## Abstract We review recent developments concerning supersymmetric black holes in string theory. After a general introduction to the laws of black hole mechanics and to black hole entropy in string theory, we discuss black hole solutions in __N__ = 2 supergravity, special geometry, the black hole

## Abstract We review recent results on near‐horizon static black hole solutions and entropy in __R__^2^‐corrected __N__ = 2 SUGRA in __D__ = 5, focusing on actions connected to heterotic string compactified on __K__3 Γ— __S__^1^. Comparison with Ξ±^β€²^‐perturbative results, results obtained by using
