On the on-shell: the action of AdS4 black holes

Abstract We compute the on-shell action of static, BPS black holes in AdS4 from N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ gauged supergravity coupled to vector multiplets and show that for a certain class it is equal to minus the entropy of the black hole. Holographic renormalization is used to demonstrate that wit...
