Abstract

We develop a method of constructing generic black hole attractor solutions, both BPS and non-BPS, single-centered as well as multi-centered, in a large class of 4D \(\mathcal{N}\,=\,2\) supergravities coupled to vector-multiplets with cubic prepotentials. The method is applicable to models for which the 3D moduli spaces obtained via c ∗-map are symmetric coset spaces. All attractor solutions in such a 3D moduli space can be constructed algebraically in a unified way. Then the 3D attractor solutions are mapped back into four dimensions to give 4D extremal black holes.
