Stationary $D=4$ Black Holes in Supergravity: The Issue of Real Nilpotent Orbits

Abstract

The complete classification of the nilpotent orbits of $\mathrm{SO}(2,2{)}^2$ in the representation $(2,2,2,2)$, achieved in \cite{Dietrich:2016ojx}, is applied to the study of multi-center, asymptotically flat, extremal black hole solutions to the STU model. These real orbits provide an intrinsic characterization of regular single-center solutions, which is invariant with respect to the action of the global symmetry group $\mathrm{SO}(4,4)$, underlying the stationary solutions of the model, and provide stringent regularity constraints on multi-centered solutions. The known \emph{almost-BPS} and \emph{composite non-BPS} solutions are revisited in this setting. We systematically provide, for the relevant $\mathrm{SO}(2,2{)}^2$-nilpotent orbits of the global Noether charge matrix, regular representatives thereof. This analysis unveils a composition law of the orbits according to which those containing regular multi-centered solutions can be obtained as combinations of specific single-center orbits defining the constituent black holes. Some of the $\mathrm{SO}(2,2{)}^2$-orbits of the total Noether charge matrix are characterized as "intrinsically singular" in that they cannot contain any regular solution.
