Higher-order corrections to mass-charge relation of extremal black holes

Abstract: We investigate the hypothesis that the higher-derivative corrections always make extremal non-supersymmetric black holes lighter than the classical bound and self-repulsive. This hypothesis was recently formulated in the context of the socalled swampland program. One of our examples involves an extremal heterotic black hole in four dimensions. We also calculate the effect of general four-derivative terms in Maxwell-Einstein theories in D dimensions. The results are consistent with the conjecture.

“…The primary motivation for introducing nonlinear electrodynamics was to remove the divergences in the self-energy of point-like charged particles [24]. However, they have earned renewed attention over past several years since these theories naturally arise in the low-energy limit of the heterotic string theory [25,26]. Recently, the response of a holographic superconductor to an external magnetic field in the presence of Born-Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics was investigated by applying a simple analytical approach based on the matching of the solutions to the field equations near the horizon and near the asymptotic AdS region [27].…”

“…Indeed, in the low-energy limit of the ten-dimensional E 8 × E 8 or SO(32) heterotic string theory with a constant dilaton φ 0 and turning off the higher form fields, the following Lagrangian is realized [3,13]: 5) where the constant α ′ stands for the inverse string tension. The above Lagrangian is a particular case of the one considered here (2.1) with n = 10, Λ = 0, α = α ′ h/8, c 1 = −3α ′ hκ 2 10 /64(< 0), and…”
