Phys. Rev. D 57, 1068–1072 (1998)Constant curvature black holesReceived 17 March 1997; published in the issue dated 15 January 1998 Constant curvature black holes are constructed by identifying points in anti–de Sitter space. In n dimensions, the resulting topology is Rn-1×S1, as opposed to the usual R2×Sn-2 Schwarzschild black hole, and the corresponding causal structure is displayed by an (n-1)-dimensional picture, as opposed to the usual two-dimensional Kruskal diagram. The five-dimensional case, which can be embedded in a Chern-Simons supergravity theory, is analyzed in detail. © 1997 The American Physical Society URL:
