Combining toric geometry techniques and $\mathcal{N}=2$ supergravity formalisms, we study 5D black branes in the M-theory compactification on a four parameter Calabi-Yau threefold. First, we investigate 5D BPS and non-BPS black holes that…

We derive a $U$-duality invariant formula for the degeneracies of BPS multiplets in a D1-D5 system for toroidal compactification of the type II string. The elliptic genus for this system vanishes, but it is found that BPS states can…

Tree level decay amplitudes of near-BPS D-brane configurations are known to exactly reproduce Hawking radiation rates from corresponding black holes at low energies even though the brane configurations describe semiclassical black holes…

We obtain the complete set of constraints on the moduli of N=4 superstring compactifications that permit "rare" marginal decays of 1/4-BPS dyons to take place. The constraints are analysed in some special cases. The analysis extends in a…

We propose brane web configurations for $D$-type and $E$-type $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ little string theories based on a trivalent or quadrivalent gluing of 5-brane web diagrams. Tri-/quadri-valent gluing is a powerful way of computing 5d/6d…

For a given attractor black hole with generic D6-D4-D2-D0-charges in four dimensions we identify the set of supersymmetric branes, static or stationary in global coordinates, of the corresponding eleven-dimensional near horizon geometry.…

We review the recent developments in our understanding of non-BPS states and branes in string theory. The topics include 1) construction of unstable non-BPS D-branes in type IIA and type IIB string theories, 2) construction of stable…

We examine the recently proposed relations between black hole entropy and the topological string in the context of type II/heterotic string dual models. We consider the degeneracies of perturbative heterotic BPS states. In several examples…

We consider BPS states in M theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold with one K\"ahler parameter, and investigate their relation to blackholes and blackrings. On the microscopic side, a characterization of the BPS degeneracy can be…

We examine the dynamics of extended branes, carrying lower dimensional brane charges, wrapping black holes and black hole microstates in M and Type II string theory. We show that they have a universal dispersion relation typical of…

N=8 supergravity has a rich spectrum of black holes charged under the 56 U(1) gauge fields of the theory. Duality predicts that the entropy of these black holes is related to the quartic invariant of the E(7,7) group. We verify this…

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 construct the non-extreme solutions of non-orthogonal intersecting D-branes. The solutions reduce to non-extreme black holes upon the toroidal compactification. We clarify the relation between two configurations with equal mass and…

In these notes we review the theory of the microscopic modeling of the 5-dim. black hole of type IIB string theory in terms of the $D1-D5$ brane system. The emphasis here is more on the brane dynamics rather than on supergravity solutions.…

We discuss a 4-dimensional nonsupersymmetric black hole solution to low energy type IIA string theory which carries D0- and D6-brane charges. For equal charges this solution reduces to the one discussed recently by Sheinblatt. We present a…

We investigate the possibility of obtaining localized black hole solutions in brane worlds by introducing a dependence of the four-dimensional line--element on the extra dimension. An analysis, performed for the cases of an empty bulk and…

We explored a variety of brane configurations in our previous paper within the two derivative truncation of the unstable D9-brane effective theory. In this paper we extend our previous results with emphasis on the inclusion of the higher…

In this note, we explore computational algebraic geometry techniques to compute $14^{th}$ Helicity Trace Index of 4-charge, $\frac{1}{8}$-BPS, $\mathcal{N}=8$ pure D-brane configurations dual to D1-D5-P-KK monopole dyonic black holes. We…

We address the derivation of the effective conformal field theory description of the 5-dimensional black hole, modelled by a collection of D1- and D5- branes, from the corresponding low energy U(Q_1)xU(Q_5) gauge theory. Finite horizon size…

We consider the physics of enhancons as applied to four dimensional black holes which are constructed by wrapping both D-branes and NS-branes on K3. As was recently shown for the five dimensional black holes, the enhancon is crucial in…
