Black Holes of D=5 Supergravity

J. P. Gauntlett, R. C. Myers, P. K. Townsend

We discuss some general features of black holes of five-dimensional supergravity, such as the first law of black hole mechanics. We also discuss some special features of rotating s…

World-Volume Interactions on D-Branes

M. R. Garousi, R. C. Myers

We examine in detail various string scattering amplitudes in order to extract the world-volume interactions of massless fields on a Dirichlet brane. We find that the leading low-en…

Cosmological Supergravity from a Massive Superparticle and Super Cosmological Black Holes

M. E. Knutt-Wehlau, R. B. Mann

We describe in superspace a classical theory of two dimensional dilaton supergravity with a cosmological constant, both with and without coupling to a massive superparticle…

Spacetime Duality and Superduality

C. P. Burgess, M. T. Grisaru, M. Kamela +4

We introduce a new class of duality symmetries amongst quantum field theories. The new class is based upon global spacetime symmetries, such as Poincare invariance and supersymmetr…

Large N Phases, Gravitational Instantons and the Nuts and Bolts of AdS Holography

Andrew Chamblin, Roberto Emparan, Clifford V. Johnson +1

Recent results in the literature concerning holography indicate that the thermodynamics of quantum gravity (at least with a negative cosmological constant) can be modeled by the la…

Massive-Scalar Effective Actions on Anti-de Sitter Spacetime

M. Kamela, C. P. Burgess

Closed forms are derived for the effective actions for free, massive spinless fields in anti-de Sitter spacetimes in arbitrary dimensions. The results have simple expressions in te…
