Abstract
We construct black hole attractor solutions for a wide class of N=2 compactifications. The analysis is carried out in ten dimensions and makes crucial use of pure spinor techniques. This formalism can accommodate non-Kaehler manifolds as well as compactifications with flux, in addition to the usual Calabi-Yau case. At the attractor point, the charges fix the moduli according to sum_k f_k = Im(C Phi), where Phi is a pure spinor of odd (even) chirality in IIB (A). For IIB on a Calabi-Yau, Phi=Omega and the equation reduces to the usual one. Methods in generalized complex geometry can be used to study solutions to the attractor equation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
