Central charges, black-hole entropy and geometrical structure of N-extended supergravities in D=4

preprint1998arXivOpen access

Abstract

The derivation of absolute (moduli-independent) U-invariants for all N>2 extended supergravities at D=4 in terms of (moduli-dependent) central and matter charges is reported. These invariants give a general definition of the ``topological'' Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for extremal black-holes and reduce to the square of the black-hole ADM mass for ``fixed scalars'' which extremize the black-hole ``potential'' energy.
