Nonextremal black holes are BPS

Abstract: Extremal charged black holes are BPS solutions. It is commonly thought that their nonextremal counterparts are not. Further, experience with BPS solutions in flat spacetime suggests that all BPS solutions are supersymmetric; i.e. that they are invariant under some supersymmetry charges of either the original field theory or an appropriately extended version thereof. Using nonextremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes as counterexamples, we show that neither of these expectations is universally valid. These blac… Show more

“…For a class of non extremal black holes we show that a first order formulation in terms of a prepotential W may exist and we find the corresponding description in terms of first order differential equations. This generalizes the results in [18] to the case of scalar-matter coupled gravity.…”
