in toroidally compactified M-theory. We use these solutions to show that all supersymmetric $p$-branes can be viewed as bound states of certain basic building…
We describe the construction of new locally asymptotically (A)dS geometries with relevance for the AdS/CFT and dS/CFT correspondences. Our approach is to obtain new solutions by analytically continuing black hole solutions. A basic…
In a recent paper, we have pointed out a relation between the Killing spinor and Einstein equations. Using this relation, new brane solutions of D=11 and D=10 type IIB supergravity theories are constructed. It is shown that in a brane…
We construct various non-singular p-branes on higher-dimensional generalizations of Taub-NUT and Taub-BOLT instantons. Among other solutions, these include S^1-wrapped D3-branes and M5-branes, as well as deformed M2-branes. The resulting…
We review the construction of regular p-brane solutions of M-theory and string theory with less than maximal supersymmetry whose transverse spaces have metrics with special holonomy, and where additional fluxes allow for brane resolutions…
In this paper we discuss the M-brane description for a N=2 black hole. This solution is a result of the compactification of M-5-brane configurations over a Calabi-Yau threefold with arbitrary intersection numbers $C_{ABC}$. In analogy to…

Two subtle aspects of brane intersections are investigated. The first concerns the `half-branes' that arise in discussions of the Hanany-Witten effect, often in the D0/D8 setting. The second involves the validity of seemingly singular…
The exact general solution for a sigma model having the $2-d$ stringy black hole (SBH) as internal manifold is found in closed form. We also give the exact solution for the massless complex Sine-Gordon (MCSG) model. Both, models and their…
