| ABSTRACT: |
In recent years we have discovered that black holes in higher dimensions exhibit much richer dynamics than four-dimensional ones. Great progress has been made in five dimensions, while larger dimensions remain largely unexplored territory. I will attempt to provide a bird's-eye view of the current status of the subject. |
