Description

We focus on black branes and toroidal black holes in N = 2 gauged supergravities that asymptote to AdS4, and derive formulas for the mass and central charge densities. We derive the corresponding BPS bound from the superalgebra of the asymptotic vacuum and illustrate our procedure with explicit examples of genuine black brane solutions with non-trivial scalars.
