    Super-Ehlers in any dimension

    We classify the enhanced helicity symmetry of the Ehlers group to extended supergravity theories in any dimension. The vanishing character of the pseudo-Riemannian cosets occurring in this analysis is explaine...

    Creation of matter in the universe and groups of type E7

    We relate the mechanism of matter creation in the universe after inflation to a simple and universal mathematical property of extended N > 1 supergravities and related compactifications of superstring theory. We ...

    SAM Lectures on Extremal Black Holes in d = 4 Extended Supergravity

    We report on recent results in the study of extremal black hole attractors in N = 2, d = 4 ungauged Maxwell–Einstein supergravities. For homogeneous symmetric scalar manifolds, the three general classes of attrac...

    Black Holes and Supergravity

    These lectures deal with black holes (BHs) in different space–time (s-t) dimensions and their relation to supersymmetry (SUSY). On the same footing of monopoles, massless point-particles, charged massive parti...

    Black Hole Thermodynamics and Geometry

    In the previous section we have seen that, in the context of nV -fold, N = 2, d = 4 MESGT, the fundamental properties of 4-d extreme BHs may be described by the “BH effective potential” function V (z, z; p, q), a...
