Black Hole Solutions

We study the BPS black hole solutions of the (truncated) action for heterotic string theory compactified on a six-torus. The O (3,Z) duality symmetry of the theory, together with the bound state interpretation of extreme black holes, is used to generate the whole spectrum of the solutions. The corresponding space–time structures, written in terms of the string metric, are analyzed in detail. In particular, we show that only the elementary solutions present naked singularities. The bound states have either null singularities (electric solutions) or are regular (magnetic or dyonic solutions) with near-horizon geometries given by the product of two 2d spaces of constant curvature. The behavior of some of these solutions as supersymmetric attractors is discussed. We also show that our approach is very useful to understand some of the puzzling features of charged black hole solutions in string theory.

We study the attractor flow and near horizon geometry of two-charge small black holes in heterotic string theory. The Hessian of Sen's entropy function with respect to the moduli fields has standard attractor properties and shows the interesting factorization at the attractor fixed points. We notice that the stability conditions are preserved under arbitrary α′-corrections to the black hole solutions.

Black Hole Information

The entropy and information puzzles arising from black holes cannot be resolved if quantum gravity effects remain confined to a microscopic scale. We use concrete computations in nonperturbative string theory to argue for three kinds of nonlocal effects that operate over macroscopic distances. These effects arise when we make a bound state of a large number of branes, and occur at the correct scale to resolve the paradoxes associated with black holes.

Black Hole Solutions

For extremal charged black holes, the thermodynamic entropy is proportional to the mass or charges but not proportional to the area. This is demonstrated here for dyonic extremal black hole solutions of string theory. It is pointed out that these solutions have zero classical action although the area is nonzero. By combining the general form of the entropy allowed by thermodynamics with recent observations in the literature it is possible to fix the entropy almost completely.

Black Hole Solutions

In this work we construct metrics corresponding to radiating black holes whose near horizon regions cannot be approximated by Rindler space–time. We first construct infinite parameter coordinate transformations from Minkowski coordinates, such that an observer using these coordinates to describe space–time events measures the Minkowski vacuum to be Planckian. Utilizing these results, we construct a family of black holes that radiate at spatial infinity. As an illustration, we study a subset of the black hole solutions and show that they satisfy the null energy condition.

Four-dimensional heterotic string effective action is known to admit non-rotating electrically and magnetically charged black hole solutions. The partition function and entropy is computed for electrically charged black holes and is vanishing in some extremal limit. For the magnetically charged black holes the entropy is also argued to be vanishing in the same extremal limit when these black hole solutions are related by S-duality transformations.

Black Hole Solutions

We show in a precise group theoretical fashion how the generating solution of regular BPS black holes of N=8 supergravity, which is known to be a solution also of a simpler N=2 STU model truncation, can be characterized as purely NS–NS or R–R charged according to the way the corresponding STU model is embedded in the original N=8 theory. Of particular interest is the class of embeddings which yield regular BPS black hole solutions carrying only R–R charge and whose microscopic description can possibly be given in terms of bound states of D-branes only. The microscopic interpretation of the bosonic fields in this class of STU models relies on the solvable Lie algebra (SLA) method. In the present paper, we improve this mathematical technique in order to provide two distinct descriptions for type IIA and type IIB theories and an algebraic characterization of S×T-dual embeddings within the N=8, d=4 theory. This analysis will be applied to the particular example of a four parameter (dilatonic) solution of which both the full macroscopic and microscopic descriptions will be worked out.

Black Hole Solutions

The effective four-dimensional action for string theory contains non-minimal couplings of the dilaton and the moduli arising from the compactification of higher dimensions. We show that the resulting field equations admit multi-black hole solutions. The Euclidean continuation of these solutions can be interpreted as an instanton mediating the splitting and recombination of the throat of extremal magnetically charged black holes.
