Black holes and solitons in string theory

open access: yes, 1995
In this review I discuss various aspects of some of the recently constructed black hole and soliton solutions in string theory. I begin with the axionic instanton and related solutions of bosonic and heterotic string theory. The latter ten-dimensional solutions can be compactified to supersymmetric monopole, string and domain wall solutions which break

Revisiting logarithmic correction to five dimensional BPS black hole entropy

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We compute logarithmic correction to the entropy of BPS black holes in asymptotically flat five dimensional space-time using finite temperature black hole geometry and find perfect agreement with the microscopic results and macroscopic computations based

The black hole interpretation of string theory

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 1990
For scattering processes in which both s and t are significantly larger than the Planck mass we have string theory on the one hand, and on the other hand the physics of black hole formation and decay. Both these descriptions are as yet ill understood.

Building the blocks of Schwarzschild

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We demonstrate that the Schwarzschild black hole can be “resolved” into bound states of Reissner-Nordström black holes in four dimensions. These bound states closely resemble the Schwarzschild geometry from the asymptotic region up to an infinitesimal ...

Curvature-corrected dilatonic black holes and black hole -- string transition

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate extremal charged black hole solutions in the four-dimensional string frame Gauss-Bonnet gravity with the Maxwell field and the dilaton. Without curvature corrections, the extremal electrically charged dilatonic black holes have singular ...

String propagation near Kaluza-Klein black holes: an analytical and numerical study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2000
This paper presents a detailed investigation of the motion of a string near a Kaluza-Klein black hole, using the null string expansion. The zeroth-order string equations of motion are set up separately for electrically and magnetically charged black hole backgrounds. The case of a string falling head-on into the black hole is considered in detail.

Large D gravity and low D string via α ′ corrections

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
In this paper, we generalize the correspondence between large D gravity and low D string theory to the most general case, including its T-dual solutions.
