Duff MJ, 2000, TASI lectures on branes, black holes and anti-de sitter space, Publisher: arXiv
In the light of the duality between physics in the bulk of anti-de Sitterspace and a conformal field theory on the boundary, we review the M2, D3 and M5branes and how their near-horizon geometry yields the compactification of D=11supergravity on S^{7}, Type IIB supergravity on S^{5} and D=11 supergravity onS^{4}, respectively. We discuss the ``Membrane at the End of the Universe''idea and its relation to the corresponding superconformal singleton theoriesthat live on the boundary of the AdS_{4}, AdS_{5} and AdS_{7} vacua. Themassless sectors of these compactifications are described by the maximallysupersymmetric D=4, D=5 and D=7 gauged supergravities. We construct thenon-linear Kaluza-Klein ans\"atze describing the embeddings of the U(1)^4,U(1)^3 and U(1)^2 truncations of these supergravities, which admit 4-chargeAdS_{4}, 3-charge AdS_{5} and 2-charge AdS_{7} black hole solutions. Theseenable us to embed the black hole solutions back in ten and eleven dimensionsand reinterpret them as M2, D3 and M5 branes spinning in the transversedimensions with the black hole charges given by the angular momenta of thebranes. A comprehensive Appendix lists the field equations, symmetries andtransformation rules of D=11 supergravity, Type IIB supergravity, and the M2,D3 and M5 branes.

Cvetic M, Duff MJ, Hoxha P, et al., 1999, Embedding AdS black holes in ten and eleven dimensions, Nuclear Physics B, Vol: 558, Pages: 96-126, ISSN: 0550-3213
We construct the non-linear Kaluza-Klein ansätze describing the embeddings of the U(1)3, U(1)4 and U(1)2 truncations of D = 5, D = 4 and D = 7 gauged supergravities into the type IIB string and M-theory. These enable one to oxidise any associated lower-dimensional solutions to D = 10 or D = 11. In particular, we use these general ansätze to embed the charged AdS5, AdS4 and AdS7 black hole solutions in ten and eleven dimensions. The charges for the black holes with toroidal horizons may be interpreted as the angular momenta of D3-branes, M2-branes and M5-branes spinning in the transverse dimensions, in their near-horizon decoupling limits. The horizons of the black holes coincide with the world-volumes of the branes. The Kaluza-Klein ansätze also allow the black holes with spherical or hyperbolic horizons to be reinterpreted in D = 10 or D = 11.

Duff MJ, Liu JT, Lu H, et al., 1998, Gauge dyonic strings and their global limit, Nuclear Physics B, Vol: 529, Pages: 137-156, ISSN: 0550-3213
We show that six-dimensional supergravity coupled to tensor and Yang-Mills multiplets admits not one but two different theories as global limits, one of which was previously thought not to arise as a global limit and the other of which is new. The new theory has the virtue that it admits a global anti-self-dual string solution obtained as the limit of the curved-space gauge dyonic string, and can, in particular, describe tensionless strings. We speculate that this global model can also represent the world-volume theory of coincident branes. We also discuss the Bogomol'nyi bounds of the gauge dyonic string and show that, contrary to expectations, zero eigenvalues of the Bogomol'nyi matrix do not lead to enhanced supersymmetry and that negative tension does not necessarily imply a naked singularity.
