Abstract

The first examples of supersymmetric, asymptotically AdS5, black hole solutions are presented. They form a 1-parameter family of solutions of minimal five-dimensional gauged supergravity. Their angular momentum can never vanish. The solutions are obtained by a systematic analysis of supersymmetric solutions with Killing horizons. Other new examples of such solutions are obtained. These include solutions for which the horizon is a homogeneous Nil or SL(2,R) manifold.

Comments

31 pages. v2: References and calculation of holographic stress tensor added. v3: Solutions preserve 2 supersymmetries. Our original claim that they preserve 4 supersymmetries was based on Ref. [30], which contains a mistake (the general timelike solution preserves 2, not 4, supersymmetries). Nothing else affected
