Higher-dimensional resolution of dilatonic black-hole singularities
Open accessAbstract
We show that the four-dimensional extreme dilaton black hole with dilaton coupling constant can be interpreted as a completely non-singular , non-dilatonic, black p-brane in (4+p) dimensions provided that p is odd . Similar results are obtained for multi-black-holes and dilatonic extended objects in higher spacetime dimensions. The non-singular black p-brane solutions include the self-dual 3-brane of ten-dimensional N=2B supergravity and a multi-5-brane solution of eleven-dimensional supergravity. In the case of a supersymmetric non-dilatonic p-brane solution of a supergravity theory, we show that it saturates a bound on the energy per unit p-volume of all field configurations of appropriate asymptotic behaviour which are non-singular on some initial hypersurface.

Using results of [15] and [14], it can be shown that (46) is the only solution which is both non-singular and boost-invariant.
“Using the results of Refs.[15] and [14], it can be shown that ( 46) is the only solution which is both non-singular and boost-invariant.”
From Transdimensional tunneling in the multiverse (2010) · cites this paper as [14]
Section 2 says that, for odd p, the maximal analytic extension of the higher-dimensional solution is completely nonsingular. But our copy does not identify the citing paper’s equation (46) or establish that any solution is the only one that is both nonsingular and boost-invariant. The Introduction discusses reduction along a boost, not that uniqueness claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe theory has black brane solutions with the necessary properties.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
