The Spectrum of Static Subtracted Geometries
Tomas Andrade, Alejandra Castro, Diego Cohen-Maldonado
Subtracted geometries are black hole solutions of the four dimensional STU model with rather interesting ties to asymptotically flat black holes. A peculiar feature is that the sol…

Polarised antibranes from Smarr relations
Diego Cohen-Maldonado, Juan Diaz, Fridrik Freyr Gautason
We study the backreaction of smeared and localised anti M2-branes placed at the tip of the CGLP background. To this end we derive a Smarr relation for backreacted antibranes at zer…

From black holes to flux throats: polarization can resolve the singularity
Diego Cohen-Maldonado, Juan Diaz, Thomas Van Riet +1
Supersymmetry-breaking is a key ingredient for string theory models to be phenomenologically viable. We review the strong analogy in the physics and the methods used for describing…
