Duality, Central Charges and Entropy of Extremal BPS Black Holes

We report on some general results on the physics of extremal BPS black holes in four and five dimensions. The duality-invariant entropy-formula for all $N>2$ extended supergravities is derived. Its relation with the fixed-scalar condition for the black-hole ``potential energy'' wich ext...

description We report on some general results on the physics of extremal BPS black holes in four and five dimensions. The duality-invariant entropy-formula for all $N>2$ extended supergravities is derived. Its relation with the fixed-scalar condition for the black-hole ``potential energy'' wich extremizes the BPS mass is obtained. BPS black holes preserving different fractions of supersymmetry are classified in a U-duality invariant set up. The latter deals with different orbits of the fundamental representations of the exceptional groups $E_{7(7)}$ and $E_{6(6)}$. We comment upon the interpretation of these results in a string and M-theory framework.
