At the horizon of a supersymmetricAdS5black hole: Isometries and half-BPS giants

Abstract: The near-horizon geometry of an asymptotically AdS 5 supersymmetric black hole discovered by Gutowski and Reall is analysed. After lifting the solution to 10 dimensions, we explicitly solve the Killing spinor equations in both Poincaré and global coordinates. It is found that exactly four supersymmetries are preserved which is twice the number for the full black hole. The full set of isometries is constructed and the isometry supergroup is shown to be SU (1, 1|1) × SU (2) × U (3). We further study half-BPS con… Show more

“…From the previous section we deduce that its near-horizon geometry in fact preserves 1/2 of the supersymmetries. We thus find that supersymmetry is enhanced in the near-horizon limit, as has been observed in five-dimensional gauged supergravities [32,33,47].…”

“…It would be interesting to study the extension of the near horizon and decoupling limits discussed for non-extremal versions of large AdS black holes [53] having in mind the relevance of giant gravitons as degrees of freedom of their BPS counterparts [22,23] and the related appearance of conformal field theories with target spaces identified as the moduli spaces of supersymmetric giant gravitons [26].…”

“…For the AdS 2 case it is known that there are more general supersymmetric metrics with SO(1,2) symmetry that arise as the near horizon limit of rotating black holes[13,14,15]. It would be interesting to extend our analysis further to include these examples.2 This is not a problem for the specific application of constructing explicit solutions.…”
