We solve the dilaton field equation in the background of a spherically symmetric black hole in type II superstring theory with $\alpha'^3$ corrections in arbitrary $d$ spacetime dimensions. We then apply this result to obtain a spherically…

We identify exact gauge-instanton-like solutions to (super)-string theory using the method of dimensional reduction. We find in particular the Polyakov instanton of 3d QED, and a class of generalized Yang-Mills merons. We discuss their…
We discuss the two-dimensional (2D), $\epsilon<2$ extremal ground states of charged black hole. Here $\epsilon$ is the dilaton coupling parameter for the Maxwell term. The complete analysis of stability is carried out for all these extremal…
We derive and analyse the full set of equations of motion for non-extreme static black holes (including examples with the spatial curvatures k=-1 and k=0) in D=5 N=2 gauged supergravity by employing the techniques of "very special…
We calculate the D-instanton corrections (with all D-instanton numbers) to the quantum moduli space metric of a single matter hypermultiplet with toric isometry, in the effective N=2 supergravity arising in type-IIA superstrings…
Quantum non-perturbative geometry of the universal hypermultiplet is investigated. We consider the simple case when the D-instantons, originating from the Calabi-Yau wrapped D2-branes, preserve a U(1)xU(1) symmetry of the universal…
This is a report of our recent investigation on the extremal dilatonic black holes in four dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We found that a global solution can exist only when the dilaton coupling is less than a critical value which can be…
We present a class of solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equations in d-dimensions, all of which are asymptotically (anti)-de Sitter space-times. They describe electrically charged rotating solutions, which are generalizations of those found…

We derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for four-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom extremal black holes in type II string theory. The derivation is performed in two separate (T-dual) weak coupling pictures. One uses a type IIB bound…
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…
We present duality invariant structure of the thermodynamic quantities of non-extreme black hole solutions of torodially compactified Type II (M-theory) and heterotic string in five and four dimensions. These quantities are parameterized by…
We consider the axially symmetric coupled system of gravitation, electromagnetism and a dilaton field. Reducing from four to three dimensions, the system is described by gravity coupled to a non-linear $\sigma$-model. We find the target…
It is argued that in certain 2d dilaton gravity theories there exist self-consistent solutions of field equations with quantum terms which describe extreme black holes at nonzero temperature. The curvature remains finite on the horizon due…
Instanton and seven-brane solutions of type IIB supergravity carrying charges in the Ramond-Ramond sector are constructed. The singular seven-brane has a quantized \RR \ \lq magnetic' charge whereas its dual is the instanton, which is…
We investigate a curved brane-world, inspired by a noncommutative D3-brane, in a type IIB string theory. We obtain, an axially symmetric and a spherically symmetric, (anti) de Sitter black holes in 4D. The event horizons of these black…
We study nonsingular cosmological scenarios in a general $D$-dimensional string effective action of the dilaton-modulus-axion system in the presence of the matter source. In the standard dilatonic Brans-Dicke parameter ($\omega=-1$) with…
We study configurations consisting of a pair of non-extremal black holes in four dimensions, both with the same mass, and with charges of the same magnitude but opposite sign---diholes, for short. We present such exact solutions for…
We consider Einstein-Maxwell gravity in diverse dimensions and construct the small charge perturbation to the extremal rotating black holes with all equal angular momenta in odd $D=2n+1$ dimensions. Exact solutions exist at the…
