Abstract
An algorithm for constructing general static black hole configuration for the theory of N=2, d= 5 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of Abelain vector multiplets is given. The underlying very special geometry structure plays a major role in this construction. From the viewpoint of M-theory compactified on a Calabi–Yau threefold, these black holes are identified with BPS winding states of the membrane around two-cycles of the Calabi–Yau threefold, and thus are of importance in the probing of the phase transitions in the moduli space of M-theory compactified on a Calabi–Yau threefold.
