Black p - branes and their Vertical Dimensional Reduction

چکیده
We construct multi-center solutions for charged, dilatonic, non-extremal black holes in D = 4. When an infinite array of such non-extremal black holes are aligned periodically along an axis, the configuration becomes independent of this coordinate, which can therefore be used for Kaluza-Klein compactification. This generalises the vertical dimensional reduction procedure to include non-extremal black holes. We then extend the construction to multi-center non-extremal (D − 4)-branes in D dimensions, and discuss their vertical dimensional reduction.

متن کاملVertical Versus Diagonal Dimensional Reduction for p-branes
In addition to the double-dimensional reduction procedure that employs world-volume Killing symmetries of p-brane supergravity solutions and acts diagonally on a plot of p versus spacetime dimension D, there exists a second procedure of “vertical” reduction. This reduces the transverse-space dimension via an integral that superposes solutions to the underlying Laplace equation. We show that ver...
متن کاملDedicated to the Memory of Abdus Salam
This review considers the properties of classical solutions to supergravity theories with partially unbroken supersymmetry. These solutions saturate Bogomol’nyPrasad-Sommerfield bounds on their energy densities and are the carriers of the p-form charges that appear in the supersymmetry algebra. The simplest such solutions have the character of (p + 1)-dimensional Poincaré-invariant hyperplanes ...
متن کاملEffective spatial dimension of extremal non-dilatonic black p-branes and the description of entropy on the world volume
By investigating the critical behavior appearing at the extremal limit of the non-dilatonic, black p-branes in (d+ p) dimensions, we find that some critical exponents related to the critical point obey the scaling laws. From the scaling laws we obtain that the effective spatial dimension of the non-dilatonic black holes and black strings is one, and is p for the non-dilatonic black p-branes. Fo...

We start with BPS-saturated configurations of two (orthogonally) intersecting M-branes and use the electro-magnetic duality or dimensional reduction along a boost, in order to obtain new p-brane bound states. In the first case the resulting configurations are interpreted as BPS-saturated non-threshold bound states of intersecting p-branes, and in the second case as p-branes intersecting at angl...
